the best way to celebrate your life
I'm sure you love spending time in your backyard with your family, doing the things you love most. Right?! It's the perfect location for your next photo session, and before you ask, no it doesn't have to be "aesthetic". In fact, the more lived in the better!
The Summer Backyard Session is on!
A unique Session
This is supposed to be your real life, what you live every day. Believe me when I say these photos will be the ones you pull out every year to revisit. You'll love seeing your happy little life.
Real Life
Not like on TV, but documentary-style photography. This isn't meant to be "pretty" but it can be! You don't need to shop for outfits, or even do your hair. In fact, the messier the better.
Documentary
This summer through August 15th I'm offering these evening sessions and YOU GET TO CHOOSE THE DATE! Unlike mini sessions where I set the day, this time you're in charge.
June - July - August
These sessions are, as the name implies, right there in your own backyard! I'll come to you and spend 45 minutes as a fly on the wall while you spend time with your family.
Backyard Session
Ok but what is it?
In 5, 10, 20, or even 50 years, you'll forget what your day-to-day life was like. You'll forget how your daughter used to twirl her hair as she watched her big brother playing on the swings. You'll forget how their little noses scrunched when you made them giggle. Summer Backyard Sessions are the perfect way to commemorate this season in your life.
Your Season
Your home is important to your family's legacy, especially if you end up moving away from it later in life. You'll want these memories frozen in time. It's also the place you and your littles feel most comfortable. So let your hair down, take off your shoes, and spend some quality time with your fam.
Your Home
You get to spend time with your family, screen free, in your backyard doing the things you love together! I can tell you from experience that kids LOVE looking at photos of them just being themselves, so this is a gift to your future self AND your kiddos, too.
Your Family
Ok but why should i book this session?
I'm obviously an athlete, so let's play sport ball! Ok, ok, I'm not coordinated, but if you love any sports, show it off for the camera!
Sport Ball
Why wouldn't you jump in the pool for your backyard photos if you already have it up and running? Splash and swim time!
Pool Party
Is dinner a big event in your family and you want to celebrate it? Grab a blanket and head out back for a nourishing and sweet evening!
Picnic
Love spending time grilling and getting the whole family involved? Fire it up and cook your fav dinner!
Grill
Got a fire pit? Let's make s'mores! Ooey gooey marshmallows, chocolate, AND graham crackers, how could your kids say no?!
Make S'mores
Whip out the splash pad, get the kiddos in swim suits (or not, you do you) and splash around for a silly and fun time!

Let's talk activities!
We'll choose 2 activities to do during your 45 minute backyard session. Here's a few ideas!
Our family photoshoot with Emily was a breeze. I highly recommend her for any families that don’t want a typical, stressful photoshoot, but a fun and relaxing experience.
Emily Hanes
Emily is a truly incredible photographer. She has been so patient with my twin toddlers, and somehow managed to get phenomenal shots (both candid and posed) despite their rambunctious energy.
Elizabeth Lombard
We love Emily!! My kiddos aren’t always the easiest to photograph… but she’s incredibly patient and is great at keeping the kids entertained!
Jamie Richardson
Don't Just take it from me!
