About Me: Combining my greatest loves of family, the Gulf Coast outdoors, and photography, Swetman Photography specializes in children’s custom portraiture, newborn photography, and family sessions.
I’m learning that entrepreneurship and creativity can go hand in hand – one
is just as important as the other in
my business. I’m constantly striving to streamline my processes and upgrade the client experience. Whether it’s enclosing a handwritten thank you
note with print orders, providing personalized styling and out t direction, or incorporating meaningful family heirlooms into a shoot, I rmly believe that exquisite attention to detail is what sets me apart.
My signature classic style and traditional custom technique capture the essence of a child’s spirit, without appearing contrived or too posed. I aim for authenticity in my portraits, and love taking formal images, as well as pictures that capture fun times, sweet personalities, and spunky dispositions. Newborn sessions hold a special place in my heart, and I love nothing more than photographing a family’s newest love at my fully-equipped newborn studio in Ocean Springs.
Childhood is so precious and so eeting, I’m honored each and every time a family selects Swetman Photography to capture their sacred memories.

About Me: My greatest business strengths are honesty, dependability, hardworking, passionate and caring. I am also bilingual (Spanish-English) and know the Hispanic Culture because I am part of it. I have lived in the U.S. for over 20 years.
I am driven to be the best at what I
do and want to continue growing my business by innovation and education. In 5 years I want to be able to reach and educate every person in my community and teach them that home ownership is very possible and achievable
The best advice I’ve ever received is do what you love to do, and the rest will follow.
I chose this particular business because:
As a wife and busy mother of three, it gives me exibility. I also love to help people achieve perhaps their biggest dreams in fun, interactive ways.
If I ruled the world, I would...
• Make the world safe.
• End hostility and hatred.
• Make schools accessible to everyone. • Make colleges and universities more
affordable.
