THE CLASSIC
childhood PORTRAIT
SESSION
Book a relaxed one to two-hour childhood portrait session in a setting where your child feels comfortable and at ease—whether that's at home, a favorite outdoor spot, or a meaningful location that helps capture their genuine personality and authentic smiles.
A special opportunity to capture your child's unique personality and spontaneous moments in a relaxed and natural setting.
It’s completely normal to feel a bit unsure about what to expect from a childhood portrait session. But don’t worry — I’ll guide you through the entire process to ensure you feel relaxed, confident, and have a great time capturing your child's personality.
Leading up to the session, I’m just a call or message away if you have any questions, and I’ll send helpful tips on what to wear and how to prepare, so you can focus on enjoying the experience and creating beautiful, natural portraits.
What happens at a photoshoot?
Childhood portrait sessions should be fun and relaxed, not stressful. The best photos happen when your child feels comfortable and happy, so I aim to create an easygoing, enjoyable experience for everyone.
Before the shoot, we’ll discuss outfit ideas and choose locations where your child feels at ease.
It’s normal for kids to need a little time to warm up—initial shots help them get comfortable in front of the camera, and as the session progresses, they’ll naturally relax and be themselves.
Lasting about up to 2 hours, the session includes moving between different spots within the location for a variety of beautiful shots. I prefer a documentary approach, capturing real, candid moments rather than stiff poses, so most of the best images come when your child is simply enjoying themselves and unaware of the camera.
My goal is to make the experience enjoyable and authentic, so you end up with genuine portraits that truly reflect your child's personality.
Honest and joyful expressions
Booking a childhood photo session is simple and flexible.
Step One: Reserve Your Session
To book your session, a session fee is required. This fee saves your spot on my calendar and includes a friendly pre-session chat, helpful prep emails, and phone support to make sure you're all set for the big day. This fee doesn’t include any photos—those come later once you’ve had a chance to see your beautiful images.
Step Two: Pick Your Favorites
After your session, you’ll get to see your photos and decide how you’d like to enjoy them. You can choose from a selection of individual prints and digital images.
