Limited Edition
all the amazing colors and textures of the season
We scout locations that have amazing texture, light & offer that intangible cool factor. Since we have a studio, we do outdoor sessions a little different than other photographers, we are at specific locations on specific days! Interested in a specific location, date and time, we totally offer custom sessions.
We have a kid-led philosophy. Children learn best in a nurturing, child-initiated play-based environment that fosters self-confidence, trust, creativity, autonomy and acceptance of individual differences. Kid-led, means we take their lead. We let them set the pace, we let them express themselves and we let them have fun. It means you can relax and we can get the images you want. We promise, we are only done with the session when we know we have the images!
Our outdoor sessions can last anywhere from 20 to 45 min. We have time to capture everyone together, sibling images & individuals of each kid.
We scout locations that are compact to ensure little ones don't have to walk too far and always secure three different looks within each session (kinda like the backgrounds in-studio). Our outdoor sessions hibernate when the trees do, honestly, it just looks dead outside, we wake up again in May!

Philadelphia Family Photography
You can expect to pay anywhere from $375 to $1500, depending on what you select! We do it totally differently, because we believe in making custom easy. Buy only what works for your budget and needs! Product is always sold in addition to the session fee and is always the same price, regardless of the session type.
As a full service studio, we don't send you a proof sheet for you to manage on your own. We have a time proven process that makes it easy for a busy parent to quickly (think 15-45 min) select the images and how they want to preserve them - digitally, album, custom framed or cards!
The price
Pesky Deets: Images are saved for 30-days from date of session, after which all unordered images are purged. Rush images are available for an additional $25/ image. Unfortunately, there are yucky people in the word who ruin it for everyone, so we do not offer a digital gallery for review, like ever.
