Sunset sessions are NOT a mini session. These are full sessions, with 30 min of shooting. Only two 30-minute sessions will be held per night & those families will be my only focus.
The purpose of these sessions is to capture still portraits.
All sessions will take place during the last 90 minutes of daylight as the sun sets. We call this golden hour and the light is gorgeous!
A beautiful, 1-minute moving portrait can be added to as a tribute to life during this season
for an additional $125. Moving portraits are video snippets from your session of your family enjoying togetherness.
Hey my name is Jen!
I’m a storyteller who is ready to meet you and get to know you. A photographer that’ll pull the real you out in photos.
A videographer that’ll show the authentic, meaningful, everyday moments of your life so you can treasure them longs after they're gone.
I am looking forward to meeting you, learning about your family and gifting you a photographic legacy.

Our sunset sessions are perfect for families with tight schedules. Each session lasts just 30 minutes, making it easy to fit into your day without sacrificing quality.
