Family Photoshoot

There’s nothing that makes my heart sing more than a family photoshoot!  First, we make a plan for the session.  We discuss location for the session, wardrobe, and your end goals for the images.  We will think about the places in your home where the new family portraits will hang.  Next, we meet for the photoshoot and just have fun.  There will be staged photos where everyone is smiling and looking at the camera.  But I will also capture those in-between moments of laughter, of love, and of togetherness.  Those are the priceless memories that last for generations.  Finally, after the session, we will meet to review all of the images together.  I’ll guide you through the process of selecting the very best images for your portrait order.  And I will help you to select the perfect image for your wall art, albums, and digital images.  My goal is to help you every step of the way and to make the entire process a fun and easy experience!  When you look at your new family portraits every day hanging on your walls, you’ll remember the love that you share.

The Nelson Family

I had previous photographed Dad for a business headshot a few years ago.  Fast forward to this year and a growing family!  The Nelson family was such a pleasure to photograph.  We got lots of smiles and beautiful interaction with Mom, Dad, and baby.  It was pretty cold and baby’s nose and fingers were feeling the temperature.  We had plenty of amazing shots, though, so we called it a day.

Most people step in front of the camera thinking, “I have no idea what to do.”

That’s where I come in.

Every small adjustment you see here — posture, hands, angles — is intentional. It’s what turns a quick headshot into something confident and professional.

If you want to learn the poses I rely on most, I put together a guide breaking them down.

If you’re just getting into headshot photography, it’s easy to feel like you need everything to get started.

You don’t.

A solid light setup, a reliable camera, and a lens you can trust will take you a lot further than you think.

📸 For me, that looks like a Nikon Z7II mirrorless camera + a 70–200mm lens, paired with a simple lighting setup that keeps things consistent and professional.

It’s not about having the most gear — it’s about having the right setup and knowing how to use it.

What are volume headshots? 🤔⬇️

They’re a quick, efficient way to give professionals access to high-quality headshots—without needing a full session.

Perfect for office buildings, coworking spaces, and companies that want to offer something valuable to their teams or tenants. Everyone signs up for a time slot, gets guided through a short session, and walks away with a polished, professional image.

Simple, streamlined, and a great experience all around.
