Hey there, friend!

The “Home & Wild” Package

Why choose between the cozy comfort of your home and the wild freedom of the outdoors when you can have both? This is my signature package for families who understand that childhood happens everywhere—in your kitchen and at the park, during quiet mornings and golden hour adventures.

What to Expect

You’ll get the complete story of your family in this season. We’ll capture two entirely different sides of your life across two separate sessions scheduled 2-4 weeks apart.

Session One: Home Stories We’ll spend time in your home documenting the real, everyday magic. Breakfast making, book reading, fort building, or whatever feels most authentically you. This is where you’ll get the intimate, documentary-style moments that show what life actually looks like right now.

Session Two: Wild & Free Then we’ll head outdoors at golden hour. Your kids will run barefoot, explore, and play while I capture them in beautiful natural light. This session is all about movement, connection, and that carefree energy that only happens outside.

Together, these sessions tell your complete story—the quiet and the wild, the ordinary and the magical.

Perfect for

  • Families who want a comprehensive visual legacy of this chapter
  • Anyone who values both intimate moments and adventurous memories
  • Families with young children who want to document “right now” completely

preserve your memories

After your session

After your session, you’ll be invited to an ordering appointment—a relaxed, guided viewing where we’ll slow down and look through your images together. This is a recommended next step for families who want to preserve their memories in a more tangible way.

The ordering appointment isn’t about pressure or decisions on the spot. It’s a supportive space where I’ll help you choose what feels meaningful for your family. Many families find that seeing their images this way makes it easier to decide which moments they want to hold onto beyond their screen.

Answers

to your questions

I book 10-12 sessions per month to ensure each family receives my full attention. Book 6-8 weeks in advance for optimal scheduling, especially during fall.

I recommend spacing your sessions 2-4 weeks apart to capture variety in your family’s life.


Spring Package: Home session in April + Outdoor session in May
Summer Package: Indoor session in June + Beach session in July
Fall Package: Home session in September + Fall foliage session in October
Year-End Package: Indoor session in November + Holiday-themed outdoor session in December

Yes. I want this experience to be meaningful and accessible. Flexible payment options are available — just let me know what works best for you. Payment plans must be complete by the session date.

While technically possible, I don’t recommend it. Kids (and parents!) get tired, and we want everyone at their best for both sessions. The spacing also gives you two exciting events to look forward to!

Good news — they don’t have to! My sessions are built around real life, not perfection. I follow your family’s lead, gently guiding when needed, but mostly documenting your natural connection. Some of the most beautiful images come from the chaos.

Connecticut weather can be unpredictable! We’ll have a rain date built into your contract. If needed, we’ll reschedule the outdoor portion while keeping your home session as planned.

Absolutely! Many families invite grandparents to the home session or include the whole extended family in the outdoor shoot. Just let me know during our discovery call.

Nope! I’ll help you choose complementary but different looks for each session. The home session is more casual (think: jeans, cozy sweaters, flowy dresses), while the outdoor session can be slightly dressier if you prefer.

Yes! Some families book a spring home session and then do their outdoor session in fall. Just book early to secure both dates.

Absolutely include them! They’re part of your family story.

It’s a relaxed viewing session where we look through your images together, and I help you decide which moments you want to preserve beyond the screen. It’s completely optional, but most families find it helpful and meaningful.
