FAQ


Most family sessions last about an hour, but timing is always adjusted to match the size of your family, ages of your children, and how much variety you want in your portraits. Larger or extended families may need a bit more time to ensure everyone is beautifully photographed together and individually.

Yes. The studio includes a curated selection of pieces for moms and girls, along with personalized styling guidance during your planning consultation. You’ll also receive a color palette guide and an Amazon shopping link to help coordinate effortless, cohesive outfits for the entire family.

Yes. Professional hair and makeup are included to ensure you feel camera-ready, confident, and relaxed. It’s one less thing to worry about on session day — you simply arrive and enjoy the experience.

All ages — from babies and toddlers to teens, parents, grandparents, and multigenerational groups. Whether your family is just beginning or beautifully grown, every stage is worth documenting.

Family sessions can be photographed in my Austin studio, outdoors in the Austin/Round Rock/Cedar Park/Georgetown area, or on private ranch property if your family owns land. Each setting offers something different — studio for polished, timeless portraits, and outdoors for movement, texture, and natural light.
This flexibility helps you get the exact style you’re envisioning from your Austin family photographer.

Most families book 3–4 weeks ahead so there’s enough time for planning, wardrobe coordination, and securing the perfect session date. Fall is the busiest season — September through December often books months in advance — so reserving early is always recommended.

Absolutely. Parents, grandparents, siblings, cousins — everyone is welcome. Extended family portraits are incredibly meaningful, and I’m experienced in posing larger groups in ways that feel natural, connected, and beautifully composed.

Yes — and I highly encourage it. Pets are an important part of the family, and whether we photograph indoors or outdoors, I’ll help guide posing and create images that feel genuine and joyful.

Yes. Every selected image receives expert retouching, including skin refinement, flyaway removal, cleanup of small distractions, wardrobe fixes, and gentle enhancement to ensure everyone looks their best. For children, I can composite multiple frames for the perfect grouping, especially when little ones are active and expressive.

You’re in great hands. My sessions are relaxed, playful, and designed to bring out real connection — even from the most reluctant participants. Families often tell me that the person who least wanted photos ends up having the most fun.
