Traverse City Family Photography that feel like your family

Why Family Portraits?
Traverse City Family Photography
As Traverse City family photographers, we work hard to create great experiences that create beautiful memories. Whether it is at Sleeping Bear Dunes, a Lake Michigan beach, a forest, downtown Traverse City, or hanging out at your family cabin, we have the same goal, to show your authenticity.
Families are imperfect, families are messy, but that is where the fun is. We embrace it. Keeping it simple with our families is important to us, creating images that embody the real moments that your family lives in. As photographers, we love to hang out with families at their home with their new babies, out in a forest pretending to be gnomes, or running around at the dunes or beach. For family portraits we focus on vibrant energy, and acceptance. If you want a set of just still posed images, we can recommend a lot of other great photographers. If you want to play, let's do it!
Packages start at $500 and are all completely custom.
“Oh full blown crocodile tears all over again from this girl!! You captured us and our families and our love so well. I can’t get over it. As cheesy as it sounds I can’t even pic top 5 because those are all incredible!! The Bug ones are all I dreamed them to be.”
