Full Family | $400
My full family sessions are for families who want something less traditional and not all posed. I like to tell a story with your session. Creating some magic and memories! The session should not feel stressful! This is an adventure! Session is VERY casual and in the moment. More documentary, life-style like. Less formal and full of interaction and love. I just want to see you enjoying one another. I want to create a memory and nostalgia. I am not a photographer looking to create a perfectly posed family portrait. I am more about the love and connection. I want you to feel all the feels at your session and in the years to come when you look at your beautiful family~
This session offers lots of time for little ones to settle in and relax! Shorter sessions sound nice but are not always the best option for littles that are free spirited or even a little shy. We may need time to open them up or to calm down. This session is not rushed or pressured for time as there is plenty of it! My sessions are full of interaction and connection. No pressure to sit still and smile. I love laughing, singing, playing, snuggles, kisses, hair blowing in the wind, sun haze, sun flares and everything in between! We will do a little of both naturally posed and a lot of in the moment. Think of the session as an adventure!
Sessions generally take 30-45 minutes. Length of sessions is determined by cooperation. Kids or babies sometimes need time to warm up or take breaks. There is plenty of time allotted for this.
Outdoor family sessions are only offered during the warmer months of May-October. Sessions take place about an hour before sunset. I have many locations around the area we can use such as parks and urban spots. Outdoor spots fill up quickly.
Family, multiple groupings and individual shots. Sessions take place Monday-Thursday evenings outdoors about an hour or so before sunset. For single families with babies 6 months and older. Session with smaller families of 5 or less can also take place in the studio for a cozy feel!
