Photography by Monica Siesener
After years of fertility treatments, a high-risk pregnancy, and a twin birth, Monica Siesener took a break from her part-time photography business to focus on family and her full-time job at a hospital. Looking for a way to be creative with her now 5-year-old twins, she began learning about fantasy composite images and found her niche. “I always consult them about the images that include them,” says Siesener, “and they aren’t afraid to give me their honest opinion.” Now, Siesener creates dreamlike keepsakes for other families, from underwater landscapes to striking animal compositions. “I love seeing the children’s reactions!”
