Baby’s first lavender.

Mini session stories.
This is how I photograph your family at my seasonal mini sessions. I look for small stories while I’m hanging out with you and your favorites. By illustrating a story through my photos, your prints, albums, and memories from the day will have a more cohesive aesthetic. This is a beautiful way to get more candid, real-life photos of your family, documenting what your life looks like RIGHT NOW in all its glory!
When I photograph a story, I focus on the details, the connections, and the portraits.
Details.
The way your new baby fits perfectly into the nook of your neck. That squishable, snuggly fresh baby that you get to watch live life before your very eyes.
Moments.
Your partner holding your new baby and staring, just staring, thinking of how perfect every little feature of your tiny human is.
Portraits.
You and your favorites, snuggling up close for a family picture in the majestic lavender field of blooms.
Creating a variety of images is like adjectives in a sentence. They narrate a day in your life and fill inform the viewer with details and context. They set the scene both aesthetically and functionally so that you feel like you are there again and again and again.
I would love to “write” the story of your family at the lavender farm this summer! Lavender Valley Farm is beautiful and owned by the warmest, most friendly people. And it is such a gorgeous, fragrant scene for your family pictures.
I can’t wait to see you this summer and photograph your sweet fam!
Love your photographer,
Anna
