Relaxed - Fun - Family Photography
I love to capture fun, relaxed family photos in beautiful light! These moments are the memories we will treasure. Things don’t have to be perfect for us to have an amazing family session! Don’t stress, come and be prepared to have fun! I love candid, authentic moments that tell your family's story!
My approach to Family Sessions
I believe natural light from the sun and its reflections create photographs that feel fresh, timeless, and most true to life!
Whether you want a session outdoors or in the comfort of your own home, utilizing natural light and our surroundings helps our subjects stay comfortable in front of the camera. I typically start off by posing your family for the perfect portrait and as I guide you through candids I will also be photographing the moments as they unfold naturally. I am happy to capture different breakdowns between family members are also covered. I love to create a simple portrait list prior to each session so we don’t miss any important family combinations. This a fun experience for everyone and I help make it easy by being silly, making the kiddos giggle, and making things move along swiftly.

You’re also encouraged to send us photos of outfit choices if you’re having trouble! I will be in touch a few days before your session should the weather look questionable and plan accordingly.
