It's all about the Mom's this week! Being a mother is one of the greatest joys but hardest job. The dichotomy of the highs and lows can sometimes be enough to break us. ⁠

How Much Does Fine Art School Photography Cost?⁠

How Much Does Fine Art School Photography Cost?⁠
⁠
Surprisingly the cost is around the same as using the big box companies. There is absolutely no charge to the school. The cost of the prints and digital files are roughly the same but the quality of the photos is so much better. ⁠
⁠
For a list of print and digital prices please don’t hesitate to contact me!⁠

Capturing kids' unique personalities is so fun! This little girl obviously loves her guitar, she was so careful bringing it out to the shoot. ⁠

Are Sibling Photos Offered in Fine Art School Photography?⁠
⁠
Absolutely, I love taking photos of siblings! A custom schedule will be made with your school to make sure parents who want sibling photos can be accommodated.⁠

This is the most important piece of advice I give

This is the most important piece of advice I give to all families. The family photo session isn’t just for getting that perfect Christmas card pic. Take the time to just enjoy hanging out with each other. The photos you get will be so much better and remind you of taking the hour out to just be with and have fun with each other!⁠

A happy family will make great photos. One key to that is making sure everyone has been fed (We don’t want hangry kids!). The other key is to make sure everyone is rested. If you still have toddlers (or even teenagers) that need naps, try not to overschedule your portrait session day to avoid skipping naps. ⁠

There is no such thing as too dressy for your photo session. Dressy photos always stand out and you will never be disappointed that you took the time to dress up for your portrait session. But if you are a more casual family do what makes you feel comfortable. The only caution is to avoid being “matchy-matchy”, such as the whole family where’s the same patterned shirt and jeans. Also, pick 2 – 3 coordinating colors instead of having everyone wear the same color. This will create contrast and depth in your photos allowing you and your family to shine, not your clothes!⁠

What is Fine Art School Photography?⁠
⁠
It is a personalized boutique-style school picture day experience. I will work with you to find the perfect location inside or outside your school. I provide communication that you can forward to your parents to help them prepare their children and know what to expect on picture day. On the day of the photoshoot, I have fun with the kids so that parents get photos that truly capture their kids’ personalities. The shooting process is organized, efficient, and most of all fun for both the teachers and kids. ⁠
⁠
Want this kind of experience for your kids pre-school?⁠
⁠
Let me know and I can reach out to your pre-school!⁠

Ah, the week of love!!! Some of us love it and some of us think it is silly. It's okay as long as we remember that love is what sustains us. ⁠
⁠
So when is the last time you had photos taken with your love? Was it your wedding? I bet it was pretty close! There is nothing wrong with asking your photographer to get a photo of just the two of you. It will remind you of your love and also be cherished by your family.⁠

A love connection. Siblings can be so fickle with each other but when you listen in the quiet moments they are also incredibly tender with each other. ⁠

This tender moment was captured during my fall school portrait sessions. I am planning spring school portrait sessions for March. If you are interested, comment on this post and I will get you the details!⁠
