Family Portraits (Studio vs Outdoors)

Family portraits can take place in the studio or outdoors!  For smaller families, couples or just the kids, the studio is a perfect option.  The weather is not a concern and the lighting is always beautiful!  We can do the session at any time of day as well.  For larger families, an outdoor location is our best bet.  We have room to spread out and pose and get some really fantastic family portraits.  First, consider the time of year and availability of your family.  Discuss options with your photographer.  Next, plan the session for the studio or outdoors accordingly.  Then at the session, have fun with your family and enjoy your time together.  Finally, review your images and select the very best ones for your walls!  Every time you walk by those family portraits, you’ll remember the time you spent just being family together.  It’s a beautiful memory.

Family Photos

Don and Mary wanted to take some professional photos.  They wanted something to frame for their home as well as to give to family members.  We ended up with a couple of them together and then also individual portraits.  They were so thrilled to be able to send these framed prints to family.  Faye and Ricky had the entire family in for Mother’s Day weekend.  What a great time to have family portraits taken.  We opted for an outdoor location so that we had plenty of room for posing.  We took photos of the entire family and then each individual family as well.  I can’t wait for each of them to receive their prints!  They’ll have something to remember that Mother’s Day weekend…what a gift!

We live in a visual world.

Whether you're a realtor, doctor, lawyer, therapist, or personal trainer—your headshot is often someone’s first impression of you.

And in industries where trust is everything… a blurry selfie or outdated photo just won’t cut it.

📸 Here’s why a professional headshot matters:
✅ It instantly communicates professionalism and credibility
✅ It builds connection and approachability
✅ It makes you stand out in a sea of competition
✅ It reflects the quality of service you provide

And the truth is—clients, employers, and collaborators are checking your profile before they ever reach out. What they see should reflect the real you… polished, confident, and ready to show up.

Your headshot isn’t just a photo—it’s part of your brand.

Let’s make it work for you.

📩 Contact me to book your headshot session or ask about upcoming availability!

Here's your answer 👇🏻

Sometimes it’s the smallest edits that make the biggest impact.

In this before-and-after, I removed the glare from my client’s glasses—not to change who they are, but to make sure their eyes (and confidence) shine through without distraction.

This is a perfect example of what thoughtful editing is all about:
💻 Not heavy filters.
🚫 Not reshaping your features.
✔️ Just refining the details so you feel like the best version of yourself.

From lens glare to flyaway hairs, subtle skin retouching to wardrobe clean-up—I handle the behind-the-scenes so you can focus on showing up relaxed and confident.

Because when you feel good in front of the camera, it shows.

📸 Want a headshot or branding photo that feels like YOU—just a little more polished? Let’s talk. I’d love to work with you.

Here’s the truth…

People decide if they want to work with you in seconds - and your visuals do the talking.

If you’re not attracting the right clients, take a look at your branding:

✔️ If your photos don’t reflect your brand, then potential clients won’t see your value.

✔️ If your online imagery is inconsistent, then it can be hard to build trust.

✔️ If you’re not showing yourself in your content, then clients miss the chance to connect with you.

✨ The good news? I can fix all of that.

With a personalized branding session, we’ll create a collection of images that reflect your personality, your professionalism, and your purpose—so the right clients see you and say yes.

I’m the photographer who’s there for your senior year glow-up, your first professional headshot, your dream business branding, and your family’s most meaningful milestones.

🤍 Real Comfort = Real Confidence
No awkward intros or guessing games—just ease. You already know how I work, and I know how to bring out your natural, authentic energy on camera.

🎯 Sessions That Evolve With You
Prom? Graduation? First job? New business? Expanding family? Each session is tailored to the season you’re in—with intentional visuals that match your moment.

📸 Consistency You Can See
No more jumping between styles or trying to "explain your vibe" every time you book someone new. We’ll create a cohesive visual story that feels like YOU, not just a trend.

🧠 I Know Your Vibe (and Your Best Side)
Once we’ve worked together, I already know the little things that make a big difference—your best angles, what makes you laugh, and how to make you feel confident in front of the lens.

✨ Working with a lifetime photographer means your photos won’t just look good…
