The Pre-consultation
Family is clearly important to you. What's the best way to capture and celebrate that ideal?
Your session fee includes a pre-consultation during which we'll determine where we're headed:
What do you envision when you think of family portraits? How do you imagine your children will most value experiencing these images in the future? Are there friends and family who would value having photographs of your family and what might be the best gift for them?
We'll discuss all of this in a phone call prior to your photo shoot. In addition, we'll cover some important details like what to wear and how to prepare on the day of the shoot. Our main goal is to make sure we are as prepared as possible so the experience is relaxing and the outcomes are exactly what you'd hoped.
The Portrait Experience
Your portrait experience will last 45 minutes to an hour (sometimes longer for newborn sessions). Session times are strategically scheduled to capture the best light possible, and I will guide you into positions and movements that illicit natural interactions and emotions.
You deserve a photo session experience that feels comfortable and relaxed and generates images you love and can't wait to hang on your walls.
The Ordering Appointment
I know how overwhelming it can be to print pictures.
What size should they be, what frames will match our style, what collection of images will look best?
There are so many beautiful ways to make these memories tangible, but I offer only high quality products that will stand the test of time. Let me guide you to a package that meets the goals we discussed in your pre-consult so you find exactly what speaks to your family's unique needs and style.
Delivery and Hanging
We finish our journey together when your order has arrived in the mail, your memories are on your walls or in your hands, and you are thrilled with the art we have made together.
Holly has a gift of capturing beauty, especially the beauty that is family.
These are THE most beautiful pictures I have of my family.
My husband, who would rather do anything else but pose for family photos, left the shoot saying, "That was fun."
Holly had such a way with my kids. They felt at ease around her and her camera. I felt like Holly gave us such great instructions for capturing shots that looked real and comfortable. She also has a tallent seeing and capturing organic moments as they unfold. The photos that came back were just so beautiful. The hard part was choosing which to keep.
