PORTRAITS

LAMPASAS FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY

Most of my family sessions take place outdoors at an amazing location. I have a studio in downtown Lampasas with ever-changing sets to choose from. Most of my clients come to my bison ranch in Lometa, TX but I would love to help you plan an amazing location closer to you or across the country!

You can expect your family session to be laid back and fun. I do not like to pose kids too much. I find that if I let them be themselves, they will comply when I ask for a smile or give them a special job to do (like making baby laugh!). You will have access to my styling service, Style and Select, to help you curate the perfect coordinating wardrobe and you can choose from my client closet for dresses and children's clothes so you don't have to buy anything new for a one-time use.

If planning isn't your thing, I'll do it all for you! You just sit back and wait for shoot day.

what to expect

My goal for my family sessions is to take a lifestyle photography approach. This means I am focusing on capturing the true spirit and emotion of your family. You can expect some lightly posed images:

Posed images with everyone looking at the camera
Photos of parents with each child or all the children
Siblings all together
Individual portraits of your children
Families together on the ground
Candids and prompted candids
Closeness
but the majority of the gallery will aim to document your family’s true self. Expect to find images with: snuggling, hand holding, hugging, kisses. I will likely tell you to get closer many times throughout our time together! When my clients look at their galleries, I want them to feel the love they have for their families.

After your session, I will be working hard behind the scenes to cull the best photos (eliminating duplicates, blurs, and blinks) Your gallery is typically ready within 2-3 weeks of your session.

Depending on your package, I will soon deliver a watermarked proofing gallery so you can select your favorite images to keep, or upgrade your package after seeing the photos.
