You pour your heart into your little ones every day, but when you look back at family photos, are you in them? Too often, moms are behind the camera instead of in the memories—radiant, present, and connected.
That’s where I come in. I’m Mercae (pronounced Mursay), a Seattle family photographer and fellow mom, here to make sure you are part of your family’s story. With a playful, relaxed approach, I create timeless portraits that celebrate your love while capturing the magic of early childhood.
As a former dance teacher and a mom to a wild little boy with an endless Hot Wheels collection, I get busy, energetic kids. Whether your little one is shy, silly, or full of unstoppable energy, I know how to bring out their true personality—while making the experience easy and joyful for you.

Let’s capture your family’s love in classic, heartfelt portraits you’ll cherish forever.
