Family Portrait Session

Family portraits are a important record of the passing years as your family changes and grows. It may not be everyone's favorite activity but I try to make it a fun and enjoyable time.
Clothing suggestions: Unless you are a stick -- stay away from horizontal stripes and choose some outfits with long sleeves. It's a good idea to have at least one long-sleeve outfit, even if it's summer time. Sleeveless shirts or sundresses are okay for some photos, but generally, you may not be as pleased with the results in some poses. Bare arms tend to make you look heavier.

Colors: Any solid color works best, earthy colors like brown, rust, wine or green look great outside. Some prints are good, just not a crazy busy one that will draw attention away from you. Be careful with stripes, sometimes they can make you appear larger than you really are.

Choosing similar colors or colors in the same hue, ie. all blue shirts with jeans is a nice look. If someone has a different color or print they will stand out.

My session prices this year are:

Sitting fee, no prints included:
$32.32 for 1 hour. We can even do some photos outside if you'd like weather permitting.

What happens next? I edit your pictures, upload them to a gallery with your name and you choose what ever prints you’d like, put them in the cart and order with your credit card. I never see your credit card info, only what you have ordered. I then pass the order on to the printers and they will come directly to your home.
If you aren’t comfortable with making an online order we can meet to make your order thru me. I will have to add sales tax in that case.

The prints may be ordered directly from the online website, at the following prices:

You then give your final approval and quantity of your order. I take cash or check for these orders also. They will come directly to you.

Once again, thank you for considering All Things Beautiful Photography!
