THE IMPORTANCE OF TAKING & DISPLAYING PROFESSIONAL FAMILY PHOTOS
When you have your family photographed and display those beautiful images in your home, that benefits your children. How awesome is that?!?
Every time you pass a family photo in your home, you glance at it and it takes you back & helps you remember that time in your lives. How you looked, what you were going through, how much you cherish your loved ones, how you all have changed and grown.
You find comfort in your sense of belonging to your own unique & special family unit.
"We cannot underestimate the power of photographs to keep us feeling linked to others and belonging. They cement us into our networks."
—Professor Geoff Beattie, Head of School and Dean of Psychological Sciences at the University of Manchester

"For children in particular, looking at photographs is part of the socialising process; learning who you are and where you fit into the family. By displaying photographs of our children at different stages of their lives, we are making a very public statement that we are proud of them.'"
—Professor Geoff Beattie, Head of School and Dean of Psychological Sciences at the University of Manchester
FAQ
What is your family photo session fee?

What if the weather is bad the day of my session?
A.No worries, I do have a studio that we can use as a back up location if your entire session is outside, but we can also work to find a new date that works for you.

FAQ
Can I bring my dog?
Yes! I love to incorporate ALL of your cherished family members in your family photo session - the furry ones, too. I will give your furry family member(s) a few minutes to explore and settle before your session. If your dog is overly excited around new people or reactive and you are hesitant to bring him/her out to a public place, I do have beautiful land I have access to on private property.
What if my kids don't smile?
I get it - kids are unpredictable! They are busy bodies and sitting them in one place repeatedly and trying to force smiles doesn't turn out too well. I keep your session moving along and get those looking at the camera and smiling shots - but I also get plenty of candids and we do a lot of different poses and prompts. This ensures that you get those genuine smiles that you love and your kids have a great time as well, giving you variety a beautiful variety in your photographs!
