If you're the one who plans the birthdays, packs the bag, and remembers the sunscreen, you’re probably also the one behind the camera, not IN the pictures.
Which means that your family has a beautiful record of growing up…and little proof you were there for it.
Your kids deserve photos of you! Not the version of you that finally feels ready, but the one you are right now, in the middle of loving them.
A full family photography session where I guide you through the whole thing! Most people feel a little awkward in front of a camera, so I’ll help you relax and feel comfortable (and figure out what to do with your hands!). With kids, I run the session more like play than a photoshoot, which means they have fun and you get photos with lots of real smiles.
$400
I’ll plan your session around your family’s personality and what you want to remember most. I may guide you through a few relaxed poses, but there’s no rigid script.
I've photographed children at every age (and in every mood). I keep the session moving like play, so your kids have fun and forget the camera is there!
Many come back through the engagement, the wedding, the first baby, the kid who's suddenly a senior.
“Kim is an amazing photographer and so awesome with kiddos. I have been fortunate enough to have Kim take our wedding pictures 13 years ago and then our growing family pictures over the last 11 years and 3 kids.”
“Kim’s way with kids and patience definitely set her apart as one of the best!”

About two months out for fall and pre-holiday sessions, which are my busiest by far. That said, reach out anytime! I often have last-minute availability, especially on weekdays.
Half holds your date, half is due on the day of your session. I use an online payment portal and accept most major credit and debit cards.
It depends a little on where we shoot, so I put together a post with general tips to help you decide. Once you book, we can talk through specifics for your location.
Within one to two weeks. During peak fall and pre-holiday season, it can stretch to three.
Let's talk before your session! I want to hear about your kids and anything that helps me create a good experience for everyone. I run sessions as family play, guiding and directing just enough to keep things moving. We'll pick a time of day when your kids are at their best and choose a location with fewer distractions and fewer meltdown triggers.
