Different from posed family portrait sessions you may have done before, this super fun, laid back photo session tells the story of your family.
Utilizing years photojournalism experience, you invite me over to capture portraits of your family as you are right now to create a collection of beautiful images that bring back authentic memories, not contrived ones. Photographs of your kids really being themselves.
FAQ
I’ve never done a shoot like this: What’s it like?
Instead of directing everyone to stand still and smile, I have your kids show me their rooms and favorite toys. You make your breakfast or let the dog out, you live your life the way you actually live it each day, while I utilize my years of documentary photo journalism experience to capture the beautiful, little, lovely details that make up your home & world.
What if our family is super boring & not doing anything?
I assure you: NO family is “boring”. There is absolutely no wrong way to do this. So long as you’re all together, we can capture some of the magic that makes your family your family. We can also plan to DO something together too. Does your family like to hike? Go out on the boat? Play mini golf or go to the farmer's market? Having an activity can make it extra fun for everyone!
Do I have to make my house perfect first?
No, I won’t judge your home. We are a hopelessly cluttered family of six. You don’t need to panic clean up the house for this. Unless you feel you absolutely must. Be you. The aim is for the images to bring back memories of what this chapter of life really looks and feels like for you and your family.
How much & does this price include the photos? Will you try to sell me prints in person after?
Our flat rate is $699 for this type of session and expect to be together for about 3 hours. Within 3 weeks of the session, you are presented with an online gallery of high-resolution images that will be a time capsule back to now. You're invited to print, share, & enjoy them as you’d like. I’m not going to have some in person “unveiling” of your images to be pushy and try to get you to buy super expensive prints. It’s not my style. Your photos are YOURS.
