fall mini sessions at the apple orchard // black and white

Support the farms. 

You will hear me say time and time again that one of the most important things to me about my mini sessions at the farms is that we show our appreciation by supporting these wonderful, family-owned businesses. They are the kindest people who allow us to come year after year for family pictures. I want to give them a HUGE thank you by picking apples, grabbing a yummy spiced cider, and eating fresh cinnamon donuts.

Swans Trail Farm is BEAUTIFUL. And they are wonderful people! I always encourage my families to support the farm while visiting.

Please plan to actually pick apples, not just pretend to pick. This will accomplish a few things. You will have more authentic, real photos rather than posed, awkward ones. Your family will have delicious apples to take home, decorate, bake into a pie, etc. And you will support two local, family-owned businesses in one day!

Love your photographer

One of my main objectives when selecting a location for my seasonal mini-session events is to prioritize farms that allow pets. Why?

Because pets are family too.

I love photographing kids in their natural element - doing their thing.

Among the seasonal mini sessions I offer, most are outside and many involve flowers. It’s always so fun to see kids get fully submerged in the nature around them, almost becoming one. Here are some photos of sisters doing just that.

Sibling love. I am here for it.

Photographing families is a pretty sweet gig. One of the things I enjoy the most is observing the connection between siblings.

Summer.

Ahhhh. That sweet aroma of fresh cut grass mixed with sunblock with a dash of sweat. Playing hard in the sun all the live long day.

I love photographing families being together during the summer.

Every time I photograph your family, I will look for details that help tell the story of your day. This helps tell a cohesive story of your time together as a family. Details are a great way to show those fleeting moments of childhood in, well, more detail.

From the messy topknot on your child’s head to the sand-covered hands burying her legs in seaweed, I want to document it all, so that you can relive those precious memories over and over for a lifetime.

When I photograph your family, I search for stories. I find them while I’m making beautiful photos of meaningful connection and love. It may be the way your child is attached to a favorite stuffy or the fact that your daughter loves to wear a princess dress while she looks for worms in the woods.

I would love to meet your family in your backyard. And find those little stories that fill the pages of the book that uniquely represents your life, your people.
