I think there is something really special about photographing every day life, someone who photographs the messy and the beautiful.
My family sessions aren’t 30 minutes and unfortunately I don't offer those “mini sessions” because I feel like you can’t photograph real life in such a pressured amount of time. Sometimes kids aren’t ready and it takes a little bit to warm up and have fun, to really show their personality.
Most of my sessions last from 1.5-2 hours. They aren’t a let’s sit and pose in front of the camera for a pretty portrait. More so let me see into your daily life, let’s walk around the neighborhood or let me see how you love baking with your kids. Those memories you wish you could capture, but are never the same via a phone.
It doesn’t mean a portion of the session won’t have an amazing Christmas photo, it just means there will be so much more to it that you will cherish.
Family session fee for photos within 1 hour of Los Angeles: $1200 for 1.5 hours. All galleries include anywhere from 50-200 images.
