Family photography is about preserving the heartbeat of your story. Not polished poses or picture perfect smiles, but the soul of who you are together. It’s the way your child’s tiny hand reaches for yours, the warmth of a shared laugh, and the quiet magic of simply being present with the people you love most. These fleeting moments deserve to be captured in a way that feels as beautiful as they truly are. When you look back, it won’t be the perfect poses you remember, it will be the love, the joy, and the connection that makes your family unique.

The Family Experience
A family session is so much more than just showing up and smiling for the camera. It’s a chance to slow down, to really see each other, and to hold space for the joy and chaos that make your family yours. Imagine a golden evening where your kids are free to twirl, giggle, and climb into your arms, and you get to just be... no pressure, no awkward poses, just love captured in its purest form.
I’ll gently guide you, but mostly, I’ll let your connection lead the way. By the end of our time together, you’ll have beautiful images, yes. But more than that, you’ll walk away with a memory tucked in your heart. Something real. Something lasting.
Capturing a moment that's gone forever
Let’s connect to see if I’m the right fit for your family and if I have space on my calendar. I take a limited number of sessions each month so I can give each one my full energy and care. My family sessions are relaxed, fun, and totally stress-free — no pressure for perfect smiles or stiff poses. We focus on real connection, honest moments, and a whole lot of love. These sessions take place outdoors from May through October, always at golden, glowing sunset.
1. Say Hello
My shooting evenings are Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at sunset. There is a $100 retainer due at booking to secure your slot. The remainder is due the day before your session.
2. Schedule it
Once you've booked officially, I send over What to Expect guide. It talks about how the session works, what we do, what we don't do. It also goes over littles handling a later session.
I also send over a style guide to help you look your best. You can always reach out to me for help on styling at any point before your session and I'm happy to send links to some beautiful pieces as well!
A couple weeks out from your session, I send you a questionnaire to help me plan your session and get to know you a little bit.
3. Planning it
These sessions are truly as laid back as they come. I’ll gently guide you with prompts and direction so nothing ever feels forced. My goal is to bring out the real connection between you and the people you love most. Sessions typically last around 40 to 60 minutes — just enough time to soak in the magic without feeling rushed.
4. Your Session
Once our session concludes, we have two options for reviewing your images: we can either meet up at my studio for a personalized viewing experience, or you can opt for the convenience of online viewing from the comfort of your own home. The choice is yours—whichever suits your style and schedule best.

The Investment Details
I have had the pleasure of working with Trish since my son was 6 months old she has captured every milestone. My friends and family always make fun of me for the amount of pictures I get taken by her but honestly, she never ceases to amaze me! Her photography is truly a work of art every single picture she taken for us I absolutely adore. Trish is absolutely, amazingly talented and so easy to connect with. I have recommended her countless times and will continue to do so . If you book with Trish, you will not be disappointed!!!!

“Lulu Belle Photography has photographed some of the best photos of my family. Trish is amazing and has special skills that somehow make her get the best photos of even the most uncooperative children. She has photographed our daughter’s newborn session as well as two family sessions and I have already booked her for baby #2’s newborn session. Our most recent family session, I did not go in with high expectations. My two year old was not in the greatest mood but somehow Trish got my favorite family photos to date and did it in 20 minutes! I can not wait for our next session with her."

She has been photographing our grandchildren for five years and we cherish the heirloom quality memories that she has created for our family. I highly recommend Lulu Belle for all of your photography needs. Trish is warm and welcoming and will make you feel completely at home."
