Lifestyle vs. Holiday Sessions
What's the difference between a Lifestyle-Family Session and a Holiday-Session?
A Lifestyle-Family Session is 60-90 minutes and there is a lot more variety in the images. You get the looking at the camera shots AND the "in the moment" ones, too. The pictures tend to be more relaxed and spontaneous. We have time to try different things. We get all combination of the family together. You end up with enough pictures to fill an album or put up a beautiful wall art grouping.
A Holiday Session is about 20 minutes and we generally aim to get a few pics for your holiday card. The date is pre-set and I photograph several families on the same day. The session is quick and you generally get a few digitals included in the price, so you have the option to print your own holiday cards. These photo sessions are only offered a few times per year around the holidays.
So which one do you want this year?

60-90 Minutes
Is it time to capture your growing family? The family session is relaxed and fun. That's right, we have a ball! I talk to the kids, we goof around, I make everyone laugh. If you are looking for special wall art to put up in your house or an album that captures the essence of your family, this session is for you. You are the only family I'm photographing that day, so there is no time restriction, but it's generally about an hour. If there is a hiccup, which can happen with kids, then I stay until everyone is feeling good and I am sure we have everything captured. A few weeks after the photo shoot is the Viewing and Ordering Session where you come to my house to see all of the best images and decide what you want to order. The most popular items are the Leather Heirloom Albums and Wall Art (Canvas, Metal or Acrylic Fine Art).
The session price includes $1000 in credit for any product. This can include any of the specialty items that I offer: leather album, wall art, professional gift prints for friends and family, acrylic blocks and high-resolution digitals. Print packages start at $475 and product collections that start at $1550.
60+ minutes. The date and location are decided together.

Holiday sessions are offered on limited dates in November/December. They are 20-30 minutes long and we are mostly shooting for the holiday card. These are easy and fun photo sessions. You will get an online proofing gallery to choose your favorites. Five digitals and printing rights come with this session so you can design and order your own holiday cards if you want.
Are you busy and want me to do it all for you? I can design your holiday cards and send them directly to you. No stress. No hassle.
Want photo gifts? I have many beautiful specialty items: leather albums, wall art (metal or acrylic fine art & canvas), professional gift prints for friends and family and sleek and modern acrylic blocks.
Holiday sessions are stacked sessions where multiple families come one after the other. If you want a session on a special day, there is a $100 charge.
