Mini Sessions are short and sweet fun sessions held on select dates at curated locations a few times a year. These sessions offer a wide variety of beautiful, professional images in a short amount of time—perfect for refreshing your family portraits and updating the photos on your walls.

Signature Sessions are ideal for larger families, extended families including grandparents, or those who prefer the comfort of an in-home session. They’re also a great choice for families looking for something more personalized—whether it's a specific location, a unique aesthetic, or a meaningful backdrop. We'll work closely with you to select the perfect setting and style to capture your family authentically.

Arrive Early! Give yourself a little extra time to find parking, get settled, and connect with your photographer before the session begins. A relaxed start helps set the tone—we’d much rather begin with happy faces than the stress of rushing in last minute.

​Eat Before Your Session! Everyone—kids and adults alike—feels and looks their best when they’re not hungry. Be sure to eat beforehand to keep energy and spirits high.

​Trust the Process! During the session, we kindly ask that you let the photographer guide the kids. Too many directions at once can feel overwhelming for little ones. Trust that we're looking to capture genuine moments—including the in-between expressions that often tell the most meaningful stories. There’s no need to worry if your child isn’t always smiling perfectly—some of the best images come when they’re just being themselves.

• Choose outfits that make you feel confident and comfortable—when you feel great, it truly shows in your photos. Be sure your clothing suits the session location and weather so you can relax and enjoy the moment.

• Instead of perfectly matching outfits, we recommend selecting a few complementary colors and building everyone’s look around that palette. Varying shades of the same tones can work beautifully together. Try to avoid solid black or white, as they can either absorb or reflect too much light on camera.

• When it comes to patterns, less is more. Use solids as a foundation and incorporate one or two subtle patterns for interest. Texture is another great way to add visual variety—think light layers, scarves, sweaters, or accessories like hats. Just avoid everyone wearing the same pattern, which can look too uniform.

• To keep the focus on your family, please avoid clothing with visible brand names, logos, or cartoon characters.
