Family sessions are so very special! My goal when photographing your family session is to document the love and connection you have. These sessions can be done in studio or at an outdoor location.
Celebrating the beauty
The Family Experience
We've chatted and you feel we're a great fit, yay I'm so excited! The next step is to get you on my calendar! Sessions can take place at my Lansdale studio or at an outdoor location. Next up, I'll send you my availability as well as the contract and invoice for the retainer!
Lastly, I'll send you a questionnaire and this is where the fun planning begins! I also send a Client Experience Guide. My clients love this detailed guide, it talks about everything from wardrobe to walking you through the entire process from pre session, what to expect during the session and reminders of what you can expect after!

After you've submitted the questionnaire, I take over from there! I'll be busy planning all the things in relation to your session!
My Session Experience Guide will most likely answer most, if not all of your questions. However, I'm more than happy to answer any questions you have along the way! Shoot me an email or ask me to give you a call!
Keeping In Touch
Step 3 of 5
Finally, today is the day! I always suggest on session day, to make a day of it! Pamper yourself with a full makeover before your session and make sure your hair is just how you like it! Whatever makes you feel like your most happy and beautiful self, do it up! This is a wonderful way to relax, so treat yourself and make the whole day an experience!
I don't do "stuff" family poses, my goal is to provide you with candid memories you will forever cherish. I want you to look back at these images and feel the love that is shared between you and your family! So sit back, relax and get ready to make some memories!

In about 5 business days, your online proofing gallery will be on its way to your email! This will be a private gallery where you'll review the best images of the day! You can expect to see about 40 images. At that time, you will pick which collection of images you would like to purchase!
Once I receive your order, I will then finish editing the images you selected and send you a new gallery with your high resolution files that have all been hand edited. All of my collections include print credit, so at this time you can view my shop and see what artwork you would like to purchase!

If you're coming with a significant other or older children, we get everyone involved! I'll be guiding you through a series of poses with prompts to capture a wide variety of images for you to choose from. We will be using two different backdrops and you have the option to wear up to 3 outfits during the session. The session will last up to an hour, so I'll have plenty of time to create a wide variety for you to choose from!

ARTWORK FOR THE HOME
Finding the right photographer can be a daunting task, I hope by writing this review that I can provide you with enough information that you can stop your search with Laura!
Laura was nothing but amazing during our tree farm family session and a cake smash session! Her instructions and recommendations to prepare families from outfits to keeping your little ones engaged was so helpful! Laura was patient, friendly, and so personable. As far as the pictures... well she nailed it! She was able to capture everything we were hoping for and more.
Please book with her, so you could have the same great experience we had!

I cannot say enough good things about our newborn photoshoot experience with Laura! Our son was born in January and we decided at the last minute that we wanted newborn photos. Within one day of reaching out to her, we had a session booked the following week and a packet of information to help prepare us for the big day!
From the moment we arrived at her studio, she made us feel comfortable and at ease. When our baby became fussy, she swooped in and performed her magic and instantly soothed him back to sleep. Not only was our in-person experience great but her follow-up communication was also timely and detailed. We were never left guessing on next steps or what to expect.

Laura was so awesome to collaborate with & she really gave us our money’s worth. She captured all of the looks we dreamed up and much more. We left feeling like she gave us so much time without feeling rushed and so many more looks than most photographers give. In the end we were so happy with all of the pictures we got of our new baby & family. Highly recommend!!

We used Laura for an extended family photo session over the holidays. My parents recently hung all the photos we printed, and they completely changed the vibe of the room! I honestly felt like I was at a brand new house for a second. It brought light and warmth into my childhood home.
I would add that Laura managed the toddler and infant grand children expertly.

We first met Laura when my son was 2 weeks old. She took the most precious newborn photos and I knew I wanted her to capture his other milestones as well! After that, she photographed him at 6 months and 1 year - we just adore all of the photos. We have also used Laura for holiday photos and especially enjoyed the Santa session this past holiday season.
Laura is so friendly and fun to work with. She puts a lot of thought and effort into the photo set ups and capturing your little one's personality. We have been so happy with our photos from Laura and will treasure them forever. We truly cannot recommend Laura McCarney Photograhy enough!

Laura is absolutely amazing!!! She has been capturing beautiful photos of our growing family since our first newborn shoot of our 4 year old daughter. Laura’s talent and eye for detail is unmatched. She is truly an artist at what she does! We are always extremely pleased not only with our photos, but our experience with her. Each booking gets better and better! We love Laura!
Krista
Highly recommend working with Laura! She was so wonderful with our 3 kids, even when the baby was not the most cooperative. She has a knack for getting kids to smile and interact with each other to get truly beautiful pictures. I loved the direction she was able to give all of us, her patience, and most of all the beautiful photos we received. Her studio is beautiful and has everything you need for those newborn shots and family photos as well, such a comfortable and accommodating space. I cannot recommend Laura enough and I'm so grateful for the experience we had. I can't wait to work with her again in the future!

We have absolutely loved our experiences with Laura! We used her for our daughters newborn session, pictures with Santa and cake smash! Laura is so patient and always captures the best shots of our kiddos! We can’t wait to see her again in a few short weeks for our daughters first birthday session!

We had a wonderful experience with Laura....twice! She did an in home newborn session for us two years ago and just recently photographed our new family of four in her beautiful, comfortable studio in Lansdale. Laura is truly a baby whisperer! She is calm and patient and makes the stress of getting a family ready for a photo shoot a few days after giving birth totally worth it. She puts thought into your session with outfits, colors, and set ups based upon a questionnaire. She sends your gallery in a timely fashion and you won't be disappointed with the images she captures.

Laura recently photographed a spring photo session of my six month old. My experience was great from start to finish! Leading up to the session, Laura's communication was professional, responsive, and thorough. Her studio is clean and calming, and she has many props and tools on hand to bring your vision to life. Laura was so friendly and made us feel comfortable the whole time we were in her studio. She was also amazing with my baby and got some big smiles from him in a variety of setups. Following the session, Laura's process for gallery delivery and photo selection was easy and straightforward. We are so happy with how the pictures turned out and highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for photos of their kids/family!
