a session with me

A session with me is relaxed ,laid-back, and fun. You don't have to worry about a thing because I have a bag full of tricks that will make it enjoyable for everyone! Your little ones can play freely (though maybe not in the mud!) and your family can enjoy time together as I capture beautiful moments for you. At the end, you’ll receive a full gallery with a healthy mix of candid and traditional photos you’ll cherish for years to come.

She posed my daughter effortlessly and captured a stunning portrait collection for us! Most importantly, my teenage daughter LOVED her portraits!!!

I’m from NC, so planning a photo shoot out of town can be a bit stressful. Immediately after reaching out to Jessica, she was engaged and offered helpful tips and information. We were working around a limited timeframe for photos and had some weather worries, but Jessica worked around all of those issues and the session worked out seamlessly. She was friendly and professional, gave great input and suggestions, and very responsive throughout the entire process with communication.

family Portraits FAQ

What if my kids don’t cooperate?

I’ve never met a toddler (or teen) that doesn’t have fun in front of my camera! I have over a decade of experience photographing children of all ages and over two decades working with children. II have found various ways to get them relaxed and comfortable enough so that we have the best time. The key is to let them be who they are and not expect a pose! My style is less posing and more in the moment. So you can be sure that everyone (including dad) will have a blast and forget the camera is even there.

Do you offer payment plans?

Of course! As someone who likes to budget, I know how important it is to save for what we truly want to invest in. Therefore, I offer various payment options that will help you pay your investment over time.

What do I wear?

I will provide you with a style guide that will answer this question for you! Not only will it give you ideas on the outfits to wear, but also what to bring along with you to make your outfits pop. And while you’re shopping for outfits, I am happy to make suggestions and give you ideas. I’m just a text away!

Which locations can I choose from?

Since I’ve been doing this for over a decade, I know quite a lot of places for you to choose from. It may seem overwhelming, however, I will suggest various locations based on the time of year, your vision, your style, and distance. Together we will choose the perfect spot for your photos.

What is the session timeline?

Fill out the inquiry form and check your email for a reply within 24 hours (a little longer on weekends).

Choose a date for the session.

Prep Time: I will send you a welcome guide with all the details about the family experience and a style guide to help you find the perfect outfits. Remember, I’m only a text away as you shop for what you will wear.

Session Day: The fun begins! We will meet at our location spot and start capturing some pretty cool moments. You don’t have to do anything… I will make sure to orchestrate the whole thing so that even you have fun!

Online Gallery Delivery: You will receive a link to your final online gallery to view in the comfort of your own home and on your own time. There is no need to come in and view your final images when I know life can get busy. This will hit your inbox 2-3 weeks after your session date.

Order & Design: This is where you decide on the collection that works best for you. Once you choose a collection, I will begin designing your goodies and ordering any prints/products that are included in the collection. Remember that you can add any extras to any collection. We will be in touch throughout the whole process.

Delivery of your files & products: I will hand deliver your collection as soon as it arrives. No need to pay for shipping (unless you live outside of the San Antonio area). Your digital files will be sent to you as soon as you purchase your collection… which means you can share your beautiful pictures right away. You will also receive a link to your very own mobile app to make downloading and sharing of your images a piece of cake!
