Fall Family Sessions

CRISP AIR. GOLDEN LEAVES. REAL SMILES.

Fall is the most magical time to gather your favorite people and make a little time stand still.

I’ll guide you through a relaxed, joy‑filled session that celebrates your family exactly as you are—snuggles, giggles, wind‑tossed hair and all.


Quick Details

  • Season: Late September – early November - See available dates below.

  • Locations: North/Central NJ parks & farms (Washington, Hackettstown, Chester, Califon, Jockey Hollow, Natirar, and more). Travel available.

  • My promise: Stress‑free flow, flattering light, gentle direction, and images you’ll treasure long after the leaves fall.

Dates & Locations

I photograph at favorite leaf‑peeping gems throughout Warren, Morris, Sussex, and Hunterdon counties (and beyond by request). We will select your location as we get closer to your date;  options like riverside paths, meadows, if you have a sentimental spot, let’s use it.


How Booking Works

  1. Reserve your spot with a signed agreement + retainer.

  2. Plan with me—quick style consult and tips for kids.

  3. Session day! We keep it playful and easy.

  4. Gallery delivery—download favorites, order prints, and design cards.


What to Wear 

  • Coordinate, don’t match. Think complementary tones with one pattern and solids elsewhere.

  • Texture wins. Knits, denim, linen, suede, chunky scarves.

  • Earthy fall palette. Cream, camel, forest, rust, navy, soft berry.

  • Footwear you can move in. We may wander a bit.

  • Avoid neon, heavy logos, or anything itchy.

FAQ

What happens if it rains?
I hold weather watches and make the final call the night before your session. In the chance of inclement weather, we will move your session to new date.  Cloudy works, Rain does not.  

Can I bring grandparents or pets?
Yes! Grandparents are always welcome; friendly pups too (where allowed). For extended family groups with grandparents, etc, ask about an upgraded timeline and cost. 

Do you help with posing?
Absolutely. I’ll guide you into flattering light and natural prompts so you never feel stiff.

How do we receive photos?
A private online gallery for downloading, sharing, and ordering professional prints and/or albums.
