Maternity sessions include your partner and any siblings and are a mix of family photos and maternity portraits all rolled into one. Mom can also have one outfit change for additional maternity photos on her own.

Laid-back, unposed but gently guided photos of your family at home with its newest member. We’ll also document baby on their own and all those brand-new details - tiny toes, hands, faces, and everything you’ll want to remember.

And no, you don’t need a fancy or perfectly styled home! Most homes work just fine. Not sure about yours? Send me a message and we can chat about it.

Still not sold on an in-home session? Studio space can be reserved for your session for an additional rental fee, based on the studio you choose.

totally get wanting to shoot earlier in the day! if you’re hoping for that soft, dreamy golden hour look you see in my portfolio, that usually happens about an hour before sunset.

but if you’re not tied to that look and just want real, honest photos, i’m all for a morning or mid-day session too. just know the light will be a little brighter and the vibe a little different.
just let me know what you’re envisioning, and we’ll make it work!

wear what feels like you. if you’ve got a style you love or a vibe you’re going for - send it my way and let’s roll with it. dress in what's you or go for trendy! it’s about capturing you as you are. cozy, dressy, laid-back, bold - whatever feels good, that’s what photographs best. my styling guide can help narrow this down for you.

if your kids are feral, perfect - we’re halfway there.
i don’t expect stillness or forced smiles. i guide with play and prompts, read the room (aka your kids), and adjust as we go. the goal isn’t control - it’s connection. and trust me, the magic always shows up.  lets chat more about this together.

you’re booked - yay! now it’s time for the fun part.
a month before: the family questionnaire. it’s short and chill, but gives me all the good stuff - what your hopes are, what makes your kids laugh, and the little details that help me photograph your fam in a way that feels like you. next, you’ll get my styling prep guide. no stress, no rules - just real tips, outfit ideas, and inspo to help you feel confident (and not panic-scroll the night before). if you’ve got a specific look or vibe you love, send it my way. i’m all in on making this feel like you.

current gallery delivery turnaround times are - 14 days for maternity + family sessions and 10 days for newborns. subject to change.

however, in your contract it says 30 days just to give me a little breathing room in case life throws something unexpected this way - my personal goal is always to get your photos to you way sooner than that.

Crystal is absolutely amazing at what she does, as a photographer and a human she is incredible inside and out. She is excellent with kids and has incredible patience. She has photographed all 3 of my children and I will cherish these photos forever.
