Family Sessions

My Style

I have a casual, more documentary style of photography. I enjoy capturing the special moments between families, which are most likely the expressions that you see most in one another every day. You will find me talking to you and your family a lot, with special attention in engaging your children.

Please allow me to keep them focused on me, rather than being firm with them; I have a few tricks to help kids forget the camera is even there, thus producing more natural expressions and smiles from them. If you have younger children, I may tell some jokes or act silly, with teens, I may pull them off to the side and get to know a bit about them first. I know family portrait-time can be thought of as a stressful time, but I want you to enjoy more than your images, but also the experience of making those images.

I gravitate towards the natural posing that families do, but may offer posing suggestions as needed, in order to benefit the final look of your portraits. Also, attitude is everything. A grumpy disposition, whether a child’s or a parent’s, can show up in your final images, so I ask that you come to your session with an open mind, keeping in mind that you are creating precious memories that you will cherish for decades to come.

Clothing Suggestions

Family photographs are special, a legacy of whom your family was for future generations to enjoy.
Clothing choices are just as important for family sessions, as other sessions. I suggest you think of the family grouping of outfits as one whole outfit; taking care that they all coordinate well. Lay out everyone’s outfits on a bed and view them as a whole to see that they go well together.

Lastly, relax! This will be a fun experience; a memory that will last a lifetime. Congratulations as you begin a new chapter in your life.
