Frequently Asked Questions:
Boulder Family Photography

  • I’m a Boulder-based family photographer specializing in lifestyle, documentary-style family sessions that focus on connection over stiff posing.

  • Most sessions take place in Boulder, Louisville, and nearby mountain locations with views of the flatirons.

  • My sessions are relaxed with a mix of poses and candid moments. I guide when needed, but I focus on real moments, movement, and interaction instead of everyone looking at the camera.

  • My Boulder family sessions start at $750 and include a guided session, styling help, and a curated gallery of finished images. More info on pricing can be found here.

  • That’s completely normal. I work with kids of all ages and build sessions around play and connection, not perfect behavior.
