What Our Family Sessions Are Like
What can you expect during a family photo shoot with me? You can expect a lot of interaction with each other, guidance from me, laughing, tickling, and playing! I adore natural and real interactions, so my goal is to keep the kids happy and engaged the whole time!

What "Style" of Family Photography Do You Offer?
I am a lifestyle/documentary/portrait photographer. This means that I not only capture images where "everyone is looking at the camera", but I also capture real interactions between family members. I document your family as I see it and give it back to you in a beautiful way.

Time of Day Matters

I prefer for family sessions in a nature setting to take place during the magical "golden hour" within 90 minutes of sunset. Yes, kiddos do fine, trust me. My sessions are not the type where the children will be standing in one place and "smile at the photographer, Susie." They will be playing and exploring a lot of the time. Please trust that the lighting is the MOST critical part of your session. I've never been unable to get gorgeous images of children during this time. If you are not open to the golden hour, I only offer morning sessions at select locations where the lighting is softer due to the environment such as an urban location. No open fields will be offered at any other time than the golden hour. Just get in touch, and we will find the perfect location for you.
