Family Session Experience


When photographing families, my goal is to create images that represent who you are as a family, in this place in time in your lives. It’s all about capturing your love, your heart, your personalities, and your connections to one another. 

We will play, dance, explore, snuggle, and feel all the love. My hope is that these images will be treasures for you and your children, to be enjoyed for generations to come.

Sunset sessions are scheduled one hour before sunset and are approximately one hour long. Sessions are unhurried, I want to give you space to be together and let the genuine connection unfold naturally. 

I take care of finding the perfect location for your session, with gorgeous scenery and lighting to ensure your portraits stand out from the rest. I have several options I know photograph beautifully at different times of the year. I also love the opportunity to shoot somewhere new and am always open to using your private land or going somewhere special to you (travel fees may apply). 

Styling is an essential element in making your photos into a work of art. Full sessions include complimentary access to my growing client closet, as well as access to an online styling tool that helps you curate a cohesive and stylish wardrobe.  You will also receive as much personal help and feedback from me as you need. My hope is to help take the stress and cost out of the styling process.
