I can't say enough great things about Christina! From start to finish the process is seamless and fun, as she is detail oriented and organized. She is insanely talented and a natural with my busy toddler. She knows all the best tricks to get the shot and gives clear directions that result in the sweetest and most authentic moments. Christina's confidence and calm demeanor is contagious during our session and the photos always exceed our expectations. I can't recommend her enough. She is simply a joy to work with!

For Families In Which Joy + Chaos Coexist

What you get: photographic evidence that our most joyous moments happen even during our most chaotic seasons of life. 

If you’re deep into the toddler stage, and you think it’s impossible to get good photos of them, I’m here to remind you that those stinkers give the most authentic smiles and their endless energy makes every image unique.

If you’re wanting to remember fun day-in-the-life memories of apple picking in an orchard or cookie baking at home, I’m here to make even the mishaps and missteps look beautiful, because all that matters is that you’re together. 

If you want photographs with your camera-shy partner prone to weirded out, Ricky Bobby (what do I do with my hands?) moments, I’m here to use my kooky prompts that are guaranteed to keep things natural, lighthearted, and full of laughs, smiles, and snuggles.

Your Connections + Emotions

Far too often, one or both parents are missing from the family albums. I get you in the picture (& printed) so that I can preserve your love for one another. I want these images to serve not only as a reminder to you of how little your children/fur babies were but as evidence to them of how much they were loved.

As a camera-clutching mama, one of my missions is to get parents in the frame.

TRUTH OF THE
MOMENT

You may not want to remember the sticky hands and smelly diapers right now, but years down the road you will. I capture the small moments like the toothless baby drool you'll want to relive five years down the road.

You're so busy with the toddler meltdowns that you turn around and your tyke is now a teen.

I capture the honest family connections, not buttoned up versions you don't recognize in photos.

During our phone conversation you will share your photography goals and a little bit about your family through a questionnaire. I will explain the process, even if your kids/fur babies interrupt. Once your session fee is paid, you are booked and will have access to the complimentary styling service and my client closet. You will also receive your What to Expect Guide to prepare for your session.

Within two-three weeks of our time together, you will receive your gallery of curated, hand edited images in a slideshow to view in the comfort of your home. I will give you a heads-up so you can plan your own viewing party. You will decide on your collection which include a number of digital files and an amount to apply at the gallery shop to fill your homes and pass along your legacy with wall work, fine art albums, and more. 

Every session is filled with giggles and sillies, as I capture what you love to do as a family, the moments that light you up, and the connections you have with one another. 

Complimentary Styling for Your Session

As a busy parent, I know the struggle for getting enough alone time to search in stores or even online for picture-worthy outfits. That’s why I cover all the bases for you. Style and Select creates a stress-free process for you to choose clothing items based on your goal vibe + color scheme for your session.

What clients/collaborators Love About This Service

• You can upload an image of pieces you already have to see them side by side or from my Client Closet with new pieces.

Whether your family likes heading off on yet another weekend adventure to a pumpkin patch, farm, brewery, or winery or simply spending time together at home, I’ll preserve the memories and legacy for generations. Plus, you'll be in the frame!

• It is the equivalent of laying all the clothes out on your bed and seeing what works together even if you haven’t purchased them yet.

• It handpicks items from brands  like Free People, Gap, and online boutiques. 

• There is flexibility on which items to purchase. You can use the style sheet as a guide for shopping or can easily purchase those exact items online.

Booking your session will give you the access you need to set style goals, share color inspiration, and end up with a custom style board with ideas of pieces to purchase or doppelgängers to pull at home.

• It saves time!

Christina had the hardest job of taking shots of another photographer's children. She kept my kids engaged and helped create authentic photos that I will treasure forever. I was impressed with her ability to calm the chaos. – Tj
