Tailored portraits designed for your family’s story
Seatle Family Photographer
These tender years won’t pause—let’s turn them into photographic artwork, before they slip quietly into memory.
The days with your little ones slip by faster than we expect. My work is about helping you create the perfect opportunity to create connection and see the beauty in this fleeting season, capturing your family’s story and turning it into keepsakes delivered to your home. As a Seattle family photographer, I create timeless, vintage-inspired portraits that feel like home and become heirlooms for generations.

Our family's craziness turned into magic in our photos.
from the heart of past clients
Alongside your digital images, you will benefit from the option of store credit to purchase heirloom keepsakes that will last for generations to come. From albums to prints, my goal is for your images to be passed down and last a lifetime.
DIGITAL GALLERIES turned heirloom art
I’ll guide you with styling and playful prompts so your session feels more like family time than posing. These lighthearted moments are often the ones parents treasure most. Sessions are limited and often book weeks in advance—I’d love to hold a spot for you.
playful and joyful
Whether you imagine your session in home, outdoors or in a beautiful, thoughtfully designed studio, I will help guide your experience to create timeless, enduring portraits you can fill your home with. Clients appreciate the curated, seamless experience tailored to each family's unique story.

My photoshoot with Lilac and Ivy Photography was the best experience I have had with a professional photographer to date. I had requested before hand that she not include my sons face in any published work which she agreed to with no questions.
Not only is Mercae an incredibly talented photographer but she is also so creative, professional and passionate about what she does. My experience with her was 10/10! I would highly recommend Mercae for all of you photography needs.
