Family Session at Home | Orlando Family Photographer

I love sessions at home! The vibe is always so chill and the images are always unique. I love when personalities can shine and when the photographs are full of real emotion. I’m down to capture traditional family photos but my most favorite images to leave a family with are the ones that show them just as they are. When they look back at their photos I want them to remember not only what their family looked like but what their family felt like too!

I had such a wonderful time with this beautiful and sweet family. They sang, they danced, they laughed, they played and they loved.

If you’re interested in having your family captured in a way that you will cherish forever, get in touch! I’d love to chat with you about a session in and around your home :)

Oviedo Family Photographer | Lifestyle Session at Home

I started off this family session photographing this sweet pair of sisters.

Sometimes when I’m shooting children it helps to hang out with them for a little bit first. It gives them time to warm up and it allows some time for me to gain their trust. Getting to know the kids really helps their personalities shine through in the photos. It also gives Mom and Dad a few minutes to relax ;)

I love when I get to include furry family members. It’s a lot easier to include pets when we are shooting at home :)

Love when I can convince Mom and Dad to get in a few frames together <3

Orlando Documentary Session | Orlando Newborn Photographer

I photographed this family at their Orlando home while Mom was still pregnant with baby #2. Their documentary style session captured their life at home just before they became a family of 4. You can check out some highlights from that session here.

It’s always exciting (and an honor) to photograph a newborn but it’s especially exciting when you’ve already met and fallen in love with the family. Seriously, I loved photographing these guys. They are the sweetest.

We got to catching up and we had a wonderful laidback and casual documentary style session together. It’s freeing going into a session without any expectations.

I truly believe that these real life sessions at home are extra special. This family ended up relocating to Ohio and I am so glad that they captured sweet memories together in their Florida home. They will always have these photos of this special time to cherish and look back on. Real life, real smiles, real love.

Disney Family Photographer | Lifestyle Family Session

This family was visiting Orlando and planned their Lifestyle Session during their Walt Disney World vacation. We shot this session over at the Port Orleans Riverside Resort.

These kids were adorable inside and out - they were the sweetest little bunch.

Mom is a fellow photographer from Minnesota and our kids ending up having so much in common! I love meeting new people and by the end of a session I always feel like I’m photographing old friends :)

Orlando Family Photographer | Lifestyle Family Session

Having family photos taken can feel pretty stressful but I always try my very best to keep my families as relaxed as possible. The less worries and expectations that you have about how the session will go, the more enjoyable it will be. Easier said than done, I know! But really, let me do all of the hard work and just go with the flow! Families that don’t take things too seriously are the very best to photograph ;) Have fun with your spouse, let the kids enjoy themselves and let me take care of the rest.

Some more laughs and hugs - my favorite way to finish up a session!

I hope you enjoyed this peek into a fabulous lifestyle session. If you’re looking for a family photographer with a relaxed and casual approach, get in touch! Winter in Florida is the perfect time for an outdoor session :)

Winter Park Family Photographer | Mead Botanical Garden

This Sweet Mama was looking to capture some family photos and portraits of her son before his first big haircut.

Check out this little boy and his curls. So adorable. 

Like a lot of kids, this little boy was not into the idea of a photo session. In fact, before we got started he made sure to let me know that he hates having his picture taken...

Game on!

When this Mom filled out her client questionnaire she used the words, "playful, foul mouthed, loud and obnoxious" to describe her family. I almost died laughing! Clearly, they were going to be my kind of people!

This family let me do my thing and kept their cool even when this kiddo didn't want to participate. We played games, we ran around and we let him do his thing.

This little boy had one of the biggest imaginations EVER! So awesome!

Not bad for a kid that pretty much refused to have his photo taken ;)

And the grown ups -  well, they were beautiful inside and out and I had a wonderful time photographing them. I truly believe that the best photos are made when people are themselves and have trust in the process.

I shoot from my heart and when families go with the flow that's when the magic happens. It allows me to capture authentic portraits that are relaxed, honest and beautiful. 

If you're interested in a Family Session at home or on location, get in touch, I'd love to help you create beautiful memories for your family.
