What to Expect

February 1, 2019

I want to cover a few questions and concerns I get asked frequently in hopes of helping you know what you can expect when booking a session with me. I know it may be hard to believe (especially if you have had a bad family photo experience in the past) but we are going to have fun together! I know for most people, (husbands especially) having their photo taken is not something they look forward to. I know just how to make you feel comfortable and relax in front of my camera to capture natural smiles and emotion. When you book a session, you will receive my free Welcome Guide full of tips for choosing outfits and lots of great info to ensure your experience goes as smoothly as possible.

Here is how a typical family session will go… I always start with the entire family smiling and looking at the camera. After we get a few of those shots, we will break off into smaller groups as well as get individual shots. We will finish your session by all coming back together. This is the fun part where we play games and get more candid shots! I try to get some more tender/loving shots as well as some playful ones. You will cry happy tears when you see the photos of you loving on your sweet family and just having fun together!

Portrait minis are always a big hit with clients! Portrait minis are always a big hit with clients! Here’s what they’re saying.
These photos were part of an extended family sessi These photos were part of an extended family session from last May. May is typically my busiest month, behind the fall season. If you’re craving some green in your life, I’m now scheduling April and May. If you wait until it gets closer, there’s a good chance I won’t be able to accommodate you. I especially hate when I have to turn seniors away, so let’s get those scheduled ASAP. I LOVE senior sessions! #utahseniorphotographer #utahfamilyphotographer
