Richmond family photographer
Family
As a family photographer in Richmond Virginia and a mom to a redheaded little boy, I know all to well the anxiety of taking family photos. This is why I take pride in providing a laidback portrait experience for you and your family.
My approach is to allow your children to lead our session (or sometimes the husband) and to guide you with what I like to call playful posing. If your children want to explore, we will explore. If your kiddos want to be cuddled, then we will cuddle. It's all about them while getting photos you will love!
