Family Sessions
Because I know how fast these moments go
Finding the best family photographer is a personal choice so look around to see if my style is a fit for you. I take a lifestyle approach to photography, which is a mix between documentary and classic portraits. My style is bright and airy, with a modern, simple aesthetic. My photographs capture candid moments and everything in between.

Q. WHAT SHOULD WE EXPECT DURING OUR SESSION?
Expect to have fun, laugh, play...you get the idea. My approach to photography is lifestyle - which is a mix between documentary and classic portraits. For the majority of our session, you'll be interacting with your family so we can get more authentic and less "posey" shots. My goal is to take pictures that look natural and "candid". And don't worry if you feel uncomfortable having your photo taken (I do!) or if your children don't like to sit still. I'll provide direction to help your family feel natural in front of the camera.
Q. WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR?
Most importantly wear something you feel yourself in. Neutrals tend to look nice in photos but a soft pop of colour or two can also work nicely if you like colour. A tip is to try to coordinate your family's outfits, without being too "matchy matchy".
Q. WHAT IF IT RAINS FOR AN OUTDOOR SHOOT?
If the weather forecast is questionable, I will review the weather report and usually make a call 4 hours or so before the session on whether to proceed. If we are doing an early morning session, we’ll chat the night before. If the weather isn't cooperating, we will reschedule for a mutually agreeable future date. No worries if it's not a sunny day - cloudy days can actually make for great pictures!
Q. WHERE WILL THE PHOTOSHOOT TAKE PLACE?
I have lots of places to recommend in the Deep River area, including a couple hidden gems! I can suggest a gorgeous beach location or one of the many parks. Or if you have access to private locations I'm happy to meet there as well!
