Natural Light Monthly Baby Milestone Minis
All year
Once per month, the natural light studio is open to all of our "Under 2's" for a sweet mini session just for them. Document as many times as you'd like with us this year!
You want a year of images you actually use.
You want: A family album that feels cohesive and styled, photos at-the-ready for gifts, holiday cards, and annual calendars & the life and spark of who your kids are right now. And, it's got to fit into your busy schedule.
What many families have instead is a last minute Fall booking, a quick holiday card and hundreds of images they never quite get around to printing. My Annual Portrait Events are designed to give you a complete, curated visual record of your family across the year, with guidance at every step so the images don’t sit on your hard drive forever - they make it into your life.
let's craft a beautiful year.
"during the shoot she knows in minutes how to connect with each child (& parent) to bring out their photogenic and authentic selves.
And, "...families somehow leave with more joy and connectedness."
— melissa v.
"We love Kate! We have had 3 sessions with her and she is miraculously able to get my little ones to smile at the camera at the same time. So gifted, highly recommend!
— courtney b.
Want something that's entirely
your own & unique to you?
If you’re dreaming of a session that doesn’t fit neatly into a seasonal event, we can create it together. One-on-one concepted sessions are fully custom and Kate takes a limited number each year.
These sessions are ideal for those seeking large scale artwork that includes their family or children but doesn't read like a traditional family portrait.
want the whole fam there?
looking for
fall mini sessions?
My Fall Mini Sessions are limited edition - each year I rotate in a different set of locations so it's always creative for both of us.
