Family Portraits
Life moves fast, and family changes before we know it. That’s why family portraits matter. They capture the people we love, exactly as they are today, and become treasured keepsakes for years to come.
I know this firsthand. After losing several family members over the past few years, I realized how priceless these portraits truly are. When my dad turned 85, we gathered for an extended family session. Coordinating everyone wasn’t easy, but the result—a beautiful portrait displayed in my parents’ living room—and now that he has passed, it’s become a became a cherished family heirloom.
Don’t wait for the “perfect time.” Kids grow, life happens, and the best time is now. I make it a priority to take a new family portrait every year, and I only wish I had started sooner. Quick snapshots on your phone are great, but the framed portrait on your wall is the one you’ll see, love, and cherish every single day. And let’s be honest—having a beautiful, updated family photo is perfect for sharing on social media and Christmas cards too!
Because time won’t wait—let’s create something beautiful together.

Styling Guide
To help you prepare for your session, you’ll receive my Family Session Styling Guide. It’s full of tips on coordinating outfits and other ways to make your session run smoothly.

My goal is to create a wide variety of images for you to choose from, all while keeping the experience fun and stress-free.
