Family Photography Sessions Include


Each family session includes a one-hour portrait experience designed for both immediate and extended families. Whether it’s just your crew or the whole family together, we’ll create something meaningful and beautiful.


For studio sessions, you’re welcome to bring two outfit changes so we can mix things up a bit. We’ll capture a blend of polished portraits and those more relaxed, snuggly, personality-filled moments that truly feel like your family.


During your session, I’ll guide you every step of the way so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands. My style blends softly posed portraits with natural, candid interactions. We’ll create a variety of groupings, including full family portraits, sibling shots, and sweet moments with mom and dad. Expect a little laughter, a little movement, and a lot of connection.


The initial fee is the session fee. Portrait collections and digital files are purchased separately, with collections beginning at $550. There’s no pressure to decide ahead of time. Once you see your finished images, you can choose the ones you absolutely love.

 

*Weekend bookings available upon request at an additional fee.

Family Photography FAQs


When should I book a family photoshoot in Corona?


As a family photographer for 20 years, I have to say I love all of the seasons. But my favorite seasons to shoot family portraits outdoors are Spring, Summer, and Fall. Winter family portrait sessions are best in the studio. If you plan to schedule a holiday family session, be sure to pre-book your photoshoot in September, as the busiest time for family portraits is October - December.


What do I need to prepare for my family photos in Corona?


Family portrait sessions last up to one hour and include several poses and arrangements for your family. As your family photographer, I know that variety is key. I’ll include several family poses, including sibling arrangements, mom and dad—couples-styled images, individual shots of the children, and posed and candid pictures of the family. Once your session has been secured, I'll send a questionnaire so that I can get started with planning your photos. The most important part of preparing for family photos will be shopping for comfortable and coordinating clothing for your family.


How much do family photos cost in Corona?


Quality professional photography is considered an investment in your family's art. I know that budget is an important factor when choosing a family photographer and I have a variety of packages to accommodate. Prices range depending on your photographic needs. Most clients invest between $750 and $2000 for their family portrait collection. We offer full-resolution digital files, heirloom-quality printed art pieces, and packages that combine digital and printed art.
