OUTDOOR FAMILY SESSIONS
Family photos capture the essence of your family's journey.
My family sessions are designed in a storytelling style and are fully guided. Your images will consist of 20% direct gazes into the camera and 80% moments of genuine interaction and enjoyment among family members.
Rather than prompting smiles, I encourage natural expressions by fostering moments of connection between parents and children, playing games, and creating a relaxed atmosphere where the focus shifts away from the camera.
Owning your family photos means holding onto a piece of your family and personal history, worthy of celebration.
Let’s do this!

FAQs
-
I have several locations in and around Bergen County, NJ that I know well about. We might also do a downtown session if your family prefers more of an urban vibe. It’s all custom and we will discuss this well before your session.
-
Ideal start time is within 1.5 to one hour of sunset depending on the location, so the time varies depending on the season. On a sunny day, any sessions earlier of this time frame will not be easy to deliver. However, please let me know if you have tiny kids whose bed time is early so we can figure out the best time for your family.
-
When we set your outdoor session date, you will also pick rain date, so we don’t have to worry about rescheduling. I typically prefer to wait til the morning of the session to decide if we cancel or not. Please trust my experience and I reserve the right to decide if the weather is feasible enough for your session.

After your booking is complete, you will receive comrehensive confirmation that includes how to prepare and what to wear. In general, you want to wear form-fitting, season-appropriate clothing that's not matchy-matchy, in your family's style.

I know your dogs are family members. As long as the location allows (some parks don’t), you are welcome to bring your dog for the last part of the session so your session won’t become all about ‘managing’ the dog and trying to have them look at the camera.
