Family Sessions

Family sessions are something we highly value at Puddles and Pearls. Families from all over love to get together for this one special moment and photograph that point in time of their lives. Families love to look back on their portraits and be able to cherish them decades later.  As a photographer, I love to capture these special moments. At Puddles and Pearls, we will cater your specific sessions based on your needs and desires. 

What we offer?

At Puddles and Pearls, our goal is to take the stress off our clients that may come along with planning portrait sessions. We will first start off with an in-home style and design consultation. This is where we will get more of a feel for your personality. and further discuss what you are envisioning for your portrait session. Next, we will show you outfits from our studio closet as well as go through your personal closet to find coordinating outfits for the family. Oftentimes, we will coordinate the session with a specific area in your home so that it is essentially designed for the space making it fit in seamlessly to your décor. There is nothing like a family portrait that truly “belongs” where it is displayed! 

During your session, we like to pamper our clients by offering complimentary makeup and light hair styling. We know that the morning of your session may be a chaotic time getting everyone together, we like to extend a helping hand by offering complimentary professional services that can help you get ready and feel beautiful for your portraits. 

Our pampering doesn't stop there, during your session, if at the studio, we will make a custom charcuterie board just for your family. We will offer a variety of snacks along with a variety of beverages such as teas, sodas, water, juices, cappuccinos, and lattes. If we have a planned session outdoors, we will call you a few days before your session to ask you if you would like us to make a coffee run for you to bring to your session. 

Where do you provide sessions?

We provide sessions in studio, at select outdoor locations, or both. 

What type of products do you offer?

We like to offer our clients high quality products. Our products range from prints, matted prints, legacy boxes, albums, framed artwork, and museum quality canvases.
