Whidbey Island Family Photographer

A Boutique Family Portrait Experience

 

LIFE is Stressful and complicated.

Family pictures don’t have to be.

You shouldn’t have to worry about where to take pictures, what to wear, or how your kids will behave. You deserve to make memories with your family and have someone else do the work (for once). A boutique family portrait experience puts you at the center, with a high-end photographer who treats you like a friend, guides you through your session, and takes care of all of the details for you.

You always put your family first.

Now it’s my turn.

 

The Experience

Family Pictures can be fun.
Yep, I said it.

 
 
 

TAKING FAMILY PICTURES SHOULDN’T FEEL LIKE WORK.

Your family can genuinely have a great time with one another in front of the camera. Whether it’s building a sand castle, a dance-off with dad, or dipping your toes in the water,

 

just being yourselves is enough.

“kara is a dream to work with.”

“Kara is WONDERFUL! She's kind and thoughtful, and to beat all that - an AMAZING photographer! She is a dream to work with - considerate, accommodating, skilled, and professional. She keeps the kids giggling and the husbands from rolling their eyes. I hope to have our family photos taken by Kara for years to come!

The Experience

You deserve so much more than pretty pictures.

one-on-one Service

Your experience begins with a quick call so I can learn all about you and your family, but the service and open communication will last long after your session.

“kara worked her magic.”

“Kara is purely one of the most talented photographers out there. My husband and boys can't sit still yet somehow she worked her magic and delivered a full gallery of photos I'm still gushing over!”

Digital Files and Prints?! (Oh my!)

Each one of the collections you'll choose from includes digitals PLUS a print credit. No, really!

Use your print credit toward your choice of anything in the gallery store (and see what it will look like before you buy)! From fine art prints, to framed images, to archival albums (and even some extra digital files) - the choice is yours.

(p.s. Make some wall space now, friend!)

Find the right Photographer for you

If you want matching clothes and everyone staring at the camera, then we’re probably not the right fit (and that’s okay)!

But if you want moving images that capture the in-between moments and personal connections of your favorite people AND you want the experience to be easy and fun?

Then you’ve come to the right place.
