In-home sessions I have found that children are a lot more comfortable in their own homes, so these work really well for kids that take a bit to warm up. I also love capturing the place where you make so many of your memories. I usually book these mid-morning, but schedule them based upon when your children are happiest, so if that’s the afternoon, then that’s what we do.

Outdoor sessions take place in the golden hour- an hour before sunset or the hour starting at sunrise (yes, I said sunrise- if you’re an early riser family, run on East Coast time, or want to avoid nap/eating times, this is the time for you!). This is the time that produces the best glowy light. We coordinate the session location based upon your location in the valley combined with the type of environment you want (i.e. desert, wash, field, downtown).

Every booking begins with a short phone call where I can answer your questions, collaborate ideas for your session, and firm up a date. From there, booking is easy peezy lemon squeezy.

I use a questionnaire to get to know your family, which allows me to highlight your family’s awesomeness. I provide you with a client prep guide, which has everything from clothing recommendations to how to prepare your children for the session.

It’s session time!

Woohoo! Here is the fun part! I'll initially get everyone comfortable with a few poses and shutter clicks, and then we let the session unfold. I want you to twirl, dance, snuggle into your partner, breathe in your babies, kiss, laugh, and enjoy this time you have together, unplugged from everything else. I've been doing this a long time, have two kids, and spent years as a social worker- there's very little I haven't seen and not much phases me- so take a deep breath, relax, and know I GOT YOU!

We all plan on printing, but photos always end up living on our computers and phones. I’ve taken the headache out of getting your images printed!

A few weeks after your session, you’ll be presented with your images to download, along with a print credit to use in the online store. From there, in a few clicks, you’ll design an album or order museum-quality prints, acrylic art, canvas, or framed prints using the print credit from your purchased collection, delivered straight to your doorstep!
