Grandparents, cousins, the dog, and whoever wandered toward the water.
Bringing everyone
Sessions built around short attention spans
Family sessions are planned around the tide chart and a toddler’s patience, in that order. We keep the group moving, take the posed frames early while everyone is still willing, and then let the rest of the hour be what it is — which is usually where the photographs you actually frame come from.
Sample collections
Family photographs without the rush
Sample pricing only: Beach Story from $650, Extended Family from $850, and a shorter Senior or Maternity Story from $575.
Each example includes sunset planning, a mix of full-group and smaller groupings, patient direction for children, edited high-resolution files, and a private online gallery. Replace these examples with your own offerings.
Questions, answered
What if the kids will not cooperate?
They always do, eventually. Sessions are paced with play in mind, and some of the best frames happen between the posed ones.
What time works best for little ones?
Golden hour is kindest for light and moods. For toddlers we can also plan an earlier session on a quiet stretch of beach.
How many photographs do we receive?
A typical session delivers dozens of individually edited images in a private online gallery, with full-resolution downloads and printing rights included.
