Family Gallery
FAMILY SESSIONS
Family sessions are done on location and in my home studio where I have a selection of solid color backdrops and an outdoor area with pine trees and fall color.
Outdoor sessions are best scheduled about an hour before sunset. If that time isn’t a good option, I recommend scheduling in the morning.
Locations further than 30 minutes from Ham Lake are an additional fee, dependent on distance.
All packages come with retouched, high resolution JPG files that can be printed anywhere. I also offer prints at an additional cost. (Pricing upon request)
After your session, you will be sent an online proof gallery with unedited, watermarked images. After choosing your favorites, your final images will be edited and sent to you in a downloadable gallery.
Some of my favorite locations…
Downtown Anoka
