Session Information
The days are long but the years are short.
It’s a parenting quote but it’s really true for all aspects of life. We’re so busy living that every day life that we lose track of time and before we realize it, another year has passed. Let me help you freeze time and celebrate the now. No matter what stage you are in- newly engaged, expecting a new arrival, or sending your kid off to college- your family and love deserves to be celebrated.
What You Can Expect
Premium Session
I want to get to know you so I can tell your story in a fun, authentic way. We can meet in the studio or chat over Zoom to plan the perfect session. We’ll talk about your family, how you met your spouse, what makes your kids laugh, and whether you want to bring your dog. We’ll plan the session including finding the right location, what to wear, and how you envision the photos in your home. Do you want a wall gallery over the couch or would you prefer an album?
Clients love working with me because I offer fun, laid-back photo sessions. I’ll help you pose so you look your best and don’t have that awkward ‘what do I do with my hands?!?!’ moment. Between each picture-perfect pose, I’ll capture the heartwarming moments that make your heart skip a beat. By mixing posed and candid photos, we’ll tell your story in a way that will make a great wall gallery or album.
My studio is located in downtown Mebane. With a custom session, you have free choice of all of our solid or patterned backdrops and we can change backdrops.
Looking for an outdoor portrait? I love locations with sentimental value but I have some great spots on standby in Durham, Burlington, Hillsborough, and more. During the consultation, I’ll find out if you’re a strolling downtown, frolicking in the field, or a relaxing by the riverside kind of family.
Because I love what I do, I don’t time outdoor sessions. Sessions usually end when the kids are over it or we’re out of light. There’s no limit on wardrobe changes either so if you want to put on a full fashion show- let’s do it!
During the session, I’m going to take a ton of photos but I do the hard part of narrowing them down to only the best, usually 30-40.
Within 4 days, we’ll meet in-person or over Zoom and we’ll go through the photos together, picking out your favorites, and deciding how they’ll fit in your home. My ordering process makes it easy and there’s no slimy sales tactics ever. In fact, I always tell clients that if they hesitate on a photo, it means they don’t love it and I only want them to buy the photos that truly speak to their heart.
Each image you purchase is retouched to perfection. Stray hairs, blemishes, those bruises and bug bites that kids get the day before picture day- POOF! Gone! I’ll even do a little digital nip/tuck or wrinkle removal if you want me to but I’m a big fan of keeping subtle and making sure you still look like you.
There’s a $250 session fee to hold your session date. Session fee is 100% happiness guaranteed. If you don’t love your photos, I’ll reshoot or refund.
You’ll be able to choose from wall art and albums. Every print includes the matching digital copy to share on social media and to archive as back up. Most clients spent $750-1000 for printed products and digital copies.

Looking for an outdoor portrait? I have a field located behind my studio that gets gorgeous evening lighting!
Standard sessions are about working quickly to capture poses and expressions that tell your story before the kids are bored. Most sessions are 30-45 minutes.
The sessions are perfect for busy families or kids with short attention spans.

Committed to Preserving Your Memories
Your portraits were made to be seen, to hold a place on honor in your home, to be shared with your family- not just shared on social media. That’s why we focus on offering a selection of classic portrait items- wall prints, gallery wrapped canvas, and hardbound albums. After over a decade in business, we know life gets busy and printing digital copies gets put on the to-do list. We’ve had clients contact us that they lost the digital copies before they ever got around to printing. So we do all of the printing for you, delivering beautiful finished artwork right to your door.
But I know the importance of digital copies, the joy of sharing these moments with our friend’s on social media, and the safekeeping of our memories if something was to happen to our prints. That’s why I gift a digital copy of each print purchased.
Let’s create something awesome together. Fill out the form below and I’ll be in touch to schedule your free consultation.
