One day, their tiny hands won’t fit in yours quite the same way. Their giggles will change, their favorite games will evolve, and their boundless wonder will shift with time.
Our Milestone sessions are all about preserving who they are right now—their personality, their spirit, their magic—so you can hold onto it forever.
Milestone sessions are simple and relaxed. Just a short pause to capture them in this very moment.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!! We very much look forward to working with Chrissy again in the future. We are so thrilled with how everything turned out and loved working with her!"
"Chrissy was also so patient with our two toddlers and really took the time to make sure she captured every shot. We couldn’t be more pleased with our photos and will return to her time and time again to capture our family."

For the in-between moments you’ll want to remember most.
I believe your images deserve more than just a screen—which is why clients who invest in artwork receive digital files at a reduced rate, or even complimentary. We have a beautifully curated selection of frames and albums to enjoy your moments everyday.

What to Expect from your session

How long until I get my photos?
What if I have no idea what to wear?
What if my kids won't cooperate?
How far in advance should I book?
I recommend reaching out at least 6–8 weeks before your ideal session date. For newborns, I love hearing from families in the first trimester — your spot can be tentatively held and confirmed once baby arrives.

Genuinely my favorite part of family sessions. Kids being kids — running, laughing, refusing to look at the camera — makes for the best images. I'm patient, I'm experienced, and I promise you'll love what we end up with.

That's exactly what the styling consultation and studio wardrobe are for. I'll help you figure it out. Most clients come in feeling unsure and leave feeling relieved. You don't need to have it all together before you reach out.
