Investment

I know money feels tighter for a lot of families right now, and I don't take it lightly that you're thinking about spending it on a session with me. What I'm making for you isn't just a set of images — it's a record of exactly who your family is in this moment, the one you won't be able to get back or recreate. That's what I'm holding when I'm behind the camera with you, and I know what it means that you're trusting me with it.

Choosing one of these sessions isn't just a vote for me and my work — it's a way of helping preserve an analog form of art. It's putting faith in over a decade of knowing how to read a room full of small kids and tired parents, knowing exactly when to step back and let a moment happen on its own or when to gently offer direction. It's helping keep real film in production. It's supporting the skill of the lab technicians who develop and scan each roll by hand at a lab here in San Francisco.

At its core, what you're choosing to spend your money on is part of a special ecosystem of people who care about their work during a time when it can feel like all of that is at risk of being replaced by something artificial, faster, and cheaper. Thank you for considering being a part of it.

  • The standard session — up to two hours documenting your family as they are right now, in San Francisco or the greater Bay Area. Ideal for maternity, newborn, or family photography: the chaos, the tenderness, the in-between moments, shot on 35mm and medium format film. Minimum 100 high-resolution edited images delivered via online gallery. Includes 10 fine art prints.

    Starting at $600

  • The long-form session. Six hours alongside your family, shot entirely on film. I come to you, I stay, and I document what a real day in your life looks like — morning light, afternoon naps, dinnertime, or a trip somewhere meaningful. This is a favorite for families wanting a fuller record of a specific season: new baby, postpartum, a day trip to your favorite place, or simply life right now with small kids. Includes 20 fine art prints.

    Starting at $1800

  • Don't see what you're looking for? If you're picturing a maternity, newborn, or multi-generational family session that doesn't quite fit the packages above, email me what you have in mind and we'll collaborate together to make something work.

  • Life is once. Forever.
