      Children Portraits

Time passes fast but memories of childhood last forever! 
Even better if captured in lovely photos! I would love to portray your little ones
in a stress-free photo session that you would enjoy with them! 

​

 

As a photographer, my goal is to keep the kids comfortable during the session without stressing them, so if they do not feel to pose, I can capture candid shots of them playing and exploring...

but I see children who enjoyed being the star of the day and having fun with poses!

We can arrange an outdoor session or one in the comfort of your home.

Let's talk about what your child likes and if there are some activities or toys she/he would like to be portrayed with, and schedule your photo session!

Newborns

go to...Newborns Portraits

For dedicated newborn sessions, for babies from a few days to a few weeks old,  

You can find more details about kids sessions below, but first,

to have a better idea of the outcome, 

 let's get a look to some of the photos from my previous sessions!

Why is there a selected number of pictures? Can I just have the pictures taken during the session without the editing?                         

​When you hire a professional, you want to be certain of a good outcome. With packages that include the selected shots, you can be more sure of the value and quality of the product you purchase. Selected photos mean that you will have the vantage of the Quality over Quantity formula. The photographer will have more time to work on every single picture, with all those little adjustments that transform a snapshot into photography. Editing is a fundamental part of the process, necessary to obtain the look that you see and search in professional photos. Every photographer has his/her own standards and I do value an accurate editing on each singular photo, so I do not just apply standard presets to the gallery. This care of details is translated in time of post-production, so your investment is proportioned not only to the time of the photosession, but also to the time necessary to deliver to you a final, professional product.   

 

 Nonetheless, if you like the pics in the preview as they are and/or you are on a budget, I am available to offer photos with basic adjustments only, at a lower price than the normal add-on ones, if the unedited photos match standards of quality already (example: good natural lighting, tidy background). My main goal is that you will be happy with the pictures received and their value.

​

Photographers usually do not release the raw (aka "Out of Camera") photos because they are, as the name says, "raws": nor do they shoot directly in JPG, because they want to have control over the file that years of practice and their expertise allow them to manage. To put this in a contest, an example is a common scenario: if you go to a nice restaurant, you want and expect the chef to prepare and cook the meal for you, you do not want grocery bags of raw food or a frozen meal on your plate. You want to treat yourself to the experience of a special, handmade dinner. So, be assured that by hiring a photographer who cares for the details, you are investing in a final artistic product and that you will receive photos elevated from the normal snapshot, with the value that professional and tailored editing adds to your photos.

​

Who selects the best photos? Can I pick my favorites to be edited within the investment of the package purchased?

​

Yes, if you purchased Silver or Gold options, you can pick your favorite photos of the session from the online gallery preview, and I will edit those you like most. (For the Platinum options all the good pics are already included).

For the Minis (Jade option) you will already see a preselection of the best shots in your online gallery as a preview.

The full gallery for Minis will be released if you decide to upgrade the package after having seen the preview.

If you prefer, I can always make a selection of the best one for you, and I will take care to provide you with a good variety of pictures according to the session - the best ones for each different setting.
