ALL-INCLUSIVE INVESTMENT

Your Session Experience

My approach to family photography is simple, warm, and down-to-earth. My goal is to connect, have a good time, and put everyone at ease to make the family photography experience enjoyable. While you are enjoying your family together, walking, talking, laughing, I strive to craft and capture natural, beautiful moments that reflect your family in a genuine way. We capture photographs in natural light that mirror the love, fun, and feeling found in your unique family. Whether you're having an extended family session or an intimate session in your home, it's all awesome. Come as you are and we will capture some magic.

For family sessions, we will meet at a Northwest Indiana outdoor location, Chicago South Suburbs, or Chicagoland location. Some families choose to have a family session inside their home.

Newborn sessions are always held in the comfort of your home.

Simple, All-Inclusive Pricing

My style of photography results in a collection of images that speaks to your family's unique beauty and connection. Those photographs are meaningful and you deserve to have them. I will edit an artist's choice of the best quality images from the session and include a minimum of 35 for you to keep forever.

There's a discount for certain weekdays listed under the session. Travel fees may apply past a 15 mile radius of Griffith, IN. All sessions are shot on location.

ABOUT THE SESSION: My sessions are customized to you and your family. Our session will focus on love, fun, connection, energy, and those seemingly small, perfectly imperfect details. While the majority of the session will be focused on interactions, I strive to get a great set of natural feeling, lightly posed images with everyone looking at the camera. We capture fleeting moments during our time together. We may sing, dance, laugh, tell jokes, be silly during our session. It makes for beautiful photos. We capture your family just as you are, and focus on creating personal art that will always remind you of how well-loved your family has been. We'll meet outdoors, at the beach, a forest preserve, a field, a park, or a different outdoor or indoor location like in your home. All homes will work for this.
