Using the self - timer on your fancy camera or taking selfies with an iPhone does not count.

No matter how grumpy your kids and spouse / partner seem… I can handle them. Promise.

Photo Sessions are something to look forward to, it’s a celebration of your family! They should be fun, NOT stressful.

3 TIPS on WHAT to wear

As a family photographer, one of the most common questions I'm asked is, "What should we wear for our family photos?" It's a great question, and it's one I love to answer because it gives me a chance to dive into one one important aspect of documentary photography: showing up authentically for your session. Feeling comfortable is the most important thing!

WHY MOMS SHOULD GET IN THE FRAME

I once received this concern from a mom, "I just worry that he will grow up and have pictures with everyone but his mom. And god forbid something happens to me I want him to know how much I love him and cared for him. So really want the memories for him. Just really want to have a fun genuine session where the love of our tiny little family shines through."

Decoding Photos styles

Have you ever heard photographers use terms like “Fine Art” & "Lifestyle" and "Day-in-The-Life?” Maybe you’re vaguely familiar, but also not too sure what exactly these terms mean? Allow me to clear things up. By the end of this blog, you'll be able to identify each photography style and select the one (or combo) that will best preserve your family's memories.
