365 project...ellis is 6 months!

The second session of Ellis' 365 project was great! She and big brother are getting bigger, and it was nice to see this sweet family again. I can't wait to see them for our one year old session--it will be here before we know it!

The 365 project starts with a newborn session that includes the whole family. When your baby is around 5 months old I contact you to set up a 6 month old session, and then again for a 1st birthday session. The first year of your baby's life goes by so fast, and I help capture a few moments to remember forever. I also offer an heirloom linen album to tell the story of your baby's first year.

This is the type of photography that speaks to me. It is lifestyle photography--somewhere between portraiture and photo-journalism, and it feels authentic to me. I know what it is like to look at posed pictures of my babies vs. authentic amazing moment pictures of them, and the authentic pictures are meaningful to me. They remind me of details I had forgotten, and tiny voices that are gone. Authentic photographs take us back to a time and age that we thought we would never forget!

I do not put a time limit on family photo sessions--usually I let the kids decide when they are done with me, and this tends to be around one hour. Having an activity planned is a great way to make the session fun. This could be anything from a picnic, to drawing with sidewalk chalk to playing soccer. Whatever your family is into. When everyone is having fun we will get amazing, authentic photos!
