Meet Liz - your photographic storyteller who captures every moment, milestone, and memory you want frozen in time. Based in Bloomington, Illinois.

Welcome, friend.  I’m so glad you’re here.

I capture moments - big and small.

From belly to birth, baby to ballet, and beyond … I’ll be there to capture the details and treasured moments for you to cherish for a lifetime.

My job is to be the storyteller behind the lens. And honestly, it’s an important gig that gives me the greatest pleasure and highest honor to be able to document moments big and small.

Pregnancy to Birth

I’ve got all your photography needs covered.

You only meet your baby for the first time, once.

Let’s document that moment.

Take a moment to think about what it would mean to capture your baby safely in your beautiful belly. You’ll be able to share how much you already loved them before you even laid eyes on them through the keepsake photos from your maternity photoshoot.

Now think about the sacredness and vulnerability of birth and just how special that story will be to your family. You only meet your baby for the first time, once. So let’s document that moment and tell the story of how they came into this world. I promise it’ll be classy, beautiful, and private.

Newborn & Milesones - because babies don’t keep, ya’ll.

If you’ve ever spent any time with a baby, you know those features change on a daily (and sometimes hourly) basis. I’m master of taking my time, being low key, and helping everyone, especially babies, feel at ease. Let’s make sure you have every finger, toe, and detail of your sweet baby documented.

Creative Dance Sessions

Your dancer has worked their literal blood, sweat, and tears to be the dancer they are today. They deserve to have their incredible talent captured. Let’s make sure we schedule that session.

Liz Walsh loves photographing high school seniors, like this one featured in a field of golden rods in Central Illinois.

Seniors - this one’s for you

Senior sessions are special. It’s the last photo op of childhood. And let’s be honest - seniors don’t look like the baby they once were. They’re on to adulthood in a few short months.

I love making senior sessions laid back and fun, capturing your personality, hobbies, wishes & dreams. Let’s connect to find out how we can make your senior session special.

Hi friend! I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m Liz - a Central Illinois photographer based in Bloomington, Illinois. Married to my high school sweet heart for *nearly* two decads. Classroom teacher turned homeschool mom to our 3 kids. PMAD survivor turned birth doula. Hobbyist photographer turned passionate professional.

I LOVE telling your story through my lens. Whether it’s capturing the birth of your baby, documenting the newborn features, celebrating milestones in infancy through the highschool years, or capturing the talent of a hardworking dancer, I’m your gal. My superpower as a photographer isn’t only storytelling …. it’s building relationships in a short amount of time. I like to help clients feel comfortable, whether it’s through asking questions, listening to their stories, or making silly faces to capture a genuine smile.

I’m as authentic as they come and love building connections to help tell your story through my lens.
