Seattle Family Photography Portfolio

“Lana is the best! We have used her for family photos multiple times now and her photos always turn out gorgeous, we are so lucky to have all of these special moments documented! Couldn’t recommend her more!” –Kalena

I believe that family photo shoots should not be complicated but easy and enjoyable so that anyone can document their family’s journey through the years. My photography style is natural, relaxed, and family-centered. There will never be any pressure to stand still, look into the camera and smile. Instead, we’ll go to a picturesque location where you’ll have fun with your family while I capture authentic interactions to get you beautiful photos you’ll love.

Below is a diverse collection of my lifestyle outdoor family photography that’ll give you a sense of my style to make sure it’s the right fit for you. The photos are grouped by session type. You may scroll through the entire gallery or jump to a particular service:

What you can expect from your family session with me:

Spring family photo shoot in Seattle, dad playing with his two sons at Washington Park Arboretum

Enjoyable, smooth experience

My process is easy from start to finish. Booking only takes a few minutes (pick a day, time and fill out a short booking form). Then, to help you get ready for your session, I provide an outfit guide, an online styling service, and helpful tips for getting prepared.

Relaxed sessions

During the session, I aim to create a fun experience for your family. If your kiddo is not cooperating, don’t worry! I will follow their lead and do my best to capture authentic, happy moments.

There will never be any pressure to look into the camera to smile. Instead, we will go on a “treasure hunt” to focus on natural family interactions. I have plenty of tricks to help get your kiddos engaged and interested. (I’ve photographed countless families over 15 years and have probably seen every introverted and extroverted kid out there.)

Beautiful photos

I specialize in detailed editing while maintaining a natural look because I know these photos will be your family’s heirloom for years to come. And you can always count on a fast turnaround (seven days) to get your final photos.

Simply put, Lana is amazing! She sent us a lot of helpful information on how to choose outfits and what to expect on the day of the photoshoot. Our kids were less than cooperative, and Lana still managed to get so many great shots. We just enjoyed our time with her!
