A moment that's going to be a memory– and you need to invest in it

Our family sessions are built around simple prompts, running, jumping, laughing, hugging, the occasional tickle, that bring out how your family actually moves together, set against the beauty of Southern California. We capture the classic shots everyone expects, looking at the camera together, alongside the quieter, unscripted moments in between.

Dan and Tyler were amazing to work with!

They photographed our extended family (14 people!) and made everyone feel so comfortable and at ease, AND managed to capture beautiful photographs. From inquiring to book them through receiving the gallery- everything was so seamless and easy. We will absolutely be asking them to photograph our family again in the future!

Maternity sessions are photographed at a location of your choice (location guide provided). We recommend maternity photo sessions 4-8 weeks before your due date, in the 32-36 week mark. This is the period where your belly is at it's roundest which is perfect for photos!

Newborn sessions take place in your home before your baby is 13 days old. We photograph you and the rest of your family around your home in a lifestyle approach as well as focusing on your newborn by themself. We include swaddles and blankets for styling.

For multi generation families with lots of small kids, our extended session is a perfect choice. These include a family shot list at select locations and up to two hours of shooting. We will capture the entire extended family, each individual family, and all the combinations in between.

This can be added onto any photo session to capture every moment in motion. Videos are about 2-3 minutes long and set to music. This is a perfect way to thoroughly remember your family's mannerisms and real laughs in a way photo alone can not capture.

– questions and answers

Frequently asked

How do I budget for a family portrait session?

Family session pricing typically covers the photographer's time, editing, and either a set number of finished images or a full gallery, so cost usually scales with session length and deliverables rather than being a flat industry rate. When budgeting, think about how you'll use the images: a few framed prints call for a smaller collection, like a mini session, while an heirloom album or wall gallery calls for more coverage. It's worth confirming what's included versus offered as an add-on before comparing prices across studios.

How should I prepare for a family photo session?

Most family session guidance comes down to two things: what to wear and how to keep the session unhurried. Choose clothing in complementary tones rather than exact matches, and pick a location that feels like you, whether that's home, a favorite park, or the beach at golden hour. Feed children beforehand and build in extra time, since the best family images often happen in the unposed moments between the posed ones; a short conversation with your photographer beforehand about your family's personality goes a long way.

How do I choose a maternity photography package?

Maternity package decisions generally come down to timing and setting. Most families photograph between 28 and 34 weeks, when the bump is well defined but movement is still comfortable. From there, decide between studio portraits, an outdoor session, or images at home, and whether spouses or siblings will be included, since that shapes the length of the session and which collection fits. You can see recent maternity sessions at Oso Park, Upper Newport Back Bay, and Crystal Cove.

What should I expect from a newborn photography session?

Newborn sessions are unhurried by design across most studios, often two to three hours to allow time for feeding, soothing, and settling between setups. They're usually scheduled within the first two weeks, when babies sleep more deeply and curl naturally into the poses that become keepsakes. A calm, quiet studio and a photographer experienced in newborn safety make the difference between a rushed session and a memorable one.

Do you photograph families throughout Orange County?

Most people searching for a family photographer start with location, wanting someone who already knows the best nearby spots for light, shade, and privacy at that specific park or beach. We photograph families throughout Orange County and the surrounding areas, including Crystal Cove, Irvine Regional, Balboa Island, and Turtle Rock, and we're just as glad to shoot somewhere personal to your family, whether that's a neighborhood park or your own backyard.
