Get to know the photographer

Hi! I am Selena Medenblik! I am married to my best friend and high school sweetheart, Chad. We have 5 beautiful children, who keep us busy, but our home and hearts are filled with joy because of these sweet kids.

I have loved photography for as long as I can remember! I have always loved cameras and trying to capture all the big and little moments of life. I had aspirations of becoming a photographer after high school, but I never took classes or bought a manual camera. I ended up with a master's degree in speech pathology. I have worked as a pediatric  speech-language pathologist (SLP) for the last 10 years and love what I do. I transitioned to part time when I had my own children, which allows me a little more time to partake in this amazing photography hobby on the side.

Fast forward to 2020. The year of COVID. Our second child was born March 2020 and because of all the restrictions we were unable to have newborn pictures taken until June. So I took out my camera and attempted my own newborn photos. It took another year and a lot of encouragement from my husband before I took the leap to buy a manual camera and take a class on how to use it. I wanted to be able to capture all the big and small moments of my own children for years to come.

In October 2021, I offered my very first mini sessions and I have not looked back since. I love working with families to be able to capture a moment in time that can be treasured for years to come. I love working with children and trying to capture their personalities, silly faces, sweet moments, and bright smiles. I would love to work with you and your family!
