What to expect
A family photoshoot is an EXPERIENCE...
… an experience where you get to enjoy your family in a whole new way. Most families see a photoshoot as something to “get through”, because they can’t imagine their children cooperating.
I want you to start thinking about Photoshoot day in an entirely different light.
I don’t do cheese, and I take pictures of parents holding each other tight while their children play beside them. At the end of the day, your children will ask: “Is Nicole going to play with us tomorrow?”.
I’m a bit silly, a whole lot of fun, and the point is for your to join along. Why? Because what you will see in the final images is the energy you bring, and it’s my job to create the best possible environment for you to express yourself, and to capture how unique and fabulous your family is.
All this to say… be prepared for me to make you laugh, and make a fool of myself. Trust me to capture your beautiful, tender souls, because you are MUCH MORE than faces in a frame. To me, any way.
Session Investment at the bottom of the page 🙂
First we connect...
You LOVE what you see on my website & you've browsed the blog & the pricing section.
When you send me a message, be sure to to include the type of session you want.
We'll schedule a quick chat over the phone and go over what you can expect. If you wish to move forward we'll choose a date - ideally for a late afternoon session before sunset (warm, soft, even light).
Select the location
You'll want to choose a location that reflects who you are as a family. I’ll work with you to determine the best location for you! You guessed it, the beach is my personal favorite!
If it rains, we will simply reschedule the session (at no extra charge).
Get ready for your Photo Session
Your booking has been confirmed.
A couple of weeks before your session you'll receive a Questionnaire that will help give me more insight into who you are as a family, how you move and interact. I will plan a timeline based on your answers, and the activities you choose.
I follow up by email or text, offer advice and answer questions as we get closer to our session date.
It's starting to get exciting!
Photo Session Day!
By now you know what to expect and there's nothing more for you to do but...
RELAX, PLAY ALONG, HAVE FUN!
I won't ever ask your children to smile, and we'll be very active so you won't have time to think "What do I do?". If there are pauses, interact with each other and pretend I'm not there - that's usually when we get our best shots!
Keep an eye out for your sneak peek
After the session I carefully select and edit the very best images. This takes up to 3 weeks.
During this process, my early favorites will be posted as “sneak peeks” on Facebook & instagram – make sure you follow me on both so you don’t miss these. And share!
Your Digital Package
Your digital package comes all wrapped up in a personal online gallery. From there you can download, share and favorite your images.
The only thing missing is the silk bow...
Prints & Products
I offer gorgeous high quality products such as heirloom albums, Wall Art, and Fine Art Prints.
Let me create beautiful heirlooms that you will keep for generations...
