of family

Families are by far one of our favorite session types. They allow us time to laugh, play, be silly, and have fun. Capture your little or big ones just as they are today with professional portraits that showcase real connections between those we love most of all.

Family Sessions

all the poses you could ever need

Family

These poses include everyone, all together. Depending on the style you choose, and the location, you may want something a little more casual and relaxed, or poised and posed.

Groupings

These poses include mom + dad, or just the boys, or kids only, or mom and child individually. Depending on your family structure, we'll mix it up so you get a little bit of everything possible.

Individuals

A family session is a great time for a quick headshot, or for a personality shot. We'll capture each family member individually, including mom and dad.

Your pictures, your style.

Some families love to cuddle and some live for sunny days of fun. Still, others crave an editorial studio experience, while some prefer a classic, perfectly posed outdoor studio portrait.

 

Regardless of your family’s preference for being silly or serious, you can count on us to provide you with consistent quality.

For a different look, some families choose a more posed, studio light style, and we love that too! It’s a little less relaxed and playful, but absolutely classy and refined. It’s totally up to you!

 

Armed with a power pack and a weighted light stand, we’re ready to take our light to any place you can imagine. We’ll make even your local park look amazing. What we create is only limited to our imaginations.

She took the most gorgeous maternity and newborn pictures for me and I couldn’t be more in love with them. She’s fun and amazing to work with and makes you feel comfortable and at ease when doing your pictures, and she’s also fantastic when it comes to taking pictures of your babies and kiddos. I strongly suggest looking at her work and considering a session! You won’t have any regrets about it if you do have her take your pictures, but if you pass her up you’ll wish you hadn’t! 😆

Absolute best photographer you will find. My youngest is a HANDFUL! She worked with him, let him look through the camera and mess with it a little bit to where he got comfortable around her. Took time out to discuss what the kids liked and really kept them interested, while getting them to pose and get some of the most adorable pictures of my kids. Amazing with children. Sweetest soul you will find! And the picture quality? Well, it speaks for itself! If you’re needing pictures done I would 100% recommend Fairfeather Art. You will NOT be disappointed.

Needs more stars, five just doesn’t do it. We LOVE the photos She did of our baby and plan to book a family shoot very soon. She is an awesome person who is easy to work with, patient and VERY good at what she does. I personally have used "professional" photographers a few times and trust me she blows them all away. Plus she kept even my fussy baby feeling comfortable. I couldn’t be happier.

Not only is Mel extremely professional and talented, she is just overall welcoming and will go out of her way to make sure you get the pictures you want. Between kids, boudoir, maternity, and soon newborn pictures I can’t even imagine having anyone else take care of our pictures.

It's clear that Mel cares about her customers most. We were expecting a stuffy studio, but were pleasantly surprised when she told us she could bring her setup to us. It was more personal and so comfortable. Mel is a riot! We loved that her website and pricing was all very straightforward with zero surprises. Her work is superb. She went above and beyond to deliver and the results are easy to see every day on our walls!
