Let's start with what Adventure Family Photography is NOT!  Adventure Family Photography does not take place in a stuffy studio, it does not involve a bunch of stiff posing and fake smiles.  It will not feel awkward or stressful. Instead, Adventure Family Photography is a fun outing with your family where I capture your family's personality, the special moments you share and the excitement during exploration of the beautiful outdoors of the great Northwest!  There will be rock skipping, hiking, boulder climbing, wading in the water, and lots of giggles.  All the while, I will be capturing this phase of your family's journey, including your little's whispy curls, dimples, the baby teeth, the "in-between" moments and so much more.  

Why do this kind of family photo session? I have learned through the years with my own boys, some of the most precious photographs, the ones I hang on the walls, are the ones that capture the essence of my boys.... They are exploring and creating and digging and running and building and wandering, not staring at a camera with a fake smile pasted on their faces.  In fact, my rambunctious boys will hardly stand still long enough to look at a camera. It just is not in them, and many other kids are the same.  That does not mean you cannot get a stunning family photograph for that Christmas card!  Trust me to give you and your little ones a fun adventure with a beautiful gallery of images not only for your Christmas card but for that spot above your mantel!

What is Adventure Family Photography and is it for my family?
