I know choosing the right package can feel a little overwhelming, but I have designed each option with families in mind. No matter what season of life you are in, there is a session that will fit your family and help capture the memories you are longing to hold onto. This guide will walk you through the differences so you can feel confident in your choice.
The Simple Session
This one is short and sweet, perfect for quick milestones or when you just need a few updated portraits. It is ideal for holiday cards, yearly family photos, or marking a special season of life. However, if it takes your kids or husband to warm up to a stranger or photos in general, I would recommend moving to the signature session.
The Signature Session
This is my most popular option and for good reason. With more time, we are able to capture a wider variety of images. We get a mix of playful interaction and a few more posed portraits, giving you the best of both worlds. Many families choose this session because they want a little more breathing room to relax and enjoy the process without feeling rushed. If you are nervous about your kids not lasting through a longer session, rest assured. I am not going to make anyone stare at me and smile the whole time. Kids (and dads too) usually end up having fun because the session is built around connection and laughter, not stiff posing. This session is great for those who have loved ones that take a moment to warm up to a stranger, photographer, or getting photos taken.
The Storytelling Session
This package is for families who want it all. With extended time, we can include meaningful details that make your family unique. This may mean adding a second location (optional and within a reasonable distance of the first), planning activities that are tailored to your family, or slowing down enough to capture all the in-between moments you never want to forget. During these sessions, I also shoot a roll of film, giving you timeless and artistic images alongside your digital gallery. This is the perfect choice if you want your session to feel more like a chapter of your family story, not just a snapshot.
HOW TO DECIDE?
Still wondering which one fits best? Here is a quick guide:
- Choose the Simple Session if you just need a handful of updated photos.
