Charlotte Family Photographer- Your Story

Let's press pause and remember the way your family felt in this season of life.

As a former children's theatre director, I love encouraging kids to be playful and present. I believe the best family photos don’t come from perfect poses, they come from connection.



From the chaos, the cuddles, the quiet smiles, and all the in between moments that tell your real story.

What's The Process?


I help families make the whole photography experience feel simple, relaxed, and enjoyable from the moment you inquire to the moment you receive your gallery.

01 — Plan Your Session

Once we’ve decided we’re a good fit, I’ll send over a contract and a link to pay your retainer to officially reserve your date.

Then we’ll start planning your session! You’ll receive my Style & Session Guide to help with everything from what to wear to what to expect, along with a short questionnaire so I can get to know you and plan a session that feels personal to you.

We’ll choose the perfect location together, talk through the details, and answer any questions you have along the way. By the time your session arrives, you’ll know exactly what to expect and can simply relax, enjoy your family, and let me take care of the rest.


02 — Enjoy Your Family

This is where the fun begins. You don't need to know how to pose or worry about getting everyone to smile. I'll gently guide you while giving your family space to play, explore, snuggle, and simply be together.


03- Delivery

After your session, I'll carefully edit your photographs and deliver your gallery online for you to make your selection of images for your package. Additional images and prints are available to purchase as well. Once you make your selection I will finish editing those images and then deliver them to you via an online gallery within two weeks.

You'll have beautiful images to print, frame, share, and come back to years from now.

Testimonial

“If I could give Grace 10 stars I would. She photographed myself and my three children and the way she handled our complete disorganization and chaos was that of a pro. She was making the kids laugh and really helped me loosen up, as I am not one who loves to be in front of the camera. She truly captured “us” and our photos turned out better than I ever could have imagined!I cannot wait to book her again, she is pure magic!"


Ashley

I help families slow down, have fun, and enjoy being together while I capture authentic moments for you.


What If My Kids Don't Cooperate?


That's okay. Really.

I help families throughout Charlotte, Huntersville, Lake Norman, Davidson, and surrounding areas let go of the pressure to have perfect family photos.

Your toddler might want to run. Your baby might need a break. Your teenager might not be thrilled about having their picture taken.

That's real life, and that's what I'm there for.

I'm comfortable working with kids and letting their personalities become part of the session. Sometimes the moments we didn't plan become the photographs you love the most!

You don't need perfectly behaved children for beautiful family photos.
