REMEMBER HOW THIS STAGE FEELS.
Family sessions are an opportunity for connection with each other.
LEELANAU COUNTY FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY
The goal with family sessions isn't perfection. Real life is far more interesting than that. The goal is to remember how it feels to be in this stage, to hold your children when they are exactly this size. As parents, we all know that it goes by quickly, and even the hardest stages have elements that are missed as we watch our babies grow and change. So book the photo session. Run and play and laugh with your family. Make photographs that you can hang on your walls or print into a book to flip through when the kids are older.
Most importantly, family sessions are an opportunity for connection with each other. A time to shut out the rest of the world for a while and focus solely on each other. What a gift.Whether you’re visiting Traverse City on your annual summer vacation or one of the lucky ones who gets to call Leelanau County home, let’s plan a portrait session together that helps you remember everything you love best about this season.
I offer portrait collections for immediate and extended families, with various options available depending on what you envision for your session. Visit my pricing guide for more information, or send me an email to start the conversation!














From Sarah & Brian –
“Mae is a wonderful photographer and I recommend her wholeheartedly. We have hired her for portraits multiple times on our summer trips to Michigan, and every time she blows me away. Her work is so good and also so real, and it's those photos of us just being ourselves that I treasure the most. We have three young children, and she was understanding, patient, and approachable working with us and specifically with them. It's clear she knows how to work with children and help them take the time they need to feel at ease, which has not always been our experience with other photographers. If you are on the fence or just want amazing pictures you will treasure, please book a session with Mae!”
