To remember a story
You have to tell it.
You feel it too, right? The pressure to not forget the overwhelming, joy-filled, worry-tinged, how-is-he-growing-so-fast days? The desire to be present, but also bottle up each moment to pull out and live again later? We get it. And we’re here to help.

We will pair it with a voiceover meant to speak life over your children, typically in the form of a love letter or an open prayer. We’ll wrap it all up into a film that your family will cherish.

Questions before booking?
Here are some
helpful resources
How do we prepare for our session?
First of all, don’t worry! Family films might be a new concept to you, but they really aren’t much different than photo sessions. I will send you my family film guide as well as a questionnaire for you to fill out which will help me get to know your family better and allow us all to feel prepared for your film!
What if we need to reschedule our date?
I get it! Life happens. I will always be as flexible as possible with rescheduling. However, if you have to reschedule more than once there will be an additional fee added on.
Will you help us decide what to wear?
I’m happy to help with wardrobe options! In the family film guide you receive after booking, there is a portion on what to wear, but if you find you still have questions or would just like a second opinion on what you’ve chosen, feel free to ask! I want everyone to feel confident on their session day.
Can you recommend locations for our session?
For sure. There are a lot of beautiful places to shoot at, but a good place to start is to think of some spots that mean a lot to your family or hold significance in some way. More than happy to make suggestions or brainstorm with you!
