Alright, let’s get real—when was the last time you had a family photoshoot that didn’t involve someone blinking, a rogue toddler meltdown, or your thumb over the lens.
If you’re waiting for the perfect moment to book a session, spoiler alert: life is messy, unpredictable, and beautifully imperfect. And that’s exactly why now is the best time to capture it!
But My Kids Won’t Sit Still!
Good! I don’t want them to! I specialize in capturing the belly laughs, the sweet snuggles, and the in-between moments that make your family your family. Think tickle fights, piggyback rides, and the way your little one clings to your leg like a koala—those are the moments you’ll want to remember.
What If We’re Not “Photo Ready?"
News flash: You are always photo ready. Smiles on cue? Overrated. Bring your authentic, beautiful chaos, and I’ll turn it into magic. Trust me, the best photos happen when you’re just being you (no matching outfits required!).
Why Hire a Professional Photographer?
Let’s be honest—family photos take work. And no one really wants to do it except maybe one partner (until you find a photographer who makes it easy and fun for everyone). But if you’re already putting in the effort—getting dressed, putting on makeup, wrangling the kids—why settle for photos that won’t do your family justice?
A professional photographer knows how to work the camera, the light, and the angles to make sure your images are not just good, but frame-worthy. These are photos you can print in any size, hang on your walls, and treasure forever.
Finding the Right Photographer Matters
Not all photographers are created equal! You want someone who gets families—someone who can handle wiggly toddlers, unimpressed tweens, and even dogs with a mind of their own. If your photographer doesn’t regularly work with kids, they may not know how to break through those teen eye rolls or get that perfect giggle from your shy little one. I will also help you with natural posing so you'll never not know what to do.
As for styling, we'll discuss well in advance and go over anything you might already own first. If you're feeling more adventurous or want to take out the guess work, my Client Closet is available, too.
I'll also guide you on a location that suits your family style. From moody beaches to sunny parks, I'm always pushing limits when it comes to natural lighting, so we pick a time and place that works best for you and fits your family vibe!
Hiring a family photographer means YOU get to be in the pictures, too. No more being stuck behind the camera while everyone else makes memories. Instead, you’ll be part of the adventure, part of the fun, and most importantly—in the frame.
What Happens After the Session?
Your photographer’s job doesn’t end when the camera clicks off. With me, you’ll get a beautifully curated gallery of the best images. We’ll work together to pick the perfect prints, ensuring they fit your home’s style and look amazing on your walls. I even offer an in-home consultation to help you visualize everything!
This is Why We Do Family Photography
Because your memories deserve more than just sitting as digital files on your computer or phone. With professional prints from a high-quality lab (not a wonky drugstore print job), your photos will be as stunning in real life as they are in your heart.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s make some memories together—before your kids grow another six inches overnight! (Because we both know they will.)
