mini session stories // sisters at the beach

I have found that one of the best ways to document real-life family moments is to create visual stories. Not just document literally what’s happening in front of me, but to hone in on a theme, or a story.

Whether the story is about two sisters at the beach, holding hands while they explore, or your family making bouquets of lavender at the farm, it is YOUR FAMILY living your life together. These are real moments that you share, making more candid, lifestyle photos for your family to cherish forever.

One of the stories I found while photographing this family at the beach was sand. Details of sand on your baby’s face, sand being thrown at your feet, shadows in the sand on a sunny, summer day. All of these small themes or microstories are like pages that add up to the chapter of your day, chapters that make up the story of your life.

I would love to meet your family at the beach. And find those little stories that fill the pages of the book that uniquely represents your life, your people.

Lifestyle and Documentary Family Mini Sessions

The best way for me to get those treasured real-life moments with your family is to have an activity planned.

If you have something special planned, like pick berries, build a sandcastle or pick out your Christmas tree, I’m able to document your experience hanging out as a family. Then something magical happens, you forget about the camera, and just focus on time with the people you love most.
