family session information..
Family sessions are one of my absolute fav type of session to photograph. I love getting to know everyone and forming a connection so that we can get the most out of your session and create some really beautiful memories and artwork for your home. I hold family session in home, or outdoors either at sunrise or sunset. The session includes multiple different relaxed poses and prompts to ensure lots of smiles and fun during your session. The sessions run for approx 30-40 minutes, and if the children need more time that is completely fine.
In home sessions are designed to be super relaxed where the kids can just be comfortable in their own space and freedom. You don't need a fancy home, just some good lighting with a couple of windows or a little porch to make it work. These I can hold when the lighting is best in your home.
Sunrise sessions are definitely for the early birds, great for early rises who love to watch the sun come up. The lighting is really different in the morning, very soft and subtle, and generally the weather is so much calmer, particularly the beach.
Late afternoon sunset sessions are just that, held around an hour before sunset depending on the weather and location these work great for any age really. Sunsets are a lot warmer lighting and I find the best ones are during the cooler months from March - August.
Outdoor sessions usually book out a few months in advance, sometimes a year for weekends so getting that date set early is a great idea. I am happy to help with planning a location, outfits and any sort of creative ideas you have. I also have a client wardrobe FULL to the brim of beautiful dresses for Mama's to wear, so definitely make sure you take advantage of that if you book in.
