Coordinating team photos shouldn’t feel like scheduling a board meeting. 😅

That’s why I love using group composites. Instead of trying to get everyone in the same room at the same time (nearly impossible for busy teams, especially doctors!), here’s how it works:

📸 Each person comes in individually

⏱️ We capture their headshot + full-body shot

✅ They’re done in minutes and back to work

🖼️ Later, I combine everyone into one seamless, polished group photo

No stress. No waiting around. And everyone looks their absolute best.

Here are my top tips for creating photos you’ll love for years to come 👇🏻

🎨 Choose a soft, coordinating color palette — think blues, burgundy, and warm earth tones that look gorgeous in outdoor settings.

👕 Stick to classic, solid pieces without big logos or bold patterns for a timeless look.

😊 And most importantly — keep everyone comfortable (especially the kids!) so we can have fun and capture genuine smiles.

Fall sessions fill up fast — let’s plan your perfect family session now so you can relax and enjoy it when the leaves start to turn. 🍁

Want a flawless team photo every time? Here’s the secret ⬇️

Group Composites.

Unlike a traditional group photo — where someone inevitably blinks, looks away, or just isn’t loving their angle — a composite lets me select the best shot of each person individually.

Here’s how it works:

✔️ I photograph each person separately

✔️ Pick their most flattering image

✔️ Edit each headshot to perfection

✔️ Combine them into one cohesive, polished group portrait

The result? A picture-perfect team photo where everyone looks amazing — no retakes, no stress.
