NEWBORNS TO FAMILIES, AND ALL THE TIME IN BETWEEN

As I get older, I start to realize my Grandma was right…life goes by more quickly with every passing day.  Even as a photographer, I’m amazed at how looking at a photograph of my kids when they were little really does take me back there.  I can remember the way Trenton used to mispronounce his “r’s” and the way Evie makes the same face when she cries that she did as an infant.

Portraiture isn’t just about getting your picture taken.  It’s about documenting how you are at THIS moment in time.  Your relationships.  Your life.  Your connections.  Years from now, you’ll be glad you invested in those memories.

Sessions begin at $150.  Please contact me for more information or to schedule your appointment.

DO YOU HAVE A STUDIO?

I do not have a studio and conduct all sessions on location.  This can mean outside, in your home or in another location we have chosen.  I shot in a studio for many years previously but intentionally chose a different look for my business when I began six years ago.  I prefer the the look of natural light for most portraiture and shooting on location allows for endless opportunities based on location and light.

WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR?

For families, I suggest 1-2 outfits and I ask that you NOT dress exactly the same.  When it comes to choosing clothing for your family, think coordinate instead of matching.  Don’t be afraid to mix colors, patterns and textures.  Layers in the fall, bright colors mixed with neutrals in the spring and summer.  And if you just aren’t sure if what you have will work, ask me!  I’m glad to offer advice!

WHAT HAPPENS IF WE HAVE TO RESCHEDULE?

This is just part of life.  Sometimes we have to reschedule for the weather or for illness and I completely understand.  I do my best to find a time as soon as possible to make up the session.  Please keep in mind that canceling for weather is something I absolutely hate to do, and only consider it if I feel it’s absolutely necessary.  I am always in contact with my clients regarding what we might need to do as the forecast approaches.

DO YOU OFFER A PLAN FOR BABY'S FIRST YEAR?

I sure do!  I offer a few choices for newborn through one year portrait plans as well as plans that include the options of ordering prints or digital images.  Newborn are always shot in the comfort of your home with a lifestyle feel.  Other sessions can be shot in your home or on location.

If you are a former bride + groom of mine, ask about a special offer with your baby’s first year investment.

HOW DO I BOOK A SESSION WITH YOU?

Give me a call and we will set up a session!  Sessions will be photographed with the option of purchasing prints or digital files.  Plan on up to 2 hours for your family or children session.  Newborn sessions can take 3-4 hours as needed for naps, feedings and changing.
