Everyone together, looking good—and done in a way that still feels like your family.
These sessions are usually one of the only times everyone is in the same place. There’s a lot to coordinate, and that main group photo matters.
I’ll move us through it with a plan so we get that photo right, along with all the smaller groupings that matter to you.
And while we’re doing that, I’m paying attention to everything else—so if something genuine happens along the way, we keep that too.
"We love you! On the drive back after photos my husband couldn’t stop talking about how kind you are and how much it meant the way you worked with my little one. We are very grateful. 🤍" - Hayley
What this actually feels like
Structured, but not stressful.
I’ll move us through everything with a clear plan so no one is left wondering what’s next or how long this will take.
Not everyone needs to be “on” the whole time. We’ll rotate through what’s needed, give people space when it helps, and come back to things if we need to.
I’m paying attention the whole time—keeping things moving, while also keeping an eye on everyone.
"You blessed us by creating lasting, tangible evidence of our experiences together. I appreciate you so much!!" - Cindy
Before Your Session
I’ll take care of the plan ahead of time so you don’t have to piece it together.
- A clear approach for your group and timing
- Help thinking through groupings and priorities
- Location guidance based on size, mobility, and feel
- A simple way to keep everyone organized without overcomplicating it
If there’s anything I should know about your group, you can share it with me—I’ll factor it in.
After Your Session
Everything is delivered in a way that’s easy to use and share.
- Full gallery of edited images
- High-resolution downloads
- Light retouching on favorites
- Turnaround: about 1–2 weeks (or 3-4 over the holidays)
“My husband’s family doesn’t typically love photos—but they always love their sessions with you❣️” - Cid
Best scheduling & start times
If you’re visiting, plan your session early in your trip. It makes a big difference.
By the end of a trip, people are usually overly-tired, overly-scheduled and quite sunburned—and you can see it in the photos.
Sunset light is ideal, and I’ll help you choose a location that works best for your group.
Beaches usually start about 1–2 hours before sunset, while trails and shaded areas give us more flexibility.
A quick note on group size + timing
The amount of time we need depends on what you're hoping for and on your group—how many people, how many individual families, how many little ones, and how everyone tends to move together.
Shorter session
Works well for smaller groups, older kids, or when you’re keeping things simple.
Longer session
Gives us more room for larger groups, younger kids, or more combinations.
Pricing is based on the time we need, not how many people are in your group.
If you’re not sure the best fit for you, I’ll take a look at your group and what you’re hoping for, then recommend the session length that fits best.

"Amazing choice of photographer, our kids were upset and she captured great pictures despite that!" When I asked my husband what his favorite part of our San Diego trip was he said, "Family pictures because we were all together." We had so much fun looking at them this morning. They made us smile, laugh, and feel joy. I was amazed at how well you captured the personalities of our family. We will treasure these memories. Thank you!" - Ashley
I’m really looking forward to meeting your family and creating something beautiful for you
