Family Portrait Session

Family sessions are a combination of casual lifestyle photography with lightly directed portraits. I like to photograph you acting naturally and having fun in a comfortable environment, but I will also give subtle suggestions and guide you into positions that make for great portraits.

 

I’d love to get to know you and your family because I want you to love your photos! We will discuss the location, your family’s clothing selections, prop options and your vision.

During our session, children are encouraged to run around, play and be silly.

 

Family sessions start at $500.

 

For large families, please inquiry.

 

$200 non-refundable retainer fee is required to secure a date.

 

The rest of the fee is due on session day.

 

Print ordering is optional and prints start at $50.

May is a special month for me… it’s when this little dream of mine officially began.📸

This month marks 11 years since I started my photography business — and what a journey it has been! ❤️

From my very first session to now, I’ve had the honor of capturing thousands of memories, meeting incredible families, watching little ones grow, and building a business that means so much to me. 🫠

Thank you to every client who has trusted me with your moments, big and small. Your support has shaped this business and my heart in more ways than I can say. 🙏🏻❤️

Every beautiful memory starts with a cozy, welcoming space. 🌿✨ 

My studio is designed to keep your little one safe, comfortable, and oh-so-snuggly while I capture their sweetest moments. 💕 

From tiny toes to sleepy smiles, these first days fly by—but the photos last forever. 💫
