Your family is growing & changing every day.
The way you look at each other when you're laughing is the exact moment I want to preserve
so you can see what I see,
that you're doing an amazing job
and your family is truly so inspiring.

When all you really need is a beautiful updated family portrait, this session keeps things simple. We'll create a relaxed collection of posed and candid images without asking little ones to stay engaged longer than they want to.
Most families are finished in about 45 minutes.
For the family who wants beautiful portraits plus room to enjoy being together.
$700 || 35 edited images
We'll capture the portraits everyone wants framed on the wall then leave room for kids to play, grandparents to cuddle babies, and all the little moments in between.
We'll go until we run out of smiles :-)
Most families spend about an hour together.
For families who want to remember how this season felt.
$950 || full curated gallery
With extra time together, there's space to let your family's personalities unfold naturally.
We'll move at your family's pace and create a gallery that shows this season of life.
Most families need around 90 minutes to capture the evening.



















You can relax.
Your whole family is in clean clothes, you made it to the spot, you showed up, now you can let me take the reins. You can't help but look around though, wondering how this is going to go...
Your 6-year-old either hides behind your legs or heads straight for the creek.
You immediately envision disaster.
But just for a minute, imagine if we do end up with soggy shoes and sticks. What if these joyful family moments actually result in photos of pure delight, muddy shoes and all?
Imagine if someone in your crew is slow to warm up, but your patience pays off. We’ll play games that get everyone moving, interacting, and discovering our way together.
What if the things you’re most nervous about happening might just turn into your favorite photos in the entire gallery?
Trust the process. It may feel like herding feral cats at times (my own family photos always do!), but you can trust the process. We'll start with the large group photos while everyone is a bit inhibited and on their best behavior. Then we'll transition into smaller groupings and prompts that help get natural expressions. We'll even let the squirrely kids get the wiggles out with silly games before the next pose. Before you know it, you'll forget we're there for family pictures because you're actually having fun.
Go home remembering why you came.
These people - little, medium, and big - are your safe place, your home, your family. You would give your left arm to help one of them if you had to. Fortunately you don't have to :-)
The easiest things to give them are your time, your attention, and photographs that last a lifetime.
