DALLAS, TX CHILDHOOD & FamilY Portraits

At Grow Wild Photography, my mission is to capture the natural beauty and heartfelt essence of your family story. Specializing in newborns, childhood, and family photography here in Dallas, TX. I am dedicated to documenting the genuine, wild lifestyle memories that reflect the true spirit of your loved ones.



As a mama myself, I believe in the power of photography to preserve the magic of childhood and the unique journey of growth and development. Through my lens, we celebrate the milestones, the laughter, and the candid connections that make each story so unique.


When I am not behind the lens, I am usually outside exploring with my family or chasing a good sunset!


Also somewhere along the way, I picked up a pretty formal education too.


I hold a Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy and a Bachelor’s degree in Child Development from Texas Woman’s University. With years of experience working with children—including those with autism and developmental differences—I bring a unique blend of professional knowledge and real-life understanding into every session.


This background allows me to create a calm, supportive, and connection-focused experience—so your newborn, child, or family session feels natural, enjoyable, and truly tailored to you.

Parenthood is filled with irreplaceable moments that can slip away with time. I’m here to help you capture the bittersweet growth.

Motherhood

My journey into motherhood and entrepreneurship happened side by side. I became a mom while in OT school, learning to balance textbooks and tiny hands all at once. That experience lit a fire in me—not just to help children grow through my work as a pediatric occupational therapist, but to create something of my own.

Photography

Over time, my passion for child development, creativity, and connection led me to where I am now: a creative entrepreneur, photographer, and community-builder. It hasn’t always been easy, but every step—both as a mother and a business owner—has shaped the heart behind everything I do today.

Hailey is wonderful to work with and you will be pleased with your photos. There is nothing easy about taking pictures of kids, but Hailey gets it (she a momma!).
