Families

I want you to have photographs that ground you on the hard days; that make you smile; that fill your heart and soul.

Whether in your home or your favorite outdoor setting, your session is tailored just for you.

No matter the backdrop, your family photo session is fun. relaxed. easy. 

This is a chance for you to play, dance, snuggle, connect, hug your babies, kiss your partner.

All you have to do is be yourselves. I’ll do the rest.

  • Don't Wait

    The days can be long and weary at times, but the next thing you know the seasons you have shepherded your children through have passed in the blink of an eye.

    YOU WILL ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL YOU DID THIS NOW.

  • The Time is Now

    When you are knee deep in eye rolls and tantrums, covered in spit-up, or exhausted to the core, you can look at the family pictures on your walls, and feel the chaos around you settle and slip away.

  • Preserve This Moment

    When your children have left the nest, these photographs preserve their tiny hands, missing teeth, or awkward transitions- for you to not only reflect upon, but also for them to show their children one day.

  • Let's Make Some Magic

    Let me show you the beauty in the chaos; the wonderful world you have created.

 

Parenting is quite the ride…

There is no better time than now to preserve your family’s love story.

In-Home

Your home is where you create so many memories. It’s the place that your children will remember as they get older and want to see when they look back at pictures.

In-home sessions are a mixture of lifestyle and documentary. We collaborate before the session, talking about the favorite things your family does and mapping out ideas to truly highlight your family. We take some family shots in your favorite areas and I capture all the moments in-between.⁠

Outdoor

There are so many gorgeous places in Arizona. Your photos will have a beautiful backdrop! The outdoors can provide for some kick-butt lighting at sunset and sunrise.

If you love to explore and be outside, these are representative of your family.

Picking the Right Session for You

Each family is unique and with each family I work with, we collaborate to create a session that is perfect for you in this stage of your lives. Check out this blog post to learn more about choosing a session that is perfect for your family.

PRICING

It doesn’t have to be weird, but unfortunately you can’t pay me in wine and chocolate. I don’t want to waste your time or mine, so use this as a measuring stick.

Family photos are valuable for numerous reasons. I truly believe that these are the moments that hang on your wall and ground you at the end of a tough day; they are the photos that your children will have to preserve their family legacy; they are so much more than a holiday card.

Sessions are $1095 and include hi-res digital images and $150 print credit to ensure your photos are printed!

A Personalized Approach

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.⁠

Session Time, Baby!

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 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!

Archival-Quality Prints

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 a gallery of your images to download and a print credit. 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!

“You should know that I cried through that entire slideshow. The pictures are amazing, but what I see is how much we've been through since the last time you photographed us; how much the kids have grown, and just what those pictures mean to us as a family. I will never be able to thank you enough for capturing all of that in those photos. Because somehow you did. Thank you.”
