Families & Kids

Every family I work with gets personalized attention to what their hopes and requests are for the session. Whether that is a generational session with grandparents and everyone else, or a young family with a toddler at your favorite park, I’m happy to meet you where you are in life, and work with you to create portraits that will be appreciated for years to come. I am also happy to offer tips on outfit planning, location ideas, and trusted print fulfillment resources.

Sessions like this often last around 1 hour and usually do not involve outfit changes. I am willing to travel most places within 25 miles from my hometown of Hudsonville. Locations further away are subject to a small additional fee.
