Spoiler Alert…the answer to whether you should schedule an in home family photo session is ENTIRELY UP TO YOU! After nearly 15 years of family photography, some of my favorite sessions have been in a family’s home. Capturing your family where you live and love every day makes for truly special moments.

A few of my favorite reasons to photograph your family session in your home:

An in home family photo session creates a setting that’s uniquely yours. From the couch where you snuggle together during family movies or your child’s bed where you cuddle up for bedtime stories to the kitchen filled with shared meals and cooking rituals, your home tells your story. And good news, there’s no packing or planning needed—at your home we get to capture your natural, everyday life.

In-home family sessions keep things relaxed, especially for kids. They can play with their favorite toys, curl up in familiar spots, and just be themselves. This comfort leads to the most genuine smiles and interactions. Plus, no need to worry about weather—it’s always just right inside!

I know many clients worry that their house isn’t “photo-ready”? Don’t be! Your home does not need to be spotless or magazine-perfect. The goal is to capture real, meaningful moments in a place you pour your whole selves into each and every day. When I come into your home for a session, I look for the natural light and cozy corners that show off your everyday life in beautiful, heartwarming images that you will treasure for years to come.

And while I absolutely love scheduling a family photo session in your home…an outdoor adventure or scenic backdrop might be the better fit for your dream family session and I’ve got countless location choices for you to consider. But if you want photos that reflect your family’s daily life, an in-home session is the perfect choice.

Whether at home or outdoors, the most important thing is capturing your family in a way that feels true to you. My goal is to tell your story as authentically as possible—wherever that may be!
