Our family portrait sessions are described by our clients as relaxed, creative, timeless, and innovative. Christina is happy to meet with you in-home or on location to create family portraits. We work at a relaxed pace on the day of your photoshoot so that you don’t realize you are having your family portrait taken. Christina can create original pieces of art for you by making sure that everyone has fun. Family portraits are an important part of family history. First, we photograph the whole family together. Then, we break up into groups in any combination you’d like.
Make The Perfect Holiday Cards With A Professional Family Photoshoot
Family portrait sessions are a great time of year to plan a session. It is worth the effort to capture one of the best times of the year when everyone is together.
We can capture everything, from matching Christmas pajamas to formal Hanukkah dinners and New Years’ celebrations. We can also capture your baby’s first holiday season with our newborn photography experience.
Christina values communication and strives to make a booking with us easy for families. We will help you and your family from the moment you contact us until the day of your shoot. We can help you with outfit suggestions and a list to find locations. When it comes time to take family portraits, you only need to show up.
