A beautiful September morning session with the Fausches

I've photographed the Fausches since Felix was about his baby brother's age

The magic of photographing families year after year is the ease that grows between us. They trust the process, knowing their photos will be beautiful, which frees them up to simply play, connect, and soak in the joy of being together. That’s where the real moments happen.








Connected, happy, natural

The story behind the scenes

I always bring along fun blankets to sessions, it's a way of creating a feeling of home at any location. I was so excited to see that the Fausches perfectly matched my favorite LL Bean quilt. 

35 mm film and digital

Photos that make you feel something.

During this session, I used a mix of film and digital. I also leaned into more filmy edits, which I think are not only classic and timeless, but also just really make you feel an image. I handed my camera over to the big kids and let them shoot an entire roll of Kodak Portra. So fun to see the way that they see their family.

Do filmy storytelling images give you butterflies?

Let's create something beautiful together.
