Maryland Family
Photography
Capture the love.
Photographs capture a moment in time that’s impossible to reproduce. After that click, the moment is gone forever.
Step One
The Process
Family photography sessions are crafted to fit your family’s unique style and interests. We have sought out the most unique and desirable locations in Howard County for your family photography session. Pets are always welcome, because after-all they’re family, too! To inquire about a family session, please fill out the form below. Once you’ve made contact, we’ll discuss your vision, select a date/time and location. Lighting is everything, so sessions either take place in the morning, or evening. A 50% deposit is due upon contract signing which covers planning, communication, location fees, styling and then of course the session time itself.
Step Two
The Session
The day before your family photography session, our team will send a reminder email (because we all need those) which will include additional session details. Weather is everything, so if the weather is not on our side, we will schedule a makeup date. Once you arrive, your photographer will capture both posed and non-posed photographs.
We’re also here to help with posing and will be snapping away throughout the session capturing raw moments with each-other; making for the most natural and organic photographs. We’re very interactive with young children during family sessions. Our team of photographers are Mothers themselves and have a variety of songs and games to keep your children happy and attentive. Children’s attention spans do not last long, so we’ll aim to capture more posed images of the children at the beginning of your session, then let them wander and play.
Step Three
The Reveal
After your session is done, we will be in touch with you throughout the editing process; sending sneak peaks and discussing the editing style to ensure you’re loving your photographs. Photos are hand-edited meticulously and take time to produce; allowing for a turnaround time of roughly 2-4 weeks. Photos will be delivered via email in a digital gallery where you’ll view your collection. It’s our goal to make sure you’re 100% satisfied with your album, so please let her know if you have any questions or concerns.
Hair & Makeup Artistry
Let’s face it, we’re always spending time getting everyone else ready for family photo sessions that we often forget to pamper ourselves. Let us take care of that for you! @StylebySaxony, an award winning hair and makeup artist who has performed artistry ranging from Kamala Harris to Brides-to-be is available to come to your home, or on-site to complete your hair and makeup.
