Tampa Portrait Photographer Specializing in Newborn & Family Photography

Tampa Portrait photographer

Hello, I'm Tina

I came to photography through an unusual path as a certified neonatal therapist and Pediatric SLP working with fragile newborns in the NICU and helping families navigate infant feeding challenges.

When I picked up a camera, I brought that clinical expertise with me. I understand infant state regulation, feeding cues, and developmental stages in ways that shape how I approach every session. I know which newborn positions are medically sound and developmentally appropriate. I recognize when babies need breaks before they start crying. I understand toddler behavior and teenage communication styles.

This expertise creates sessions that are safer for newborns, calmer for toddlers, and actually enjoyable for reluctant teens and partners. Combined with museum-quality products and personalized styling, you get an experience and artwork that reflects the boutique, full-service approach Tampa Bay families expect.

"Tina is a fantastic photographer and really knows how to put you at ease. We had the pleasure of having her do our newborn, cake smash, and family photos, and of course, they turned out amazing. I’m so happy that she got to capture such special family memories to look back on"

— Lindsay J. 

What Makes My Photography Experience Different

As a Tampa newborn and family photographer with Certified Neonatal Therapist training and Pediatric SLP credentials, I bring clinical expertise to every session. This means safer newborn positioning, sessions that follow your baby's natural state and feeding cues, and an understanding of child development from infants through teenagers.

Serving Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Lutz, and Odessa, I create boutique, white glove experiences with personalized styling resulting in museum-quality heirloom artwork, not just digital files buried in your phone.

clinical expertise applied to photography

My NICU training and Pediatric SLP background mean I recognize infant state regulation cues, understand feeding schedules and developmental stages, and know which newborn positions are medically sound. This clinical knowledge creates safer, calmer sessions with better outcomes.

heirloom artwork, not just files

boutique luxury without pretension

Museum-quality prints on archival paper. Custom framing options. Legacy albums your family will pass down for generations. These aren't photos for scrolling. They're artwork for your walls and your family's story.

Full-service personal styling. Wardrobe consultation. Pre-session planning. You'll walk into your session feeling confident, prepared, and knowing exactly what to expect because I've designed the entire experience to eliminate stress, not create it.
