the art of remembering
I grew up with three younger brothers. When I think of my childhood, I remember backyard soccer matches, skits I directed in our living room, and the puppet shows we put on for our parents. Uninhibited imagination, play, and joy are at the heart of childhood. Family sessions with me are rooted in candid moments. Your children are free to run around the playground, splash in the water, play in the sand, pick flowers, blow bubbles, or dance and sing in their own world. That's where I believe the magic happens: when there's no posing, no expectations, no pressure to be anything but yourselves. It's an opportunity to have fun together as a family and simply be.
family photos
I love when the unexpected happens: a subtle pout, a child who won't leave mom's side. I strive to capture what is real, by preserving the little quirks, honest emotions, and genuine personality that will make you look back one day and remember how it all felt.

Can be an add-on to a photography package or a session all on its own. These videos can also be stored over the years for long-term projects (a compilation video when your child turns 18, a family video in 20 years, etc). I like to think big picture!
$450 or $150 add-on to any photo package
Family Videography
03
I filmed Hannah & Tito's wedding. Documenting their growing family has given wedding videography a whole new possibility.
I have two family session options, depending on the amount of time that works best with your family's needs. I am also now offering family videography sessions.

I recommend choosing outfits that feel comfortable and reflect your family's personality. Neutral or earth tones and simple textures tend to photograph beautifully, but the most important thing is that you feel like yourselves. I'm happy to help with wardrobe suggestions before your session.
What should we wear?
Absolutely! Family sessions are a great way to document generational love. I love to help plan a session that makes room for everyone you want to photograph together.
can we include extended family or grandparents?
That's completely okay! Kids don't need to sit still, smile on command, or behave a certain way in order to capture meaningful photos. Some of my favorite photos are often the unexpected moments when kids are just being themselves.
what if my kids don't cooperate or sit still?
