Ann Arbor family photography FAQ
Where are the best spots for family photos in Ann Arbor?+
Some of my favorite Ann Arbor family spots are Gallup Park, Nichols Arboretum and Downtown Ann Arbor — places with room for kids to roam so the photos feel like a real afternoon out. If your family has a meaningful spot in Ann Arbor, we can absolutely shoot there too.
What should we wear for a family session in Ann Arbor?+
I send every family a styling guide, but the short version: coordinate rather than match, pick two or three complementary colors, and dress for the season. Comfortable kids make for the happiest photos.
How do family sessions with young kids work?+
We keep things moving — walking, playing, and following the kids' lead instead of forcing stiff poses. It's a relaxed, fun experience built around genuine connection, and I have plenty of tricks for coaxing out real smiles.
