Capturing special family ties.
These sessions range from small groups, such as parents and their children to grown siblings and their families. Creating your family’s memories is just as important to me because I am passionate about capturing the magic that I see through the lens and live for the joy on your face when your prints are delivered.
From the tiniest newborn to the grandparent who just turned 90, these family photos will be handed down and looked upon for years to come. At Sandy Williams Photography, I will guide you through outfits, colors, groupings to making sure you are all spaced properly for the perfect image.

Things to Consider
For the best results, think of a style you want. Blue jeans and white shirts? Or do you want something more formal? Let me help you with this. I love working with clients to help them create the memories they envision.
- Schedule your session before or right after your toddler’s nap time, preferably after (if there is a toddler involved).
- Are there any triggers or things that might upset your child(ren) that I should be aware of?
- Bring snacks for your kids, as big groups can be time-consuming.
- Bring a brush and chapstick.
- Bring children dressed for the photos, so we do not have to change them at the location. Please, no snacks on the ride to the location.
- Clean hands and faces are a must. Fingernail polish should be chip-free. Please note, nail chips and cuticles can be fixed in post-production, but there is a $5/per photo nail-fix charge.
- Make sure hair ties are not left on the wrists.
- If your child is a little camera shy, play a game with them a day prior to your session by pretending to take pictures and explain what is expected on the day of photos. Most children today are used to their parents pulling out their cell phones to take photos, but a professional photographer with a rather large camera can be intimidating.
- Front pockets should be empty. Cell phones, keys, etc. will need to be set aside or left in the car.
- Cell phones are not permitted during the photo session.
- Prior to your session, contract forms must be signed and the retainer needs to be paid two weeks in advance*.
