Boise Maternity Photographer

Hi, I’m Tamara

(Yes, appropriately, my name rhymes with camera.)

I live in a cozy pocket of Boise’s Northend in a quaint 1950’s home.
I specialize in lifestyle family photography because I want to capture your family as you really are – but at your best.

Why Work With Me

Real

We meet where your life happens. Your porch. Your park. Your hangouts. A pretty park.

Relaxed

Unhurried, without pretense or script. During our shoot, I seek to witness what’s already there: a genuine connection, real laughter, that little sparkle that shows in the eyes. That magic comes through in an image when you’re relaxed and forget that I’m there.

Bright

All the brilliance of life, in photographic form.

Testimonials

We have been using Tamara for our family photos for the last 8 years. She is professional, personable, great with kids, and talented to boot. At every single one of our photo shoots she does a wonderful job of helping the whole family feel so relaxed — we play and chat and have FUN together while she is busy snapping photos – and the results are always AMAZING. She does a great job with my children and they LOVE “Tamara Camera”. I cherish all of the images she captures for us.
Marybeth Johnston
Tamara is a great photographer – she put us at ease with a fun, efficient, and creative shoot to capture headshots for several individuals and a group. I love how they came out. Thank you, Tamara!
Angie Callen
We had an absolutely delightful experience with Tamara. She made taking pictures of a newborn and a toddler seem effortless. She was SO great with both kids (and us) but especially our toddler who we were worried wouldn’t be having any of it. I highly recommend Tamara for your picture taking needs, but especially for family photos. She was prompt, gave us direction which is what we all needed and made us all feel so comfortable. Will be calling her for future photography needs!
Alexandra Kane
Tamara is the best! Shes done our family photos and my professional headshots and both are so lovely. She can even capture exquisite family photos when your two small children are in the middle of turning into overstimulated gremlins— which is a true talent.

Frequently Asked Questions

If it is your first baby, I’d suggest around 8 months (32 weeks) and if it isn’t your first, around 7 months. First time pregnancies tend to take longer for that little bump to pop out, though everyone is different.

This simply means less formal and more movement. There is still some staging involved, but we are still able to create a little more of a natural look. I want to capture your family as you really are – but at your best.

After booking, I will ask you a series of questions to determine the best place based on your vision.

Location is not as important as you think, lighting is. A lot of people get really stressed out about finding a new place to shoot every year. Sometimes we can shoot in the same places but different times of year and have a totally new look. As long as we are looking for good lighting, we can shoot almost anywhere.

This is totally a personal preference. I personally love late summer sessions, but a lot of people love spring and fall. If you don’t care about fall colors, I suggest shooting in the summer. The weather is way more predictable. We tend to shoot early in the morning or later in the evening for these sessions. This helps beat the heat and we often have beautiful lighting.
