I take the same approach with family photos photos that I do with weddings - creating an atmosphere of fun to REALLY capture your family. Yes, I'll get the ones of you all smiling at the camera but my absolute favorite ones are your family interacting, your kids running, your daughter twirling. I try and capture the perfectly imperfect truth that is a family. Whether you are planning a vacation in Sunriver, a family reunion in Sisters, I truly believe that Bend & Central Oregon has the absolute best scenery to adventure to - from Smith Rock to beautiful aspen trees and meadows right in town!
Bend, Oregon FAMILY PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY
Natural Lifestyle Photography for Families
I'm one of the rare people actually from Bend. After adventuring around the world and meeting my husband in New York City, I convinced him that we were Oregon people at heart and moved back here!
We now have a rambunctious toddler which has made me fall back in love with portrait and family photography. My favorite photos are always the moments in between. I also have a new understanding of how stressful family photos can be (and sometimes feel a miracle to get out the door). I try to inspire those true real smiles and laughs and make the process as fun and painless as possible.

What's included in a Family Session?
Details
For families with young children I love places close to town like Shevlin Park, Dillon Falls, and even Drake Park. Easy locations tend to make for less stressful family sessions. If you want somewhere that feels epic, Smith Rock and Sparks lake are often great options. For families coming from out of town and staying in Sunriver there are great spots nearby.
Generally you can expect around 75 images that will be fully edited. Each gallery has a pin to download the high resolution images which can be shared with family members so they can directly download.

What should I wear?
This is totally up to you! I generally suggest 1 outfit with a mix of colors. I always suggest erring on the side of timeless rather than trendy and comfortable for kids! We'll want to run around a bit so shoes that won't slip and can get a little bit dirty can create a more fun session. The more fun equals the more smiles! Keep in mind most places do not have public bathrooms to change in.

“I've had the pleasure of working with Hannah for the past three years, Hannah is great with our toddler—she has such a natural way of making her feel at ease, and capturing those perfect, candid moments. She brings so much energy and fun to each shoot, making it feel less like a photo session and more like a fun afternoon hanging out. Hannah is so talented and truly a gem, and we are so grateful to have her as our family photographer!"
"Feels like a fun afternoon"
