You know the drill, right? You hire a photographer for a certain time, stress over your family's clothes and get gel in your kiddos' hair. You show up sweaty and hoping for the best only to get ZERO GUIDANCE and photos that certainly mark a moment, but aren’t at all what you dreamed about.
I think it's important to help families and groups of loved ones (even dogs!) feel READY and RELAXED for their photo session.
CHERISH-WORTHY PHOTOS REQUIRE MORE THAN THE show up & shoot METHOD
experience
the portrait
Because I know you say, "I just want to get pictures done!" but you really mean MORE than that. You want your love for each other, your quirks and dynamics captured in real time in a way that looks like you, but elevated.
And that can only happen with a photographer who's willing to be more of a friend and less of a vendor, diving into the mess and the moment with you to bring out the best version of your CURRENT REALITY.
I'm not your average family photographer. And when you work with me you can expect a relaxed, fun, no-pressure session that everyone actually enjoys!
From the moment you meet to every smile you add to “your people,” your family is unfolding right before your eyes.
After your session, we will schedule a Zoom call and view your beautiful images for the first time! We will work together to narrow down your favorites and create custom artwork for your home. Tissues highly recommended.
This is the fun part! Once you have your hair and makeup done, you get to focus on making memories with your family and just being yourselves. I'll take care of the rest and guide you every step of the way to capture it perfectly in my bright and timeless style!
This is where we'll confirm your session date and location, plan out your outfits, and discuss artwork!
The design call is held via Zoom call. This way you can show me outfits and look at artwork samples.

We did our photo session in Paris, France. It was INCREDIBLE. Ruby took the time to send us outfit ideas and a checklist of tips to ensure we get the best photos out of our session. When we met in Paris she had the BEST spots to shoot and she made us feel so comfortable and beautiful in front of the camera.
" I will recommend Ruby to anyone who needs photos taken!! EVER. I wish I could give her 100 stars!"
– Melissa P. | Family Session
I am so happy we chose Ruby as our family photographer. She made the process seamless, she made us very comfortable, and she offers so much helpful information in regard to location and clothing options. The photos turned out SO beautifully.
"Ruby truly captured the love we have for each other and somehow managed to make us look like superstars!"
