Everyday Life Memory Capture
love | family | home
There’s so much value in creating family heirloom photographs with a special purpose, truth, and artfulness that will one day spark that warm, emotional, comforting sense of nostalgia.
creative, Mindful, REAL
These days, our photos live on our cell phones, deep in the invisible land of the cloud, stuck within the abyss among thousands of other snapshots and data… and do we ever go back to relive these moments? I think it’s safe to say that we rarely ever do.
It’s time to go back to the way things used to be… Taking pictures of those regular, normal, real-life moments and producing preciously printed, tangible photographs to hold onto as an everlasting memory for the sake of the hearts within future generations.

If our values align, I’d love to talk more with you and see if we’d be a good fit to make some magic together. And if so, I encourage you to first think about some of those childhood memories that were casually caught on film (or the ones you wish that were).
We live in such a fast-paced world without a moment to spare, so let’s slow down, be present, and appreciate the irreplaceable gifts that make life meaningful.
What could that look like for you and your sweet family?

INVESTMENT
Clients spend an average of about $1,500.00 on sessions in total. Memory Sessions include our time together photographing and a private online gallery with all edited digital files included for open unlimited download. Up to about 50 images are delivered per hour of documenting. Artisan-quality prints, heirloom-inspired photobooks, and more are included in some of the options as well.
DATE RESERVATION
Availability is opened seasonally in 13-week increments. Sessions typically take place at any time of day on Thursdays. If you’d still like to work together and my listed availability doesn’t align with your schedule or event date, just shoot me an email and I’ll do my best to adjust things on my end. :)
SESSION PLANNING
Upon receiving your booking inquiry, a link will be sent to you with detailed pricing and date availability. From here, we’ll collaborate and brainstorm, curating the overall purpose and vibe of the shoot, and talk about all the important details, specific time of day, outfits, necessary preparations, etc.
SESSION LENGTH
Most sessions last about 2 hours but can last much longer, depending on the collection selected and the content/story we are telling. Once I feel like we’ve gotten what we’re going for, we’ll be free to wrap things up. :)
RECEIVING YOUR PHOTOGRAPHS
About 3 weeks after your session, your images will be finalized and delivered via online gallery link and/or tangible format. Depending on your chosen collection, an online gallery shop may be available to you for digital file download, further product design and print purchasing.
TRAVEL + LODGING
Travel time and expense reimbursement may apply, depending on your session location. A mileage charge of $2.00 per mile round trip will apply to session locations over 45 minutes or 50 miles (one way) outside of where I live in Hanover, Pennsylvania. Session destinations located 2+ hours away may require lodging reimbursement.
I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and take a peek into the window of your most precious real life moments, making art together out of the normal everyday that is anything but ‘average’. If you’d like that too, let’s chat. I’ll be thrilled to hear from you!
