INTRODUCING

Leaving

Your Legacy

Capturing Mothers with their Daughters and the Love that Binds them.

Untitled (600 x 600 px) (1)_edited.jpg

Time Moves Fast—But Portraits Pause It

Your daughter won’t always be this age. And neither will you. (We know, rude.) But a legacy portrait session captures you both right now, exactly as you are. It freezes this chapter so you can revisit it again and again—even when life has moved on.

FUTURE YOU WILL BE SO GLAD YOU DID

Turning Love Into Art

A legacy portrait session is a customized, intimate photoshoot that celebrates you—your journey, your strength, your softness, your legacy.

Whether you book a mother-daughter photoshoot, a generational session with grandma, or a solo legacy shoot to honor a milestone, the goal is the same:

 

To capture the real, radiant, resilient woman you are right now.

You’ll walk away with portraits that future generations will hold dear.

You deserve a thoughtful moment when you step in front of the camera with the people you love most

Your most cherished memories deserve a place in your home, not just your phone 

These intentional and beautiful photos will live on, for future generations to reflect on and enjoy

TESTIMONIALS

How Mothers Feel About Their Leaving Your Legacy Session

Words can not express how GREAT I think Pink Owl & Geni are! Geni is a genius at many things but posing is her super power! For years I hated every photo taken of me. By chance we hired Pink Owl for a store opening of Moon and Lola 10 years ago and we have worked with Pink Owl ever since! I have learned so much about posing, trusting Geni's vision, the attributes of a photo that keeps our photos on brand and more!

I am so so grateful for the opportunity to be photographed with my daughter. It has become very important to me after losing my father to have pictures with my girls at every stage of their lives. I unfortunately don’t have many pictures with my dad and it breaks my heart every day, so I want to leave a different legacy with my daughters.

Geni is an incredibly talented photographer and really gets the bond between a mother and daughter because she is both. She related to my daughter and made her feel so comfortable in-front of the camera — which made me feel comfortable too. If you’re a mom, you totally get that.  Choosing which pictures to hang up was the only hard part of the process.

Geni is the best!! The entire experience from start to finish is professional, personal, flexible and fun!! My younger daughter is shy. She does not enjoy being in the spotlight but Geni made her feel so comfortable and really gave her the guidance she needed to pose and come out of her shell!! Geni has a really fun, chill, easy going nature so you never feel rushed! And the hair and makeup came out terrific both times!!! We highly recommended Geni and her staff!

Honoring My Mother
Through Leaving Your Legacy

In October of 2024 I lost my Momma to a short 7 month battle with cancer. It was unexpected, shocking, and took us all by surprise. Both of my grandmothers are 95 years old, and have zero health issues. In my mind, my Mom was on the same path.
 
I guess that's how we all think in some way. We know that life is short, but it isn’t always a reality for you, until you experience a great loss.
 
As I prepared for her celebration of life and started digging to find portraits of her, I was struck by a realization. The only professional portraits I had of my Momma and me were from 7 years ago when I forced her to do a 3-generation photoshoot with my oldest daughter and myself.
 
Looking back now, I'm SO thankful I made us do this, and I'm equally as mad at myself for not finding the time to do it again after my 2nd was born.

To begin healing after her death I found myself diving into my work, asking the question "how I can take this great loss, and use it for good?" 

Each time my mind always found its way back to our portrait together, my most cherished possession now. I knew that's what I needed to do. I needed to create a space where Mothers & Daughters could come together to leave their legacy. A space where I can both honor my Mothers Legacy and share the joy & kindness with others she always brought to the world. 

Leaving Your Legacy is my way of honoring my mother.

Hi I’m Geni, 

I’ve been a portrait photographer for over 16 years, but my love for photography started long before that. When I was 8 years old, I would dress up my sisters, do their hair, and create little “sets” in our living room using my mom’s houseplants. We joke about it now, that I am literally living out my 8 year old dream every day! For the past 13 years, I’ve had the honor of helping high school senior girls feel seen, celebrated, and confident in front of the camera. That work has brought me so much joy—but after losing my Mom in 2024, my purpose began to shift. Thru the process of learning how to grieve, I turned to my art. I asked myself how I could use this loss to create something meaningful, not only for myself but for others. That’s when Leaving Your Legacy was born—a portrait experience dedicated to honoring the powerful bond between mothers and daughters. Today, I pour my heart into creating images that are more than just portraits. They’re love, connection, and legacy—preserved for generations to come.

Because You Deserve to Exist in Photos—Together

Don't rely on scattered phone pics to remember the way things were. You deserve to exist in photos that reflect the love, connection, and strength you share.
