SENIOR

One of the best ways to remember your high school experience, and to celebrate your transition into adulthood is through a senior portrait session. A Senior session with Behind the Shutter LLC isn’t just about taking pictures. It’s about developing a relationship together, getting to know who you are, and bringing that out in your portraits.  My goal is to be there every step of the way as we capture your story. From the initial consultation to handing over the final printed pieces from your session, I will assist you through an experience you will treasure for years to come.

 

If you would like to incorporate multiple outfits in your senior portraits, don't worry about finding a bathroom to change in. Upon request, I provide a portable changing tent that can be used on location.

​

Included in every senior package is a yearbook headshot taken during your scheduled session with a backdrop. Once you choose your preferred image, I will handle everything with the school. Please note that most yearbook deadlines are in early October, so don't wait to schedule your session.

FAMILY

While you may have plenty of snapshots of your little ones on your phone, those images aren't always suitable for printing and displaying on your walls. With a professional family photo shoot, you can rest assured that everyone will be included in the photo and looking their best. Imagine having a beautiful portrait of your family hanging above the fireplace, capturing this moment in time for years to come.

How many times have you intended to schedule a family photo, and then you looked at your calendar and thought, how can we get this in? So many times I hear that it has been years since you've gotten them updated.  Life gets hectic (I totally understand!) and you discover that you don’t have the time to schedule everyone for a beautiful portrait. It's common for busy families to put off professional portraits, only to realize years have gone by without an update. With me as your professional family photographer, you can leave the scheduling and planning to me. I'll work with you to find a convenient time and location that works best for your family.

Perhaps you have plenty of photos of your children, but very few with you and your spouse in them. Or, maybe you've tried to take family photos yourself, only to be disappointed with the results. A professional family photo shoot is a great solution. You'll have beautiful, timeless photos to cherish for years to come, capturing the essence of your family and the love you share.

I offer family sessions throughout the year at a location of your choice. If you need help selecting a location, I have several favorite spots that I'd be happy to share with you. These sessions are designed for immediate family only. If you're interested in an extended family session, please don't hesitate to contact me for more information.

MATERNITY/NEWBORN

You’re counting down the days until your little one arrives! You won't be pregnant forever, and your pregnancy will fly by quicker than you anticipated.  Before you know it, your little bundle of joy will be here!

Are you unsure whether you should invest in professional maternity photos? As a mother myself, I understand that pregnancy can be overwhelming and uncomfortable, but it's also an incredibly special time that deserves to be captured. My maternity photo sessions are designed to help you remember the excitement and anticipation of welcoming your little one into the world.

During our session, I'll work with you to capture the unique beauty of your pregnancy. You don't have to worry about posing or feeling self-conscious - I'll guide you through the process and make sure you're comfortable every step of the way. You can even pamper yourself with professional hair and makeup, so you feel and look your best for the photos.

Not only will these photos capture a special moment in time, but they can also be a wonderful way to bond with your partner and involve any older siblings. Plus, they make great keepsakes to share with your child as they grow up.

It's important to schedule your newborn photo session within the first two weeks of your baby's life to capture those precious first moments. As a professional newborn photographer, I know how to create a safe and comfortable environment for your little one, while capturing their tiny features and personality. Don't miss the chance to create lasting memories of your growing family - contact me to schedule your session today.

MILESTONE
SMASH & SPLASH
SESSIONS

The first few years of your little ones life are full of constant changes and milestones, they are changing every single day and before you know it, they aren't so little anymore.

Capturing the precious moments of your little one's growth is important as they change so rapidly during this time. While you may take plenty of snapshots on your phone, a professional photography session can provide you with high-quality images to treasure for years to come.

Between 6 to 9 months, your baby becomes more independent and curious. It's a perfect opportunity to capture their growth, curiosity, and individual personality with a professional photography session. You can choose to have the session styled with various backdrops and props, including a smash food or painting, or keep it simple to highlight your baby's features and expressions.

I also offer splash sessions as an add-on to any smash session for an additional 15 minutes and 4 images for $100, ensuring your baby is cleaned up before you leave. These sessions are perfect for birthday invitations, sharing adorable photos with friends and family, or simply cherishing these special moments.
