memories together are a priceless gift

The Family Experience

Every family has a unique story to tell and your family is no different! Our goal is to offer moving family portraits that are visually stunning and timeless, bringing a smile to your face each time you see them displayed in your home. 

Our aim isn't to capture the "perfect picture" but to capture perfectly the love and connection of your family so that it can be savored and remembered for years to come. In this 1 hour session—typically in the early evening golden-hour light— I often choose to "unpose" our families or pose them in natural and interactive ways so that real emotion shines through. I will work with you on all the details from outfits to location to ensure that you have both a memorable experience together and photos to treasure for generations.

Q: What if the weather is bad? 

A: I want the best possible weather for you! I'll be watching the forecast, and we'll connect the day before or the morning of the session if weather looks like it might be a problem. We can always reschedule to ensure you get the session you deserve! 

Q: What Should we wear?

A: Don't stress. I will work with you to ensure that you are completely confident in your wardrobe choices. I also provide styling guides, resources, and tips to help you out.  You are welcome to explore my client closet too!

Q: Can I choose our location? 

A: Together, we'll choose the best location for the season, desired style, and weather. I have numerous options that we can choose from.

Q: my KID won't cooperate. HELp!

A: A fun, relaxing, and memorable experience is required for great photos. So, we won't force your kid into it. I have a "bag of tricks" that always gets kids laughing and smiling for those wonderful natural moments of connection.  

Q: Isn't sunset too late for kids?

A: Lighting is a top priority and is essential for great photos. That's why I shoot at "golden hour" when the sun is at its lowest point. This light is perfect for producing photos with a soft glow and warm skin tones. 

Typically, when kids are outside and having fun, they do great!

Q: CAN WE CHANGE OUR OUTFITS?

A: Sure! As long as it fits within the alloted time for the session, I welcome outfit changes.
