Photography Pricing Guide

Welcome

I am so excited that you are interested in choosing me to document your family!

My specialty lies in working with families and their babies — and capturing the raw love and connection within them. 

When I became a mother, I developed a love for photographing the unique beauty of a family.

My mission is to capture the essence of motherhood and childhood in its truest form. I’m here to freeze those everyday moments that make your family special — and turn them into tangible memories you can hold onto forever.

I'm looking forward to capturing your special moments together.

let's chat!

get in touch

Let's find the perfect session for you! Reach out to me, and we'll work together to determine which session fits your needs or whether a membership is better. I'm excited to connect with you and learn more about your family!

Make it official

choose options

When you're ready to book a single session or legacy membership, use this investment guide and booking link to book. After you've selected your session and paid the fee, I'll send a contract and invoice to finalize everything.

styling

I understand how dressing the whole family can be a hassle (I've been there too!), which is why I offer a variety of clothing options for both moms and babies. That way, you can concentrate on having a great time together instead of stressing about what to wear. I also offer a style guide for dads and older siblings, along with style boards and links to some local clothing stores.

choose your location

I have two private properties available for your maternity or family session, each with its own unique charm. For at-home newborn sessions, we'll work together to find a time and date that fits both your schedule and your baby's routine.

session day

To help you feel fully prepared, I'll send a prep guide before your session day. During the shoot, I'll take some traditional photos, but I'll also focus on capturing candid moments that highlight your family's unique personality. With prompts and fun activities, we'll create a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone.

editing & printing

Once the session is complete, I'll handpick the best images and create a personalized online gallery for you. You will then receive a slideshow with your images and will have three days to select your images and choose a collection. From there I will complete the final edits so you can use your print credit! 

they're here!

I'll finalize your favorite images and provide you with both digital and print formats if you choose. My goal is to make sure you have tangible, stunning memories that you'll treasure for years to come!

Frequently

asked

Questions

As soon as possible! I’m usually booked out 2-3 months in advance so please reach out, even if you’re only thinking about it!

A:

When should I book?

q:

Yes! I provide a carefully curated wardrobe filled with natural and timeless styles in a range of sizes for Mom and Baby. Together, we can choose outfits that complement each other and create a cohesive look.

A:

Do your sessions include wardrobe?

q:

Absolutely! I provide a styling guide to help you prepare for your session, as well as shop recommendations to make the process easier.

A:

Do you help with styling the whole family?

q:

Ideally 1-2 weeks after birth, as that’s when babies are extra sleepy, which makes for adorable photos. That being said, since my style is more natural and less posed, I often photograph newborns all the way up to 4 months.

A:

When is the best time to photograph a newborn?

q:

Makeup is an additional add-on, but I have a list of amazing hair and makeup artists in the area that I’m happy to provide.

A:

Do your sessions include hair and makeup?

q:

Yes! If you book any of my sessions, you also receive print credit.

Do you offer prints and products?
