A family photographer in Columbia, MO who keeps it relaxed

Family pictures should feel easy, not stiff. I keep the session moving and give real direction, so everyone knows where to stand and what to do. You get professional lighting and full retouching on images that still look like your family on a good day.

How a family session works

We start with a tour of the studio in Columbia and a conversation about what you want to remember. The session itself runs 60 to 90 minutes, in the studio or on location. Grandparents, cousins, everyone: tell me who is coming and I will plan the time around them.

Made for your walls

Family portraits are meant to be seen every day. One to three weeks after your session, you come back for a movie theater reveal, see your images on the big screen, and choose the wall prints, albums and products that fit your home. Family sessions include a $150 print credit, and any product 11x14 or larger includes the digital file, albums excluded.

Families across Mid-Missouri

I have photographed families in Columbia since 2003, and I work with families from Ashland, Hallsville, Centralia, Fulton, Boonville, Jefferson City and the rest of Mid-Missouri.

I am a PPA Certified Professional Photographer with 23+ years behind the camera, and Columbia has voted CBP Silver for Best Photographer four years running. If you are looking for a family photographer in Columbia, MO, see what is included on the Sessions and Pricing page or book below.
