dear moms
a love letter from one mom to another
I know, it's a hard ask! You might be reading this while from the corner of the nursery carefully holding your breath so you don't wake them, or maybe you're reading this from the not-so-private bathroom with hands reaching under the door - I get it, because I've been there too!
The truth is, in the chaos of whatever season you may be in, the time seems to slip through our fingers all the same. Even as a photographer, I find myself pushing family photos off to another month when we are "less busy" - but that month never comes.
So let me hold your hand when I say this, we have to make the time. And I'm here to help you do just that, with the least amount of decision making and overwhelm as possible (a dream, I know right?)
do you have a minute?
the kj experience
what to expect
01
contact form
In order to serve you best, I ask that every potential client fill out a contact form. This helps me get in touch quickly, and discuss what an experience with me looks like. Your inquiry will be read and replied to within 48 hours.
02
discovery call
A 20 minute phone call where I give you the lowdown on what it's like to work with me and answer any questions you may have so you feel confident in your choice to book with me!
03
onboarding
Said yes after our chat? Within 24 hours, you'll receive your welcome email with access to your client portal. Think of this as your home base for all the things you need during our time working together! Your contract, invoices, guides, and galleries will all be here - along with all the info we talked about over the phone. Once I receive a signed contract, and your deposit - you're booked!

PLANNING YOUR SESSION
gallery reveal
This is where operation preparation begins! For my moms and families, this looks like planning every detail of your shoot to set you up for a stress-free, fun session.
Location, outfits, even treats for the kiddos after - you'll know exactly what to expect!
05
SHOOT DAY
The day has arrived, and now you can take a moment to pause and be PRESENT. This part should feel fun, easy, and relaxed for you - the only thing on your plate will be playing with and loving on those dearest to you.
My favorite part - gallery delivery! A slideshow of highlights will be sent to your email, and after feeling all the feels you'll be able to choose the delivery method that speaks best to you.
I offer digitals, prints, and albums - and help with the design and delivery process of each so yet again, the only decision you have to make is if you want it or not!

little moments with your babies
motherhood
Sessions designed by a mom, for moms. If juggling it all has you feeling worn down, and it feels like it has been forever since you've been able to just sit and be present - this session is for you.
Because they deserve photos with you in them too.
starting at $350
time to just be together
family sessions
It can be hard to spare some time to get the crew together for some photos, and maybe you haven't had the bandwidth in awhile to make that dream a reality - but you're only in this season for a little while.
And you will want to remember them, exactly like this.
starting at $500
do we have to purchase prints?
That choice is completely up to you, and you don't have to make that decision until after your photos are delivered!
After you receive your session slideshow, you will be able to choose between the just the digitals, prints, or an album. These are an additional cost and will vary by product.
A typical client investment is $875.
HOW MANY PHOTOS DO WE GET?
Your full gallery will usually amount to 30 images, though this will vary based on the amount of time we spent together and the size of your family.
5 digitals are always included with your session fee, and you have a full year from your session date to decide on any other digitals or products you may like!
Do you offer payment plans?
Absolutely! I believe every family should be able to afford photography! Your moments, milestones, and memories are too priceless and important to me - so I'm happy to work with you! I have several options available and am very flexible. Just ask!
how long will our session last?
Well, as we all know, we are never on our time but our kids' time! Because of this, I've learned to never double book a session day that way we can dedicate as much time as needed.
Whether you've got little ones who need to warm up to me, or older kids who are ready to get it over with - I've handled it all!
WHAT IS YOUR SHOOTING STYLE?
Lifestyle, as the name implies, means I shoot the real, authentic moments that make your family special and uniquely you. There's no heavy posing, your kids are allowed to be kids, and I will guide you through movements that feel natural so your photos truly look and feel like we just stepped into a moment of your life.
wHAT IS A SESSION FEE?
A session fee is the upfront price charged to complete your session - this includes all the planning, the shoot itself, and 5 digital images.
Session fees allow you to experience your session first and see a slideshow of all your photos before deciding if you want to invest in prints or an album.
