Filling your walls and remind you of life's sweetest seasons?
family portraits
this time in your life deserves to be captured by something other than your iPhone. Family sessions were born from past wedding couples asking us to document their growing families and now we just can't get enough!
We love creating photos to remind families that in spite of the fact that the car of their floor is covered in cereal, their laundry room looks like an episode of hoarders and mom and dad are in a permanent state of exhaustion, their love and their story are beautiful.
So let's plan a day, pick a location that is meaningful to you and create a slew of images that will fill up the frames your walls for years to come.
Regardless of the season you're in, and whether your babies are big, small or furry,

I found Michelle two years ago on social media and have been using her ever since for all my photography needs. She is easy, fun to work with and makes the whole process a joy! Michelle always seems to capture the perfect shot and I'm always blown away with her work!

Unless you've modeled professionally, you're probably going to feel awkward in front of the camera. Heck, we take photos for a living and I even feel like a deer in the headlights when in front of the camera.
You're going to feel awkward at first, but as the session goes on I promise I wont leave you hanging! I will coach you through images, we think you'll find that being photographed can actually be fun. And don't worry about your kids. I'm well prepared in capturing even the busiest of little ones.

What if we're awkward and my kids don't sit still?
q:
If picking out outfits for photos takes you back I always suggest neutral tones, I like to avoid busy patterns, bright colors or bold plaids. These photos are about capturing you and your family connection and not to be distracted by the attire.
We put together an extensive outfit suggestion guide with tips for every member of the family!
A:
What should we wear?
q:
The sooner the better! Typically I shoot portraits on weekday evenings only! I do make some special exceptions. Our weekends tend to fill up pretty quickly - due to wedding season and I choose to spend my time on the field with my daughter during her travel ball season in the spring and fall, so the sooner you reach out to me the better!
To reserve your date, we'll need a contract as well as a deposit to ensure you are locked on my calendar!
A:
How far in advance should we book?
q:
No one wants to look like a wet dog in their photos so if it looks like it's going to rain, snow, hail or even high winds or some other weather catastrophe, we'll be in touch via email or phone to reschedule. Typically if its more than a 30% chance at the time of our session I'll make the call to reschedule the morning of by 9am. If the ground is saturated from the night prior and it seems to wet than I'll also reschedule. Who really wants to get muddy anyway?
