loving family outside during golden hour

who we are

We are a husband and wife photography team but I (Ellen) photograph all of our portrait sessions. I’m a mama of 4 rambunctious but amazing boys who are near impossible to photograph so I’ve developed the patience of a saint, LOL!

HOW i WORK

Your family is special! My goal is to create photos in a fun, relaxed way, but also  arrange you into flattering and meaningful poses. I’m there to capture the unique dynamics of your family, generational gaps, sibling camaraderie and showcase each of your individual personalities.

the experience

I’m here to help as much as is needed! Want advice on outfits to wear? Can’t decide on where to go for your photoshoot? I’m happy to help! The hour to follow is spent walking around that location stopping here and there for different groupings and backdrops. I’ll always have pose ideas so feel free to let us do all the work, but of course we’re happy to accommodate any pose & grouping ideas you have. We want what you want! After an aprx. 3 week turn around, you’ll receive 40+ edited & downloadable photos in an online gallery.

We are on-location photographers and I’ll meet you wherever you’d like! Typically this means a beautiful park or a great downtown area. We’re happy to make suggestions as well!

We charge by the hour, it’s that simple. Whatever groupings and people you want to fit into a 1 hour session, I’m great with that! Depending on how many groupings you want, we may suggest extending your session to 1 1/2 hours to make sure you’re getting exactly what you want!
