On the day of the session, your job is to play with your beautiful family! I'll guide you through a series of simple poses and playful movements. These shorter sessions are slightly more posed than a full session, but the focus is still on creating a fun, playful atmosphere where everyone's personalities have a chance to shine!

You’ll get a handful of sneak peeks within a few days, and your full gallery within 3-4 weeks. The gallery will include all the best images - at least 50, often more. You’ll be able to instantly download and share all of the images, and even order high-quality prints and wall art directly from your gallery.
Please get in touch via the Contact Form here. I will respond ASAP.

The Process
Literally every single parent worries that their children won’t behave during a session. I know it’s easier said than done, but please, try to let go of the impulse to control their behavior during the session. They don’t need to look at the camera or participate in every pose.
The more you try to direct them, the less they’ll want to listen to anyone. So hand over the reins - I will make sure to get what we need for beautiful photos. Your ONLY job for this time is to cuddle, love on, and play with your family.
