Life with kids moves fast. One day you’re chasing tiny hands through piles of leaves, the next you’re unwrapping holiday lights together. Honestly? One day, you’re going to miss this chaos — the laughter, the mess, the little moments that feel ordinary now but are the ones you’ll treasure forever.


That’s why I’m so excited to do The Family Collective, a series of special mini photo sessions designed to capture the real-life, messy, beautiful moments of your family.


🍁 October – Fall Edition

  • Redmond leaves & Snoqualmie mountains

  • Outdoors, golden leaves, cozy sweaters, crisp autumn air

  • 4–6 families, 1 hour total, 10-15 minutes, each getting 10–20 images

  • Fun, relaxed, playful moments — capturing the joy of fall


❄️ November – Holiday Edition

  • Auburn Studio & Maple Valley Glasshouse

  • Festive lights, cozy backdrops, and all the holiday vibes

  • Plus I'm bringing my snow machine, weather-permitting

  • 4–5 families per session, 1 hour total, 10-12 minutes, each getting 10–20 images

  • Perfect for capturing the season’s excitement and warmth


Imagine this location....but with fall colors.

Why Families (Including Yours) Will Love The Collective

  • Your family’s spotlight: Each family gets 10–15 minutes dedicated just to them.

  • Full gallery for everyone: Enough images to print, share, and look back on for years.

  • Kids actually enjoy it: Other kids around means more laughs, more energy, more natural smiles.

  • Invite friends, share the fun: More families = more laughter and magic captured.

How It Works

  • Let me know the date you're interested in.

  • Gather together 3-5 other families.

  • Up to $490 savings on your next family photoshoot in 2026.

  • I'll bring snacks for the kids ;)


Pricing:

  • $350 per family → Includes 10-15 minutes of your family’s spotlight time and 10 images.

  • Option to upgrade to the full gallery (normally $550) — but here’s the fun part:

    • Invite friends and unlock savings for everyone with The Family Collective!

    • Every family pays the base price of $350 and shares the hour of time.

    • 4 families → $100 upgrade to full gallery ($100 savings) + 1 matted print

    • 5 families → $50 upgrade to full gallery ($150 savings) + 25 holiday cards

    • 6 families → Full gallery included - no upgrade needed! ($200 savings) + 1 matted print, 25 holiday cards


This means the more families you bring together, the more value everyone gets. Everyone wins: more photos, lower cost, and a fun shared experience.
