Digital Camera
Incorporate a disposable camera into your session to capture nostalgic, vintage moments through your own lens. I'll have the photos developed and deliver them to you, either by hand or through the mail, so you can cherish those raw, timeless memories by your own hand.
"You will never have this day with your children again. Tomorrow they will be a little bigger then they are today. This day is a gift. Breathe and notice. Smell and touch them; study their faces and little feet and pay attention. Relish the charms of the present. Enjoy today mama. It will be over before you know it"
- Jen Hatmaker
Allow me to document those details for you to cherish forever
This is my process:
I. Before the session
Before your family photography session, I will send you a questionnaire so I can learn a little bit about you and your family. This will also give me a good idea of what your ideas and preferences for the session are. This way I can tailor the experience specifically to your family's needs. If your little girl loves to dance, tell me! You little boy just lost a tooth, let me know! I want to know everything about your family so I can document all the little details you want! I'll also help you with picking the best location for outdoor sessions. If we have scheduled an in home session, I will ask that you send photos of the rooms inside your home. Why? So I can see which rooms have the best natural light!
II. During the session
During the session, all you'll need to do is relax and focus on enjoying your family in that moment. I'll be taking care of the rest! I like to take a more lifestyle or documentary style approach to family sessions. So I'll guide you into a position, one of which will surely be snuggling up with your family, and you will all just hang out there for a bit while I snap away. The kids will likely get bored and decide they want to do something else like run in circles around you. Let them! These are the little things you'll want to remember; How much energy your toddler had, and how wonderful the relationship is between all your kids as they play around you. Whenever I get your family in a nice position, and I notice the little ones have settled down, I'll make sure to get those good smiling at the camera shots!
III. After the session
Premium sessions:
You will receive 3-5 sneak peeks within 48 hours of our session and your full gallery will be delivered within four to six weeks of your session. You will be able to view, download, print, and share your images as you'd like!
Standard sessions:
Within four to six weeks you will receive a proof gallery containing a full, watermarked gallery. From this gallery, you can select 35 images for the cost of your package, but have the option to purchase extra images, or a full gallery at an additional cost. Once you have selected the image you'd like, and paid for any additional images you may want, I will send you a final gallery without a watermark where you will be able to view download, print, and share your images as you'd like!
FAQ
What happens if my kids misbehave?
Don't worry, kid's
What is the best time for a session?
For outdoor sessions, lighting is usually best in the late afternoon or early evening hours right before sunset. That golden hour lighting is quite beautiful as long as the weather permits. I also love an overcast sky, so no matter what, we can make it work! I completely understand that this time isn't practical for all families. After you inquire, we will discuss these details and find a time that works best for your family!
Where should we have our session?
Your family session can take place outdoors, in home, in my studio, or maybe you want to rent a studio you like. If you aren't sure where you'd like to pick as your location, I am more than happy to help. During my consultation prior to booking, I will chat with you about some of my favorite locations in the area we could plan your family session for!
Can I still book one of these family packages if my kids aren't little anymore?
Of course! No matter the age of your children, I'd love to welcome them into our session! If your children have children of their own, please let me know and we can get you booked with one of my extended family packages!
What will happen in the event of rain?
I'll be watching the weather forecast the day of our scheduled session. If it looks like it will rain, I will be in touch via text or email and make the decision whether or not to postpone. I like to wait as late as possible to actually postpone because stormy skies right after or before rain are absolutely gorgeous, so if it’s not raining, we will be out there shooting! In the case of any postponement, I will try to accommodate your session as soon as my schedule allows.
