Stressed About Family Photo Outfits? I've got you, Mama!

Say goodbye to the closet meltdowns (been there, done that) and hello to timeless style with these tips I've put together:

1️⃣ TIME FLIES: As kids grow, so do our memories. So it's important to capture these fleeting moments in outfits that feel authentically YOU. Embrace the here and now!

2️⃣ CHERISH THE MAGIC: Every twirl, giggle, and cuddle deserves to be preserved. Opt for colors and textures that reflect your family's unique energy.

3️⃣ FAMILY FEELS: Comfort is key! Choose outfits that allow you to move, laugh, and play freely. It's all about capturing those genuine, candid moments.

4️⃣ YOUR THE STAR: You come first when it comes to choosing outfits. Pick what you want to wear, or any other fashionista ladies in your house, and build the outfits around that one.

5️⃣ COLOR COORDINATION: A hint of coordination goes a long way! Choose a color palette that complements each other without being too matchy-matchy. Think harmony, not uniformity! 🌈

6️⃣ CLIENT CLOSET: When in doubt, or just because, my client closet is a great place to find flattering, size inclusive dresses that will ALWAYS look good.

It's ok, if you're still not feeling 100% confident, don't worry Mama. I really do got you!

MAMA IS A STUNNER! ❤️‍🔥
TBH -- I squealed out loud when I saw this image.

Client closet dress: Cecilia in Cerulean

Neon Cowgirl -- but make it a senior sesh ❤️‍🔥

I mean seriously, this young lady was absolute fire for her senior session.

Hanging Rock State Park giving all magical vibes for this romantic elopement style couples session. 🫣😍

Take a peek at this adventure couple's sesh that was an absolute spicy dream.

The rain gave an extra moody vibe.

The couple was ALL IN, that water was extra chilly.

And the waterfall was gorgeous.

10/10 would recommend this waterfall for your next Maternity or Couple's sesh. 🤩

Pooches are always welcome 🐾

This wonderful family and their sweet pup were such a joy to photograph. Including their family dog was a sweet way to cherish him forever.

Please never hesitate to ask about including pets. 🙏

Some of my favorite images are ones just like these. 👆

Never be afraid to bring your personalities!

We all love pretty smiles for that perfect family photo...but goofy images are the ones that make us giggle 10 years later.

Took a bit of a social media hiatus to soothe the soul.

Now I'm back and I CANNOT WAIT to share some of the sessions that I've worked on since I logged off. 🫠

PS- I am now taking limited bookings for spring, message me for more details on dates.

So many congratulations to this beautiful mama on her sweet baby born at home 🫶

I will never forget this session. She was an absolute goddess, radiating such joy and peace.

She asked for natural, authentic, and creative images to always remember this motherhood journey.

This stunning mama wanted to remember every inch of her body exactly as it was we decided to keep it simple & raw -- completely n**e in nature.

This session will forever be in my heart! 🥰

It's more fun than any photoshoot you've done before.⁣
⁣
I do not like when my clients come to me 𝙎𝙏𝙍𝙀𝙎𝙎𝙀𝘿 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙃𝙀𝘾𝙆 𝙊𝙐𝙏 because they don't know what to wear - worried about their kids acting wild - or telling me the hubby is grumpy about photos.⁣
⁣
Because when you work with me, my entire goal is to keep it as stress free FOR YOU as possible. ⁣
⁣
I've got a whole slew of tools in my imaginary tool belt to deal with anything you can throw at me. ⁣

Loving all my families this fall season!

It's been an absolute whirlwind the last few months. But the thing keeping me going are ALL OF MY AMAZING CLIENTS!

This is my very first fall season as a professional photographer, and to have so many absolutely wonderful families trust me with the telling of their story has been unreal.

🫶 Thank you.

Right where she belongs. 👑⁣
What else can I say - other than she freaking nailed it!!⁣
⁣
Quick rundown of how booking this senior session went 👇⁣
⁣
▶️ I asked "What do you like to do for fun?"⁣
➡️ She replied "I like naps, karate and music." ⁣
⁣
⁣
(Feeling this already)⁣
⁣
⁣
▶️ I asked "What kind of music do you like?” ⁣
➡️ She replied "70's/80's rock and Chris Stapleton." ⁣
⁣
⁣
(SOLD. But I must keep it profesh.)⁣
⁣
⁣
▶️ I asked "What are you thinking about wearing?"⁣
➡️ She replied "White high heeled cowgirl boots." ⁣
⁣
⁣
(This girl is my spirit animal and I must book this session IMMEDIATELY!)⁣
⁣
Seriously though, couldn't have dreamed of better clients. 🙏⁣ We brainstormed ideas together but ultimately they trusted my vision AND IT WAS DREAMY.

I'm not going to lie to you, couple sessions are MY FAVORITE. ⁣
⁣
Don't get me wrong -- I love kids, and most of the time they love me (because I'm a giant child 🤣). ⁣
⁣
But there is something about two people that are completely connected, overflowing with passion, and living in that moment that really lights my soul on 🔥.⁣
⁣
I treat couple sessions like it's a date. And I'm just there as your guide.....and your paparazzi 🫣.⁣
⁣
You want to do a romantic picnic? Let's do it.⁣
⁣
You want a beach session? Here for it.⁣
⁣
Want to do an elopement but you've already been married for 10 years? Find a beautiful dress and let's adventure.⁣
⁣
I want to be your chaperone to a passionate experience you'll never forget. 😘⁣
⁣
xoxo, Steph⁣
⁣
⁣
⁣
PS- this session was absolute FIRE. They trusted me when they thought I was crazy, and it paid off baby! ⁣
⁣
PSS- you can find this dress in my client closet. Totally free to use, absolutely gorgeous, and can be worn by a Small-2XL 💃⁣
⁣
⁣

A fathers love needs to be remembered too. 😍⁣
⁣
I often focus on the Mama's, because Mama's are usually the ones taking photos of their daily life, and aren't actually in many of them.⁣
⁣
But -- capturing a fathers genuine love is so important to me as well. ⁣
⁣
A helpful tip to having Dads feeling their best for your photoshoot -- don't stress out!⁣
⁣
Yes, it can be kind of stressful getting everyone ready on time...but if you start to feel yourself on edge or start to pick fights with dad that's going to directly influence how he feels in front of the camera. ⁣
⁣
So stay relaxed, trust in me to deliver amazing images, and Dad will feel more comfortable to be himself. 🧡⁣
⁣
xoxo, Steph⁣

Like this cutie, I'm just popping out to say hi 👋⁣
⁣
I find myself not regularly posting because I'm busy with the most important part of my work -- your images -- and I'm verrrry okay with it.⁣
⁣
I spent the last few years growing social media followings for previous side gigs, and I've started to realize that when I'm busy or feeling burnt out -- social media is the first thing to go. ⁣
⁣
Particularly IG. It's filled with comparison and that immediately steals my joy.⁣
⁣
To be honest -- I'd rather spend my time & energy on my clients, or keeping my family & myself happy.⁣
⁣
So if you're wondering why not all my sessions are making it to IG - I'm just protecting my energy and my mindset from burnout.⁣
⁣
But I still love you! 🧡⁣
⁣
xoxo, Steph⁣
