Family portraits may just be the closest thing we have to keeping them little forever.
We know that you love your kids and you want them to stay this little forever. We can't freeze time but we can ensure that you have the memories of the fleeting magic of childhood. After all, their childhood is also your parenthood and that deserves to be documented.
Imagine this: your toddler runs over to the wall in your living room to see a framed picture of themself. They look at you and proudly say, "Mama, that's me!" Numerous studies have shown the profound impact on a child's development when family portraits are displayed on the walls of their home. It is a visual reminder that they belong, are safe, and are loved. This boost in self-esteem is a gift that they will carry throughout life.
We recently had a family photoshoot with our energetic toddler, and I cannot express enough how impressed we were with the entire process and the stunning results. If you are looking for a relaxed and fun experience, with beautiful light and airy photos to treasure for years to come, she's your girl!

If you have taken a look at our work and it resonates with you, please feel free to reach out via our contact form.
We will book a 15 minute planning call so go over all of your wishes for your session and get to know you a little better. If you wish to work via email with us, that's okay too. Throughout your time with us, we will meet you where you are to make the process stress-free for your family. To us, that's what laid-back luxury really means.
Once we have you on the calendar, we will start talking outfits and book hair and makeup (optional add-on). This is the part that a lot of families dread and really appreciate the assistance. We have an exclusive Client Wardrobe filled with dresses for Moms, mens shirts and timeless outfits for your children. You can either choose something from the Client Wardrobe or we will help you style your family through style guides, links to our favorite websites, and expert guidance. No more panic buying from Amazon the week of your session!
Outfits will be steamed and hung for you, hair and makeup will be on standby to make you feel beautiful... all we need is you and your sweet family. Our style is very relaxed and candid so your only job is to show up and enjoy your most favorite people in the world. The beauty of the images comes from where you are, what you are wearing, but most importantly, the love and connection between your family. Want to find out a little bit more about our style and process? Take a look here.
A few weeks after our time together, we will meet again for an ordering appointment so we can discuss what you'd like to purchase for images and/or artwork. We have an a la carte system and believe our clients should only purchase the images they absolutely love. We don't believe in locking you into confusing collections or print credits. At this appointment, we will show you our heirloom and matted album options and show you custom wall art for your home. We know how framing photos and creating albums gets put on the back burner when you're a parent so we will do it all for you.

FAQ
For outdoor sessions, we have a few designated locations that we love because of the lighting, familiarity, and the end product we are able to create. You are also more than welcome to do a family session in our light + bright studio setting in Manchester.
We get this question A LOT. What we have learned is the magic typically happens when we stop stressing out and just follow their lead. We will play games, take breaks for snacks, and make sure it is child-led (while still getting stunning images). The biggest issue you'll face is your toddler won't want to leave! See this blog post about how we handle toddlers!
My Toddler is WILD. How will you handle this?
Absolutely! We offer packages of 7, 15, or the full gallery so you can decide what suits your family best. These are delivered in an online gallery with all printing rights. Send us an inquiry for more information about pricing of your digital files.
