 What makes me different?
I know family life isn’t perfectly posed — it’s loud, tender, messy, and deeply meaningful. That’s what I want to capture. Not the “everyone smile at the camera” version of you, but the real connection you share every day.

I take time to truly get to know your family because the little things matter — the way he plays with your hair when he’s tired, the exact order of her goodbye kisses, the way you hold them without even thinking about it. Those are the moments you’ll ache for one day.

Whether we’re in your home, in a field, or walking down a quiet road, the location is just the backdrop. What matters is your story. I’ll send a short questionnaire to learn about you, but I’m always happy to talk or text too — I know life is full, and I want this to feel easy.open to whatever works best for you.   

What to expect during your session
Your session is meant to feel relaxed, fun, and very much like your family. I focus on real moments, not stiff poses. I’ll gently guide you the whole time, helping your family settle into a natural rhythm rather than telling you exactly how to stand or smile.

We’ll snuggle, play, walk, sit, and let kids be kids — running included. If your children aren’t looking at the camera, smiling, or sitting still, that’s more than okay. Those in-between moments are often the most meaningful, and they’re what show your child’s true personality. hat is want you will honestly want to see! 

Wear something that feels like you. Comfort matters more than perfection. Soft, neutral tones photograph beautifully, and simple pieces without bold logos or patterns help keep the focus on connection. Most importantly, choose clothing you can move, sit, and snuggle in — because that’s what we’ll be doing.

Sessions can take place in your home or outdoors in a location that feels meaningful to your family. Some families love the comfort of home, others prefer open fields, quiet roads, or favorite places they already spend time together. If you’re unsure, I’m happy to help you choose a location that fits your family and the kind of moments you want to remember.

Keep it casual and fun. A week or two before, let your kids know about the fun adventure we have planned and invite them to share ideas — I love hearing what they’re excited about.

Most importantly, don’t stress about behavior or put pressure on them to “act right.” Kids being kids is exactly what I expect (and as a mom of two boys, I’ve been there). When kids feel pressure, it shows. When they feel free to be themselves, the magic happens. Just remind them it’s going to be fun — and I’ll take care of the rest.

Great question! I will go through all of your captured moments and pick out ones that will tell your story best! I generally deliver the edited full gallery within 2 weeks of the session. I will also post a sneak peek within a few days as well!

This is another great question! I will be sending you a questioneer about your family and the things you like doing together.
