Choosing the right photographer for your family is more than just pretty pictures (although that’s important too!)- it’s about finding someone who feels like a good fit for your family story! Here are a few questions I love to ask when considering who I want to photograph my own family and to help you consider who is best for you beyond what looks good on social media.

Do you love how their images feel?

You want someone that aligns with your taste and style. You feel like you could easily see your family fit into that photographer’s aesthetic.

Do their images feel like something you’d want on your walls for years to come?

Look for tones, light and storytelling that reflect your specific taste (not just what’s trendy on social media).

Will the experience put your whole family at ease?

The right photographer for you will help your kids feel comfortable, guide you with confidence, and create a space where everyone can just be themselves.

How does this photographer care for the full experience – not just the photos themselves?

You want someone who will communicate clearly, respond thoughtfully, and make you feel supported from inquiry to gallery delivery.

Your family photos deserve to be captured in a way that feels honest + authentic to you – whether I’m your family photographer or not! However, if the care behind my work and my specific style feel like home to you, I’d love to help you make some magic. Let’s chat friend!
