the details
I believe every season deserves to be captured. From the beginning of your love story, to the start of your family, the moments your littles are just that: little, and you want to remember them that little forever. These are the moments I live for, and want to help preserve them for you for years to come. My goal for each session is to provide an experience unique to you. That you will remember forever, and be able to flip through an Album of photos from that session or view your beautiful prints on your wall.
A lifetime of memories

Picking out outfits can seem daunting. Not to worry. I have you covered! After we are official, I will send over a prep guide to help you prepare for your session. Including tips on outfit and color selection and how to handle kids who won't behave like we need them to.
The Prep
the process —
I like to check in with you before your session to see how things are going and also have you fill out a questionnaire, (more specifically for my family sessions) so that I can get to know your family a little better and learn the names and ages of the kids. This helps me to be able to better prepare for your session and ensure that you have the best experience possible.

We love working with Heather year after year for our family photos! She is flexible in her scheduling, makes us feel relaxed and at ease during the session, exceeds expectations for turnaround time, and delivers the most beautiful photos. Even with kids and babies in the worst moods, she still manages to get gorgeous shots of them. Her joyful personality makes the session fun for everyone - even my husband looks forward to having our pictures taken each year!
Her joyful personality makes it fun for everyone!”

Heather is the full package - kind, patient, and delivers amazing photos. We have used her twice for family photos and would 100% recommend to friends and family. She is great with small children- patient and willing to take her time. We never felt rushed and she got great group photos as well as individual shots of our young children. Thank you Heather! If you're reading this review - stop and book Heather for your photos you will not be disappointed!

FAQ
Something very important to me when scheduling your session, particularly if you are vacationing at the beach, is that I always try to schedule as close to the beginning of your vacation as possible. That way in case there is rain or bad weather in the forecast, we still have time to reschedule. later in the week. Remember, as long as it’s not raining or storming, I can still shoot with an overcast/cloudy sky. We may just need to bump the time up an hour or so to help with the lighting. It can tend to look a little more dark the closer to the “sunset time” we get. I also do not completely fill up my week with sessions so that I can allow/accommodate for rain dates I may have to reschedule for later in the week.
What do we do
if it rains?
questions —
The sooner the better! My weekends tend to fill up pretty quickly - especially during the spring and fall due to weddings, so the sooner you reach out to me, the more likely you are to get your desired date!
To reserve your date, I'll need a contract as well as a deposit. And if something comes up and you need to change your date, just let me know!
How far in advance should we book?

If picking out outfits for photos takes you back to your high school days when you literally tried on everything in your closet and piled it on your bed but still felt like you had nothing to wear, you're in luck.
I've put together an extensive outfit suggestion guide with tips for every member of the family.
What should we wear?
questions —
Unless you've modeled professionally, you're probably going to feel awkward in front of the camera. Shoot, I take photos for a living and I even feel like a deer in the headlights when I'm in front of the camera.
You're going to feel awkward at first, but as the session goes on and I coach you through images, I think you'll find that being photographed can actually be fun. And don't worry about your kids. I'm well versed in capturing even the busiest of little ones.
We're awkward and our kids don't sit still.
