What's included

  • A planning call — the milestone, the guest list, and the moments you can't miss.
  • Up to two hours of gentle, fly-on-the-wall coverage.
  • Cake smashes, candle wishes, cap tosses — plus the quiet in-betweens.
  • Forty hand-edited images in a private online gallery.
  • A printable birthday or graduation announcement design.

The flow

Party first, photos always

01 — Map

We sketch the day's rhythm — arrivals, the big moment, cake — so I melt into the background and miss nothing.

02 — Mingle

I arrive early, stay unobtrusive, and photograph the party as your guests actually lived it.

03 — Mail

Sneak peeks within 48 hours for thank-you cards, and the full gallery within two weeks.

Good to know

Do you do full event coverage?

These sessions cover intimate milestones up to two hours. For larger events, ask about a custom half-day rate.

What milestones do you photograph most?

First birthdays and cake smashes, preschool and college graduations, baptisms, and big-decade birthdays.

Can we combine it with a family session?

Absolutely — many families fold portraits into the first half hour. Mention it on your quote request for combined pricing.
