Pre-Session Planning

A family of four enjoys a morning at home during their newborn photo shoot in Winston-Salem.

I am available (and excited) to help you plan your session.  My goal is for the photos to capture the true essence of your family.  I will send you a prep guide that discusses tips for the session and includes inspiration for clothing options.  We will discuss the lighting in your home to best plan for the day of the session.

Day of Session

Family snuggles on the floor of their kitchen, creating natural connections in their Winston-Salem home.

I want this to be a fun experience for your family - not just a check mark for having family photos made for the year.  When I arrive, you will give me a tour of your home, and we will mainly utilize the spaces that receive the best light.  I will guide you into a flattering position and then encourage natural interaction to showcase the love of your family.
