I just wrapped up another incredible family photoshoot, and as I sit here looking through the images, I can’t help but be reminded why these moments matter so much. Moms, I know the struggle all too well—getting the kids dressed, convincing your partner to wear something besides his favorite old t-shirt, and making sure everyone is out the door on time (because let’s be honest, you need to leave at least 20 minutes earlier than you think). It can feel like a full-blown mission, complete with meltdowns, last-minute outfit changes, and maybe even a little sweat session before you even get to your session. But let me tell you—every bit of effort is so worth it when you have these images to cherish forever.

Your kids may be cranky, and your toddler might refuse to put their shoes on, but that’s where I come in! I promise to bring the fun, the laughter, and the energy. I’ll jump, dance, make funny noises, and use creative prompts to capture your family in the most genuine way possible. No stiff, forced smiles—just the real, beautiful love and personality that makes your family unique. I focus on creating an experience that allows you to be yourselves, embrace the chaos, and end up with photos that tell your story in the most authentic way.

How to Prepare for Your Family Photoshoot

One of the biggest things I always recommend to my families is to wear outfits that complement each other without clashing. Neutrals, soft earthy tones, and simple, timeless colors photograph beautifully and ensure that the focus remains on your family’s connection. If we’re shooting on the beach, flowy dresses create gorgeous movement in the breeze, and comfy clothing for the littles is a must—because happy kids make for the best pictures! When you feel comfortable and confident in what you’re wearing, it shows in the final images. Not sure what to wear? I'm here to help!

At Wanderlust Studios, I make sure your photoshoot is seamless, stress-free, and—most importantly—fun! From selecting the perfect location to making sure everything flows smoothly on the day of, I collaborate with you every step of the way. These are the memories that you’ll hold onto forever, the ones that freeze time in a way nothing else can.

So, book your family adventure now—before those kids get any older! Let’s capture the love, laughter, and beautiful chaos that makes your family one-of-a-kind.
