Live ducklings.
A custom-built pond. Pure, unscripted wonder.
I capture the magic and
create heirloom art.
This age is fleeting. These portraits are forever.

Experience
Try fishing. Hang out on the dock. Twirl the white umbrella.
And at the end? Most kids happily climb right in—gloriously, joyfully soaked.
Pure childhood. Captured forever.
Storybooks
PORTRAITS: Your favorite moments, finished into artwork that doesn’t just hang on the wall — it owns it.
The kind your kids grow up walking past…
and one day argue over who gets to take it home.
STORYBOOKS (Albums): When the images are this good, choosing just one feels impossible.
A custom-designed album gives you every favorite moment, beautifully laid out.
Nothing left behind.

Why families love
Ducklings
Thank you.
I can't wait to connect with you about creating something truly magical for your family.
There's nothing quite like watching a child meet a duckling for the first time—and I'm honored you're considering capturing that moment with me.
I'll be in touch within the next day or so.
In the meantime, start imagining where that portrait will hang.
(Trust me—it makes the decision even sweeter.)

Behind the Duckling
Experience
YOUR ARTWORK WILL BE CREATED BY KATHY MORLEY
I've been doing this for over 20 years.
I've photographed kids with ducklings—then years later, their senior portraits. Some have already graduated college. (It happens faster than you think.)
Here's the thing:
There's something about a child holding a live duckling that makes them forget the camera—and just be.
The wonder. The gentleness. The focus.
That version of your child? The one who still sees ducklings as magic?
That won't last.
The portraits will.
