FAMILY PORTRAITS
I see the world through stories. Let me capture yours.
I will C-O-N-N-E-C-T
with you and your family.
It’s my superpower.
If you are looking for a photographer who offers quick sessions with minimal interaction, digital-only images, and rigid posing, I’m not the right fit for you. My sessions require time, connection, and passion. I’ll guide your session while letting your family engage naturally, capturing authentic moments. I will make R-E-A-L images from R-E-A-L relationships. My storytelling style highlights your family as they truly are—whether calm or chaotic, playful or thoughtful, and everything in between. Let’s celebrate and embrace your unique story.
The days are long, but the years are short.
PRICING:
Portraits are not meant to live in your phone. They are to be treasured and tangible, adorning your walls with the most precious art you will ever own - your treasured family. Heirloom albums are an investment in your legacy to be treasured for generations. I will guide you through the process from our first call to delivering your portraits so relax and let me craft the experience you have been waiting for.
The $300 creation fee includes a quick preliminary phone call, an in-person consultation, an on-location session, a post-session meeting to pick out your favorite photos using professional image processing, and a $200 print credit. I welcome multiple outfit changes and unlimited poses, and location/styling assistance are available upon request. Final photo collections of portrait wall art, gift prints, folios, and/or albums generally range from $300 to $4,000, depending on the artwork that best suits your needs. Many options are available!
