September through November is the busiest time in a family photographer’s schedule! By having your portraits done in June, not only do you not have to worry about getting on your favorite photographer’s schedule, but you have one less thing to worry about during the Christmas rush! Your family portraits are done and Christmas cards are a breeze! Either plug them into a template at your preferred card printer, or leave it up to your photographer to design and print them for you. Either way, it’s one less thing to worry about getting done during that busy season.

Are you excited to work with an Austin photographer to document precious moments with your family forever? One of the most common questions I receive is “how does this all work” and “what is involved in planning a family photo session; I feel overwhelmed!” Below I have broken down the process into six easy steps.

As an Austin, TX lifestyle photographer, heartfelt reviews like this one mean so much! Being there to photograph a family through the important moments, both beautiful and difficult, of their family journey, is an incredible honor. This sweet family got in touch with me after the birth of their firstborn, a tiny little boy with big, blue eyes and a sweet nature! I was asked to take his newborn portraits because they appreciated the documentary approach I have in photographing children and families that result in very natural, organic feeling portraits.
