Your experience means everything to us.
It was our dream to create something different, not just for your pictures but for your experience as well. Something that would uncover and highlight all the beauty in your present. Something that will give you a boost of energy to fuel your future. Something that will preserve it all for what will eventually be the past.
First, we begin with planning!
Your experience starts with your story. We begin with a short 20 minute phone call to discover what's most important to you. Then, we use those details to create a personalized experience that will allow us to create authentic heirloom art for your family.
Second, we have fun at the photoshoot!
The photoshoot experience is where we capture all those candid, authentic, and deeply connected images that will eventually become the art you'll be enjoying every day in your home or office.
Lastly, we deliver your images!
The last step is where you get to see your images for the first time. Bring out the tissues because this is where those happy tears join us for the party! This can be done online and allows you to choose from one of a kind heirlooms including prints, albums, frames, galleries, or canvas art.
Simply use the new "Book Now" button on this site to choose the type of session that best fits your needs in this season.
At this time we offer three session type options which include a full session, a half session, and we may have some seasonal mini sessions available at various times of the year.
Once you select a type of session, pick a date as close to the date that you would like and make the first payment to hold your session date. Half of the session payment is due upon booking and the remaining is due 30 days prior to the session date.
You will receive instructions and a custom client questionnaire within 48 hours of booking.
The client questionnaire allows us to provide exceptional service for every client by creating a personalized session experience.
From there, we begin planning by finalizing the location, date, and time suitable for your needs.
We understand and this is true for most people.
That is why we have designed a styling system to make this stress-free and fun!
We start with a shared overall “vision” based on the heirlooms you intend to display in your home and office.
We use a combination of your goals, style, and tools such as vision boards to create some style boundaries.
Finally, clients love the option to borrow one of our many client wardrobe items which include clothes and accessories for moms, maternity, children, and babies. We send a link to items that suite your sizes and style. See more about the client closet in the next section below.
We are here to make things easy and fun!
Our clients are typically busy moms and business owners, so we have created a client closet for those that need something to wear, love to dress up, or are simply too busy too shop!
Once you book, you will have full access to our client closet. We have items for the mamma to be, mothers, children, babies, newborns, and even men and boys.
We work together to select the items that suite your sizes and style. You simply pick the items you love, and we will bring them to your session along with a changing tent for your convenience and privacy.
If you love any of the dresses on this website, chances are they are part of the client closet and available to you! We carry items from retailers like Free People as well as specialty handmade boutiques like WeAre Reclamatian in Canada.
Sessions with us are more laid back, relaxed, and fun because we've designed an easy system to prepare clients well ahead of time.
For families, we shoot for a family night out vibe. Same with couples and motherhood sessions.
Our style is to capture authentic moments so we'll be directing you the whole time to relax and be your selves.
Most people and kids are used to the pressure of "smiling and looking at the camera" which is not our studio's style. We take a few of those for Christmas cards and for keepsakes but our goals are to capture real connection and details. Dads and kids love that they don't need to fake perfection and tend to be more relaxed and have fun!
We offer a limited number of mini sessions to our community of subscribers.

Subscribers have first access to studio specials including limited mini sessions.
That is exactly why we are here. Digital files are great but it's a risky strategy to preserve your memories solely in that one way. Files become corrupt, hard drives crash, computers stop working, etc.
Preserving with high quality inks and papers, albums, and sealed frames are the way to not only preserve but to enjoy your legacy now and later.
We help you choose heirlooms once your images are ready!
