What you don’t have to do – wear awkward clothes, plastered smile on your face for forever or put your baby on a bean bag.

A photo session with me keeps your baby in your arms, lots of snuggles and kisses and a good dose of dancing and running thrown in. (oh and there’s always times for snacks. 🙂 )

If you are looking for a OKC / Norman family and newborn photographer that will turn your family joy and chaos into beloved heirloom treasures then let’s talk. Time is flying and babies don’t keep. I believe your story matters.

I love a good story…

I’m Charis – a lifestyle family and newborn photographer based out of Norman, Ok, serving the Metro OKC and Central Oklahoma area. I’m a mama to 2, wife to an entruperneur, follower of Jesus and lover of books and coffee. (And by lover of books I mean it…like 5+ bookshelves full)

It’s my delight to capture people’s stories and I am honored to enter in to your family’s story. Whether you are expecting your first little one or already have a row of teenagers, I believe your photos tell your beautiful ordinary magical story. My passion is to give families a fun, relaxed session and delivering quality images you’ll cherish forever.

Your family matters. Your story matters. 

I am passionate about photos that embrace the little details, the in-between, the chaos, the perfectly imperfect.

Love, emotion, beauty – whether in the extra special or the ordinary = it all matters. 

Your ordinary tells a magical story. 

“I just received our gallery full of gorgeous photos and I am in love. Charis did a wonderful job of capturing candid photos of our family showing the fun we have together. She made the evening relaxing and my 3 year old exclaimed that “taking pictures is fun!” Score! These are photos that I will treasure forever. “

~ Krissy (family session)

“Charis stayed flexible and relaxed during our session, despite working with two wiggly preschoolers and a hungry newborn. Thank you, Charis! Our photos are special to us.”

– Marlene (newborn lifestyle session)
