Document the moments that mean the most

FAMILY TIME CAN NEVER BE REPLACED

I’LL TREAT your KIDS WITH

love & care

I know that families aren’t one-size-fits-all, and I appreciate that differences make photos even more beautiful. I want to capture your family just as you are - those are the memories you’ll want to keep over manufactured moments. To give you true-to-you photos, I take the time to customize every session and get to know each member of your family. The chaos of childhood is welcome here as I employ child-centered techniques to help the little ones feel invested in your photo session and ready to participate.

SO WHAT DO YOU SAY? LET’S MAKE SOME MAGIC.

DO YOU HAVE A CHILD WITH special NEEDS?

I’LL HELP YOU CAPTURE THE PHOTOS YOU’VE ALWAYS WANTED

To capture joyful and loving photos, your child needs to feel comfortable in their environment. I know from personal experience how to make these children feel at home and safe, and would love to discuss an additional plan to support any physical or developmental needs. Your family is beautiful, and I can tell you with unwavering certainty that your experience will be a positive one.

Within 2 weeks following your photo session, I will meet with you in your home for your Print and Design appointment. We’ll take the time to go through every little detail to ensure that you’re head over heels in love with your final products.

• A complete walk-through of each print and product (this means we’ll sit
down and go through all of your options - materials, borders, pages, etc.)

• Professional photo retouching

WHAT MAKES THIS INVESTMENT WORTH IT?

WHY DO YOU OFFER A PRINT + DESIGN SESSION?

I believe that your photo session is an experience, but should result in tangible keepsakes that you can hold onto for a lifetime. That means that all of your photos are purchased separately via a collection. Your session fee only covers the planning and photo coverage - your collection will include all of the digital and print products that you’d like to purchase.  It also allows you the opportunity to purchase only what you love after seeing your photos.

WHY DO YOU OFFER A PRINT + DESIGN SESSION?

Photography only increases in value as time goes on. There are so many amazing moments in your life that you can’t get back, so they solely exist as memories. When these moments are committed to film, you’re able to surround yourself with tangible pieces to bring you back in time. Filling your home with your favorite people and favorite experiences will increase the joy you feel every single day.
