Waldorf School Photography

Thoughtful, unobtrusive imagery that honors the rhythm of the classroom.

For the past 15 years, my own children have attended Waldorf schools. This education has shaped our family’s daily life, our seasonal rhythms, and the way I see childhood.

I’ve also had the privilege of photographing Sacramento Waldorf School, Camellia Waldorf School, and Summerfield Waldorf School and Farm.

Waldorf education is not simply a niche I market to — it is a community I deeply understand.

I approach each school day quietly and respectfully, capturing genuine moments of engagement without interrupting the flow of the classroom.

My Philosophy

Waldorf classrooms are living spaces.

The light changes throughout the day.
The work is tactile and purposeful.
Children move with intention.

My goal is not to stage or overly direct.

It is to observe and document:

• The concentration during handwork
• The warmth of circle time
• The quiet pride of practical arts
• Outdoor exploration and seasonal rhythms
• Teachers guiding with presence and care

The imagery should feel as grounded and authentic as the education itself.

How Schools Use the Images

Strong visual libraries support:

• Admissions materials
• Website refreshes
• Seasonal newsletters
• Fundraising campaigns
• Social media communication
• Printed brochures and viewbooks

Rather than scrambling for images each year, schools benefit from a cohesive collection that reflects the depth and beauty of daily life on campus.

What It’s Like to Work Together

Before photographing, I meet with your team to understand what season of growth your school is in.

Are you:
Launching a new program?
Refreshing your website?
Entering an enrollment season?

Together, we identify what imagery will serve you best.

On campus, I work efficiently and quietly, mindful of preserving the classroom atmosphere.

Delivery is organized and easy for your team to access.


About Me

With over 15 years of professional photography experience, including national commercial work, I bring both artistic sensitivity and strategic understanding to each project.

Having worked in nonprofit communications as well, I understand how valuable it is to have strong visual assets readily available.

If your school is considering updated imagery this year, I would be honored to connect.

Whether you are planning a full website refresh or simply want to begin building a stronger visual library, I’m happy to schedule a brief conversation to explore what would be most supportive.
