Each year, I carefully plan a small collection of family sessions designed to fit different seasons and stages of life. From cozy studio portraits to playful spring minis, each offering is created with intention and a focus on creating a relaxed experience for your family.
If you are deciding which session is the best fit, this guide walks through each 2026 option and what makes it special.
Winter Family Studio Minis are perfect for families who want timeless portraits without worrying about unpredictable weather. These sessions take place in the studio and are designed to be calm, efficient, and comfortable for parents and children alike.
The studio setting allows me to focus on soft light, natural expressions, and simple styling that keeps the images feeling classic. This session is ideal for families who want beautiful portraits with a shorter time commitment while still receiving images they will love for years.
Spring Family Sessions are a wonderful choice for families who love outdoor images filled with movement and connection. As the landscape begins to bloom, these sessions offer a natural and relaxed setting that allows children to explore and families to interact in a genuine way.
With more time built into the session, there is room for a variety of images, from posed family portraits to candid moments that reflect your family’s true dynamic. These sessions are especially meaningful for families who want images that feel warm, joyful, and full of life.
The Blooms & Bunny Mini is a favorite for families with young children and those looking to celebrate spring in a playful and memorable way. These sessions include a sweet spring setup with florals and a real, gentle bunny that children can safely interact with during the session.
The bunny is handled with care and introduced slowly, creating a calm and enjoyable experience for little ones. These minis are designed to be short and engaging, resulting in joyful, seasonal images that feel both whimsical and heartfelt.
Mommy & Me Minis are focused on capturing the bond between a mother and her child. These sessions are intentionally simple, allowing space for connection, closeness, and authentic emotion.
Many mothers hesitate to step in front of the camera, but these sessions are designed to feel natural and comfortable. The images created during Mommy & Me Minis often become some of the most treasured, preserving a season of life that changes so quickly.
When deciding which session to book, consider the time of year, your children’s ages, and how you plan to use your images. Mini sessions are perfect for seasonal updates or themed portraits, while full family sessions offer more flexibility and variety.
Every session is planned with care to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience from start to finish.
Session availability is limited and offered on select dates throughout the year. Once a session is fully booked, additional spots are not added.
If one of these sessions feels like the right fit for your family, I encourage you to reserve your spot early. I look forward to welcoming you and creating meaningful images for your family in 2026.
