Every family has its own weird little traditions, inside jokes, and that beautiful kind of chaos that makes you laugh (or sigh) at the end of the day. That's the stuff we actually want to capture—the real you, not the perfect posed version.
Whether you feel like cozy, classic portraits in our Downtown Rochester studio or laid-back, candid shots at nearby spots like Rochester Municipal Park (so easy to access) or Stony Creek Metropark (those trails and light are magic), we make the whole thing relaxed from the first chat to the last click.
What keeps it easy and fun? We include professional hair & makeup so everyone looks fresh without the morning scramble, no rushing the clock (we work around naps, snacks, wiggly toddlers—whatever), outfit help so you don't stress over what to wear, and even in-home sessions if that's better for your crew (pajamas and couch cuddles? Yes, please). We'll gently guide poses when needed, but mostly just let you be yourselves—hugs, giggles, silly faces and all.
Mom, especially you—this one's for you. Stop overthinking it. We've got the details covered so you can actually be in the moment, soaking up the hugs and chaos with your people instead of worrying about the camera.
These moments fly by way too fast. Let's freeze the good stuff in photos you'll love looking back on—real connection, real love, real family.
We keep sessions limited each month to give every family our full attention. Ready to make it happen? We'd love to chat and get you on the calendar!
Every wall art piece includes master retouching, professional installation, and a limited lifetime warranty—for your peace of mind.
Your curated collection is professionally prepared and delivered within 7–10 business days, ready to be enjoyed in your home.
An intimate viewing experience where we unveil your gallery and guide you through selecting artwork designed to become lasting heirlooms.

Arrive camera-ready with complimentary professional hair and makeup artistry, so you feel confident, polished, and fully taken care of.

We recommend booking your family session at least 2–3 months in advance to secure your preferred date, especially during peak seasons. Early booking allows us ample time to plan and customize your session to reflect your family's unique dynamics.
Family sessions typically last between 2 to 4 hours. This timeframe allows for a variety of poses and candid moments, ensuring a diverse and comprehensive gallery of images that showcase your family's unique bond.
We understand that weather can be unpredictable. If conditions are unfavorable, we'll work with you to reschedule the session to ensure the best possible experience and outcomes.
Michigan's distinct seasons each offer stunning backdrops for family portraits, but the golden window is late September through mid-October when fall foliage peaks and temperatures remain comfortable. Spring's second-best season arrives in late May through early June, when apple blossoms and wildflowers bloom without the harsh midday sun of summer.
