Maria did an incredible job for our first family pictures! She did what I asked (to keep it natural and bright) and exceeded my expectations. She also knew exactly how to keep our 6 month engaged and smiling throughout the whole shoot. My husband and I don't always do well in front of a camera but Maria made us feel comfortable and natural!

Favorite family photo spots in Novi

Novi family photography FAQ

Where are the best spots for family photos in Novi?+

Some of my favorite Novi family spots are Lakeshore Park, Rotary Park and Maybury State Park (nearby) — places with room for kids to roam so the photos feel like a real afternoon out. If your family has a meaningful spot in Novi, we can absolutely shoot there too.

What should we wear for a family session in Novi?+

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.
