Family + Newborn Photography

Honest, can’t-wait-to-print photos of your everyday life for laidback families.

Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan

A relaxed photo experience

Family and newborn photography sessions are held in your home, backyard, or special spot for your family. You can relax and be yourself. Dress how you want. Your kids can feel free to be themselves; yes—wild or shy—themselves.

Instead of posed, smiling portraits, documentary photo sessions capture your family's personality and quirks, the stuff that makes you, you.

And you’ll end up with a collection of images that tell a bit of your story.

“My favorite part is reliving it in my head!”

I can’t get over how great these came out. But my favorite part is reliving it in my head. I’ve never been so comfortable. I’m always apologizing for us...but you made this so seamless and so much fun.
