Some sessions are special because of the location. Some are special because of the light. And some are special because you get to watch a whole story unfold over time. This family is one of those stories. Over the course of a year, I had the joy of photographing them three times. First for maternity photos. Then newborn portraits at home. And finally, a one-year milestone session in the fall woods.

Fall is one of the most popular times of year for family photos—and for good reason. The golden light, cozy vibes, and gorgeous colors make the perfect backdrop for portraits. But fall also marks the beginning of a new school year, which means it’s the perfect opportunity to capture both family portraits and updated individual photos of your kids—all in one session.

Family reunions are rare and precious — the laughter, the stories, the cousins playing, the way grandparents’ eyes light up surrounded by their children and grandchildren. These moments deserve more than a quick phone snapshot. They deserve to be preserved beautifully, with everyone in the frame.

Are you dreaming of a senior or family photo session that’s more than just a quick stop and a few posed smiles? What if your photo session could be an experience, a memory in itself? A "Summer Family Adventure Session" is designed to do just that, creating a truly unique and meaningful way to capture your family’s story, especially as you celebrate a high school senior’s milestone.

Getting ready for your family photo session this summer? You’ve booked the date, picked the location, and now you're staring into everyone's closets wondering… what on earth should we wear? Don’t worry—I’ve got you.

Time flies—seriously. One minute you’re figuring out your locker combo, and the next you’re ordering your cap and gown. Senior year is a whirlwind of emotions, achievements, and major life changes, and your senior photos should capture it all.
