Every family has their own unique story. I love working together to capture your family, creating art to last a lifetime. The bond between parents and child, between siblings, and multigenerational bonds are absolutely priceless. There is no time like the present to capture these beautiful relationships.

Family Photoshoots are best booked a minimum of 6 weeks to 8 weeks in advance of your desired photoshoot date.

Our sessions are a luxury experience from start to finish. You have my guidance every step of the way to ensure a stress-free experience, with results customized to your preferences.

After booking, we meet in the studio or via virtual meeting to discuss the plan for your family photography session. Photoshoots can take place at a location of your choice or in my Waterbury, CT, portrait studio. I have some favorite locations I'm happy to recommend, though I love learning about new places and exploring if you have a specific location in mind!

A clothing consultation is included in your family photoshoot. Many clients bring me into their closets virtually or send me pictures to help put together the coordinated outfits. I am more than happy to give my input!

Session day starts with complimentary hair and makeup services in the studio for Moms so that you look your very best! A standard family or child photography session is unlimited in time to ensure we have captured a variety of picture-perfect images that you will absolutely love. I snap photos until the very end to ensure we don't miss any of those candid moments. If desired, we can combine some studio and outdoor sets to create a beautiful, varied gallery for you.

A few days after your session, you will be called for your photo reveal. At your in-person viewing session, we review your images together and select the images you would like to purchase. You will also have the opportunity to order professional-grade prints, wall art, and custom albums featuring your family photos.

Once your images are chosen, the editing magic begins. I'll perform thorough editing, including full facial retouching, to make sure your family portraits are nothing less than perfect. Every shoot comes with 2 images with complementary head swaps. Additional head swaps are available for purchase.

My favorite part of the portrait experience is receiving the final product! When you receive your beautiful products to have and to love, whether it's displayed on your coffee table or large on the wall. You should enjoy it for many years to come!
