Family Sessions with this Buffalo, NY Photographer

“Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.”

-Dr. Seuss

I’m here to make sure that your memories - your toddler laughing, silly faces between siblings, you and your partner in the crazy, chaotic, happy trenches - are forever documented for you to look back on.

You can find an overview for a family photography session below.

01. BOOK

To book your session, click the button below to get started! I’ll send over my session guide, and you’ll pick a date that works best for your family.

To reserve your session, you’ll sign a digital contract and pay the $125 session fee—which covers planning, my time and expertise during the session, and all the magic I work afterward to make your photos shine.

You’ll have me guiding you the whole way, plus access to my private client lounge webpage with tips on what to wear, prepping your kids, and more.

02. YOUR SESSION

On the day of your session, We’ll meet at our chosen location, and I’ll guide you every step of the way—helping with natural posing and prompts to evoke genuine moments and laughter.

We’ll move around to capture a variety of beautiful moments, and if you have multiple kids, I’ll know their names (though I might mix them up—I do it with my own, too. Mom brain is real 😉).

Family sessions typically last about an hour—and it will be relaxed and fun!

03. COLLECTIONS

Around 3 weeks after your session, you’ll receive all the edited images from your session in a beautifully curated slideshow set to music. It is an emotional and memorable experience to view your images for the first time.

From there, you’ll choose from three collections. Each one includes digital images plus a print credit to use toward any products in your personal gallery shop—like prints, albums, or wall art.

This allows to you first view your images and then make a decision that best fits your family’s needs.

Collections start at $600

FAQs

  • All sessions can be held outdoors or in the comfort of your own home. I have some favorite outdoor locations in the area to help you choose and you can check out my blog post here for some of my favorite locations around Buffalo.

  • Approximately 1 hour. I try to move fast with kids!

  • A print credit is essentially a gift card that can be used to purchase any prints or products from the gallery store. You’ll receive a coupon code in your email after purchasing a collection that you can use toward any item in the gallery store. This ensures that you will walk away from your session with art you can display in your home!

    Digital images are wonderful (and included with every collection!) but they tend to live on our phones or computers. Printed products allow you to see your images every day!

  • Approximately 3 weeks after your session, you’ll receive a link in your email to the slideshow set to music. It will contain all the edited images from your session and you can have a viewing party.

    After that, you’ll be able to choose your collection and download your desired images.
