Atlanta Family Photography Experience
Heartfelt Portraits to Cherish Forever
Your family’s story is uniquely yours, and your session should feel that way too. My approach is relaxed, intentional, and focused on real connection—guiding you through a seamless, stress-free experience from the very first consultation. The goal is simple: to preserve your family’s love and joy in heartfelt, timeless portraits designed to last for generations.
A Stress-Free Experience from Start to Finish
I make planning easy by guiding you through every detail, from outfit selection to location choice. My goal is to take the stress off your plate so you can simply enjoy the experience while I capture your family's love and connection.
A Fun and Relaxed Experience for Kids (and Dads!)
Worried your kids won’t sit still? That’s okay! I embrace their energy, using play and movement to capture their joy naturally. No forced smiles—just real, heartfelt moments. And for those reluctant dads? My easygoing, low-pressure approach helps them relax and even enjoy the experience—really!
A Personalized Approach for Every Family
Every family is different, and your session should reflect that. I take the time to understand your dynamic and create a session tailored to your personalities—whether it’s playful energy, quiet snuggles, or a mix of both—ensuring your family portraits feel personal, meaningful, and true to your story.
More Than Just Photos—Artwork to Live With
Your family’s memories deserve more than a place on your phone. After your session, we’ll view your portraits together, and I’ll guide you through choosing the images and artwork that feel most meaningful to you. From heirloom wall art and framed pieces to albums and keepsakes, we’ll create something beautiful to enjoy in your home for years to come.
The session fee is $250 and includes your session along with all planning and guidance. I'll handle all the little details so you can simply enjoy the experience.
Digital images and printed artwork are not included and are purchased separately.
Because your memories are meant to be lived with, I offer a full-service experience from session to artwork. After your session, you’ll have the opportunity to choose from a curated selection of heirloom-quality artwork and digital images designed to be enjoyed for years to come.
The process is simple:
-
Planning: We’ll design your session together—from location to wardrobe styling.
-
Session: I’ll guide you through a relaxed, effortless experience, creating beautiful images that feel true to you.
-
Design & Selection: Together, we’ll view your portraits and choose the images that tell your story best. You’ll select the pieces you love, from heirloom artwork and albums to digital images, creating something that feels uniquely yours.
