Vermont Family Portraits

Consider yourself warned…

A Vermont family portrait session with me just might become your families newest favorite tradition.

So many of the families I photograph return year after year, trusting me to witness their story as it unfolds. To be invited back, to watch children grow and relationships deepen, is an honor I hold close and never take lightly.

No need to wait for a milestone — today is already something to celebrate

No matter the season you’re in — whether your babies are brand new, nearly grown, or covered in fur — this moment in your life is fleeting, and it matters.

These Vermont family portrait sessions were born from my former wedding couples who weren’t ready to stop sharing their story with me. They wanted to keep the feeling, the connection, the memory of what now looks like. And somewhere along the way, I fell in love with documenting the perfectly imperfect that is the chaos of everyday life.

Let’s pack some snacks and have a little everyday adventure together.Let’s choose a place that feels like home to you. Let’s create images that don’t just fill frames on your walls, but hold the joy of this season — long after it has gently passed.  to wait for a milestone — today is already something to celebrate.

Specializing in natural, warm, true-to-life outdoor and in-home Vermont Family Portrait photography.

"Last time my kids won't sit still how are you going to get good photos?"

They’re kids! Of course they won’t sit still! My trick…playtime between portraits! The best portraits are genuine portraits. By allowing some play time in between “Traditional Portraits”  you and your kids will feel more comfortable and we’ll be able to capture some genuine family joy!

FREQUENT
QUESTIONS

frequently asked

No one wants to look like a wet dog in their photos so if it looks like it’s going to rain, snow, hail or some other weather catastrophe, we’ll be in touch via email or phone to reschedule. Often, when we’re scheduling our initial portrait session date, if it works for our calendars, we’ll actually set up both a main date and a rain date just to make sure we don’t have to postpone your session for very long if the weather is bad on the original date.

The sooner the better! Our weekends tend to fill up pretty quickly – especially during the spring and fall, so the sooner you reach out to us, the more likely you are to get your desired date!

If picking out outfits for photos takes you back to your high school days when you literally tried on everything in your closet and piled it on your bed but still felt like you had nothing to wear, you’re in luck.

We put together an extensive outfit suggestion guide with tips for every member of the family (even Fido!)

Unless you’ve modeled professionally, you’re probably going to feel awkward in front of the camera. Heck, we take photos for a living and we even feel like a deer in the headlights when we’re in front of the camera.

You’re going to feel awkward at first, but as the session goes on and we coach you through images, we think you’ll find that being photographed can actually be fun. And don’t worry about your kids. We’re well versed in capturing even the busiest of little ones.

Within a few weeks of your session, you’ll receive a link to a digital gallery that will allow you to download high resolution images.

The gallery is also set up to make ordering prints, canvases and other keepsakes as easy as turning on a Roomba to clean your floors. No worrying about tricky things like color correction, DPI and image format.
