Documentary Photography Sessions


When you book a documentary session, you get one-of-a-kind photographs that preserve the beauty that is unique to your life.

Documentary photography sessions are wholly unscripted and 100% unique to you and your life.

While I pride myself on keeping all sessions comfortable and low-key, documentary sessions have an additional element of “chill” and require minimal prep work. They’re especially great for families with young children, those who feel particularly uncomfortable being directed in front of the lens, and for folks who want to document their unique flavor of life.


What to Expect When Booking a Documentary Session

  • We decide on a date and time. You reserve your session by paying half the fee and signing my contract. The final fee is due the day of our session.

  • Think about if you want to do a special activity while I’m over or if you want life to unfold as it usually does.

  • I join you. We chat, laugh, and have a good time.

  • Sessions last 1-2 hours unless previously discussed.

  • Your memories are delivered to you in a specially curated online gallery.

    Restriction: Documentary sessions may not be used as “event photography.”
