The Styling Appointment
The first step of your photographic experience is to plan who you would like to bring to your photographic day, what to wear, timeline of the session, and visualize where these images will be enjoyed. For this appointment to be most fruitful, it is best to meet in your home. I can meet your loved ones and get to know your family a bit more. Optional Zoom call is also available for the out-of-towners.
The Photo Shoot
My shoots are fun and carefree! Of course, there will a few guided poses for the artwork on your wall, announcement cards, and for the grandparents! Embracing every aspect of your photo shoot and telling your family story through my images really means the most to me. Get ready to enjoy a fun time and marvel how easy and peasy it was – even dad will enjoy it too! Let’s capture some beautiful photos!
Design and Ordering
You can view your images on the same day after your photo shoot. We will cull through all the images and make final decisions on which types of finished products will look best with your home decors. I will present your favorite images via a slideshow, with accompanying music, so get some Kleenex handy! You’ll see a set of pre-designed wall galleries perfectly placed and sized for your walls. I will also help you pair images together for a custom album. This is my client’s favorite part of the portrait experience!
Delivery and Installation
Your artwork will be ready in about 6-10 weeks. We can install them in your home or office locally or have them wrapped up beautifully as gifts to your loved ones afar. And once those portraits are displayed, you can sit back and cherish your artwork that just happens to be your family.
I am so thankful when families return year after year to add their gallery walls or album collection with their changing family. Seeing your family grow is the sweetest part of my job!

“I love how she captured her personality”
I loved the whole experience. So glad I made the time to do it. Sandra was so gentle with my daughter. I love how she captured her personality, especially her smile. I will definitely be coming back for future family photos and hopefully another baby shoot in the future.

“you are in for a WOW experience”
It is like Cinderella, with the help of the mice and birds, looked nice enough for the ball. The Fairy god mother, however, made her look “WOW!!” Sandra’s team is like the Fairy god mother. She will make you look fabulous without looking like a complete different person.

“We love our gorgeous family portrait”
We love our gorgeous family portrait with Sandra. I love how she captured my son’s genuine and natural smile. The photo took place when he was almost 3 years old. We will adore our photos for a life time!

“we’ll treasure a lifetime!”
My family and I had an exceptional time working with Sandra. We greatly appreciated her guidance in capturing the essence of our family during our photo session. The location she chose was perfect and SO beautiful. It was was fun! Our kids usually don’t like taking family pictures but Sandra made them feel at ease. We ended up with amazing pictures we’ll treasure a lifetime.
