With 15+ years behind the camera, I know family photography is about more than just pictures. I’ve handled meltdowns, turned chaos into cherished moments, and shared countless giggles with little ones. But the best part? Watching these kids grow year after year.

Booking Process

First Phone call

This is where we get a chance to connect. We can talk about what your expectations are of your photographer and what you'd like to get out of your session. At this time we will talk about the date, time, and location of your session.

Contract & Invoice

After our initial call, I'll send out a contract for you to review. This will include session information and your printing rights. Once that contract is signed your session is confirmed and on the books. Time to shop for some perfect outfits!

Confirmation

A couple of days before our session I'll reach out via text or email to confirm our session. This is where the final location and times can be confirmed or changed if needed. Now is the time to ask any last-minute questions or submit any shot lists that you might have.

Session

Finally our session day! It will go by quicker than you anticipate and be a lot more fun than you thought! We will shoot for about 45 to 60 minutes and after that, you can follow through on all the bribes you promised the kids!

Gallery Delivery

About two weeks after your session your gallery will be delivered directly to your inbox. Download and save your photos to your computer and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any trouble or have editing questions. I'm always happy to help!

Frequently Asked Questions

First and foremost, wear something that you are comfortable in! No one likes fussing over their clothes at a photoshoot. I usually recommend finding an outfit you love and then building the rest of your family off of that look. Choose colors that complement each other rather than having everyone wear the same color, that way each of your personalities can come through. If you want more information you can find it in my “Preparing for your Best Session” guide.
I do offer mini-sessions a couple of times a year! I have Window Seat sessions that are usually held in the later Winter - these are great sessions to help document your kiddos growing up. I also offer a couple of days of mini-sessions in various locations in the Pacific Northwest in the Fall. To find out when those are offered you can sign up for my email newsletter or follow me on social media.
I have two of my own kids, they are boys, and they are their own brand of a three-ring circus. So I’m used to the energy that kids can bring and it probably phases parents who want a “perfect” session more than it phases me. What I’ve found is that kids are more cooperative at the beginning of our sessions! My goal is to get photos of everyone “looking and smiling” within the first 5 minutes. Then we can let our guard down and enjoy our time a little more since the hard work is already done!
I love working with extended families! While there's an additional fee, each family gets dedicated portrait time along with full group shots. Sessions can last up to 90 minutes.
I love to work with clients to help them find the perfect location for their session. I can help narrow down what look and background might be meaningful for your session and give suggestions based on that. Growing up in Tacoma has some absolute perks knowing this city and the surrounding areas like the back of my hand! If on-location isn’t something that appeals to you, we can talk about what an in-home session would look like for your family. Capturing the personality and love in your own home is an amazing way to frame your family session!
Our common practice these days is to get the link for download however, I encourage my clients to get prints made of their photos! It feels so good to see your lovely faces up on your walls, doesn’t it? If you’d like some recommendations on what to do for print products, you can visit my page exploring after your session options.

Devon has always been the right photographer for the job. Prompt, professional and amazing with clients. We love her flexible attitude, and her eye for the best shot possible. From commercial to portrait or family photos we trust Devon's artistic talents and professionalism to bring our clients products to life.
— Jake, commercial client
I am SO pleased with her work and working with her. She was responsive and straightforward but creative and just easy to spend the day with. She has changed her packages and pricing since we booked her but we had her with a 2nd shooter for 8hours and it was a total steal! We got a preview of our pics SOO quickly and our final edited shots in a timely fashion as well. I still look at our pictures and am so happy and grateful that we found such a gem!
— Amber, event client
My husband and I will be celebrating our 7th wedding anniversary next week. In 7 years, Devon has photographed our wedding, several family sessions, maternity photos, and newborn sessions for both my daughters. There is no one else I would ever choose to photograph my family. She has exceptional talent, makes you feel comfortable, and you will find out quickly that not only is Devon passionate about what she does, but her genuine heart is to capture beautiful moments. Devon has become more than our family photographer, I consider her my friend! I am so thankful for all of the moments she has captured for us, that we will have for years to come. Give her a call!
— Heather, family client
Where to start, booking Devon for our wedding was one of the best things about our day. She is AMAZING to work with, we originally met with her to do an engagement shoot and it was a blast, she made us laugh and captured who we are as a couple perfectly. When the wedding day came she was there at the hotel with her amazing 2nd shooter Lisa who between them captured the girls and the guys getting ready and then both coordinated so that myself and my now husband didn't see each other before the ceremony when we were at the venue taking photos. Once all the nerves of the ceremony had calmed both Devon and Lisa were on top of the family photos and then whisked us away for couples photos and just had fun with the whole thing, making us laugh and you can tell they were 100% invested in getting the best shots. If you want a fun photographer that will not only capture the perfect image, but also can capture the feeling and the emotion of the day Devon is the one to hire!
