A lot of times when I book family portraits people want something laidback and casual—but Annie, Matt, and their two girls were all about formal! They waited a while before coming to my photo studio because they knew they wanted a formal shoot and needed some time to gather clothing. Love the outfits they put together! I think the girls especially enjoyed playing dress up.

This family wanted to get some shots where they were all looking serious—kind of a throwback to pre-1900s portrait photography. But we also did some smiling photos and put our signature fun twist on these family portraits even though they were formal. I think the mix—and fancy dress—makes their session so fun and unique!

I’m a big believer in making sure your photo session reflects your personality and tastes. I think it’s so fun that this family knew exactly what they wanted and weren’t afraid to do something different! These family portraits really are one of a kind—and that’s what I want your photos to be too. If you’re interested in booking a family photo session, don’t hesitate to let me know what kind of look you’re going for. I’m happy to work with you to create finished images that are totally you!
