  • Our Signature Style blends natural authenticity with clean, elevated enhancements. Every image is fine-tuned for beautiful exposure, balanced light, true-to-life color, and cohesive tones that feel both vibrant and timeless. Skin tones remain natural, expressions stay genuine, and the overall look reflects the real atmosphere of your session, just polished in all the right ways.

    We also apply light refinement techniques such as noise reduction, subtle sharpening, and the removal of small distracting background elements when needed. These enhancements create images that feel honest, cinematic, and effortlessly beautiful without ever looking over-edited.

    Please note:
    Our Signature Style does not include individualized retouching (such as body slimming, wrinkle removal, major object removal, teeth whitening, etc.). Those services are available as an additional fee upon request.

  • Extended families include grandparents, multiple sibling families, or any group with more than one household.

  • We do not. Once your session has been edited we will upload it to a private online gallery for you to make your final selections.

    * This does not include our Life Between Frames Mini Sessions where the images are selected by the photographers.

  • Image selection will vary from one session to the next. On average, a shorter session duration results in fewer images to select from. For example, a 30-minute session will typically have between 40 - 60 images for you to choose from, while a 60-minute session will usually have 100+.

    * Our Mini Sessions include 10 or 15 images ONLY, selected by the photographers.

  • This will vary slightly depending on your location choice. For example, if you want your session on the beach then we suggest scheduling your session for either sunrise or sunset. This is when lighting will be optimal for beach portraits. Sunrise is a bit more unpredictable regarding lighting because it solely depends on the cloud coverage that morning. Sunset guarantees you at least 10 to 15 minutes of the perfect light.

  • Most of our clients are looking for beach portraits. There are many beautiful beaches in the area to choose from. Our personal favorite is Huntington Beach State Park in scenic Murrells Inlet, SC. This park offers 3 miles of unspoiled beachfront surrounded by lush dunes, saltwater marshes, and the historic Atalaya Castle. Our second choice would be Myrtle Beach State Park. Although generally more busy than Huntington, this park also has a lovely beach, a small rustic boardwalk, and an pier.

    If you are looking for locations other than the beach, we’re happy to suggest alternative locations.

  • We will monitor the weather closely and will reach out with a reschedule window if needed. Soft overcast is actually beautiful for portrait sessions.

    * We ask that our clients have flexibility incase moving around the date/time is necessary.

We want to extend our sincerest gratitude to you for considering us for your photographic needs.

What we love most about extended family sessions is witnessing the authentic moments of connection and joy that unfold organically. Whether it's a grandparent's tender embrace, siblings sharing a laugh, or cousins engaging in playful antics, these candid moments are the true heartbeat of the session.

We understand that selecting a photographer is not a decision to be taken lightly. That's why we've curated this pricing guide to simplify your choices. Our transparent and comprehensive guide will help you navigate the process effortlessly, making it easier to select the perfect package that aligns with your unique requirements.

Thank you for considering us to document your extended family session. We are genuinely excited about the opportunity to capture the beauty and authenticity of your family's story, and we can't wait to create images that will be cherished for years to come.

♥ Nikki and Neal
