Lifestyle Portraits
Honestly, it has become a “buzz-word” among photographers, so really, it depends on who you ask, but I am a purist, & stay true to it’s traditional definition…
Lifestyle photography is capturing relationships, personalities & honest emotion. I accomplish this task by using a mixture of fun & relaxed posing techniques & candid in-between moments . If what you’re looking for is the more old-school ‘smile & say cheese’ perfectly-posed portraits, then I am most definitely *not* the photographer you want! Ha…
However, if images that make you feel something is more of what you’re after, then lets chat! I would love to hear more about you & what you’re hoping to document…
What in the world is ‘Lifestyle photography’ ?
Bellies, Babies & more…
The perfect mix of Lifestyle Portraits & unscripted Visual Storytelling. These multi-hour sessions seamlessly blend together: artistic candids, easy going guided-movement portraits, & highly-stylized Editorial shots, yielding a beautifully curated collection of cherished family heirlooms.
Typically executed within your home &/or a location of significance to you, these sessions are ideal for milestones like: Maternity, Newborn, Engagements, or even the ‘golden years of life’-stage with a loved-one or treasured family pet . Any & all things that are real & hold value for you. All those special moments & feelings, which are so fleeting in life, will be archived to print with skillful artistry & sensitivity. These are your memories. Your connections, emotions & personalities, to be honored & preserved forever.
Real is more interesting than ‘perfect’, & All real life is welcome!
Visual Storytelling
Documentary Style: The artistic visual-telling of a story. YOUR story! Whatever that may look like…
This process is basically: me, dropping into your life as a silent(-ish) observer // virtual fly-on-the-wall, at a time in your life you want to remember. I will be there with you, capturing it all from beginning to end, in a series of images that will then be artistically edited into a perfectly curated storyline. From the tiniest of details, to the over-all significance of the occasion, you will receive a final selection of images that will *truly* matter to you for decades to come.
It could be a milestone, like the welcoming of a new life, a sweet 16/Quinceañera, or just an average Sunday afternoon. Your family's life is filled with moments and connections worth photographing – & worth holding onto.
