whether it's just the two of you or four generations, families make my world go 'round
In another life, I'm a mom of six, playing taxi to football games and ballet. Chaos and kiddos make my world go 'round and it's an honor to be entrusted with yours.
Creating an experience that feels like play for your kids, ease for you, and kind to your partner is the whole goal.
Offerings below are for families of all kinds and sizes, and if anyone has special needs or needs some support, please let us know and we'll do all we can for you.

FAQ
How far will you travel? And does it change the price?
Is the moon an answer? Because I'd go. Seriously though, happy to discuss travel anywhere on the earth (or space) you'd like! Fees begin at 31 miles from Downtown Raleigh, NC and are custom quoted. Glad to do all I can!
Are there items to add-on?
Absolutely! For more than six people, there's an additional fee of $55 per person. This is added to the session fee. There are also print credits, surprises, someone paid for a mascot once, we've gone and picked up 28 balloons! You dream it, we can do it.
These will be used for my business marketing. Is that ok?
In most cases, business or commercial sessions are priced and handled quite differently, as we want to represent your venture well! Feel free to get in touch with anything specific and I'm glad to talk through it.
Our family has a member who needs some additional support. How do we go about that?
Absolutely. Making sure everyone feels seen and valued is the highest priority. Kids with ADHD, seniors with a mobility need, you name it, we'll help. Just get in touch.
"As someone who generally dislikes having my photo taken, working with Amaris is always easy! She has a true gift for making you feel comfy and somehow manages to get the best photos of our kids. I love how she remembers the little details each year, and she always works around our crazy hectic schedule. All in all she's amazing!!"

STEP 01
Fill out the form
Click 'Say Hi' in the top right hand corner, OR scroll to the bottom and fill out that one. Both go to the same place!
Easy peasy - just like that.
STEP 02
we'll reach out
Once you've submitted a form, we'll get in touch just as soon as we can. Typically, a text starts the conversation and then we move to a phone call. Once we chat and are ready to get scheduled, you'll receive an agreement and an invoice.
STEP 03
Picture time
The fun part! Once everything is signed and submitted, you'll receive a next steps email. Then, a couple of weeks before our time together, an email with your details. Then, it's photo day! You bring the sass and I'll bring the camera.
STEP 04
Delivering photos
Sneak peeks go out within 72 hours, but faster if we can! Full galleries deliver around the three week mark. Need them to you faster? Rush fees can be added to expedite things and rush options are dependent on season. Just chat with us to see what's possible.
"Working with Amaris is like walking nervously into a restaurant for a first date, and then having the guy say, “You look amazing, and I’m so excited to hang out with you. Are you comfortable? Tell me your favorite Muppet movie, your dream vacation, and your best conspiracy theory.” And then he listens to everything you say, has excellent comedic timing, and makes sure you get home safely."
