I'm here to make your experience as easy and stress free as possible - from the booking process, to your final gallery, and everything in between! I give you a unique experience, a laughter-filled session, and photos that capture you and your family beautifully, and exactly as they are.
1. STRESS FREE EXPERIENCE
After you book with me, I have you fill out a questionnaire to help plan your dream session! We'll choose a location together - whether we decide to walk through downtown, have a sunset beach session, or get comfortable in your home. I’m also more than willing to help you coordinate your outfits for the setting!
2. LOCATION AND WARDROBE
During your session I will guide you through poses and prompts that are perfectly unposed while still being connected to showcase you and your family beautifully. My specialty is making you feel relaxed, and I will direct you in a way that feels natural - no stiff or awkward poses here! I want you to focus on the each other, the hand holding, the sweet snuggles and all the little moments in between.
3. NATURAL & RELAXED DIRECTION
I know you’re so excited to see your photos! I take pride in each and every image. They are artistically edited and perfected one by one. Once you receive your gallery, you will be prompted to select your favorites included in your package or choose to purchase additional images. You will also be able to choose prints and products through my professional printing lab insuring the best possible printing quality.
4. YOUR FINAL GALLERY
Life moves too quickly and our kids only stay this big for a short time. I’m inspired by laid back families who believe in slowing down, capturing the real and honest moments, and value beautiful images that show their unique love, personalities, and connection.
Family sessions with Alyssa Kathleen Photography feature authentic images, capturing the in between moments and genuine emotions of those you love. Family sessions generally begin with the more posed portraits, and after we capture the classic images our session will become more relaxed to give you a chance to have fun and enjoy each other as I take more candid, prompted photographs.
I absolutely love capturing expecting mothers and reminding them how beautiful and appreciated they are. Whether you’re a new mama-to-be with a beautiful growing belly or you just want a session where you are behind the frame with your little ones- it brings me such joy to capture that love, beauty and connection. Maternity sessions feature the expecting mama and can include family or a significant other. The location can be in-home or a beautiful location outdoors that has meaning to you.

Newly engaged, celebrating a milestone, or just wanting to make some memories - these sessions are for celebrating you and the one you love.

Bringing your baby home is such an exciting and emotional time! This session is relaxed and I do not pose your newborn in unnatural positions, nor do I use props.
Instead, I focus on capturing your infant as they are, all the little details, and your connection and love as parents. It is also the perfect time to introduce siblings! This session takes place in the comfort of your home with immediate family.

Sure do! I have large selection of both traditional body hugging maternity gowns that enhance your baby bump, as well as flowy bump-friendly dresses if you prefer a more natural look. Click here to view the client closet!
I'm so glad you asked! I know how stressful trying to plan outfits can be, and it's one less thing I want you to have to worry about. Not only do I send a style guide to every client on booking, I also include an additional online styling service to help you pick out coordinating clothing pieces for the whole family should you need extra help.
I keep a number of backup dates open each month in case of bad weather, and there is no fee to reschedule to a new date if it’s raining or overcast. Sudbury weather is notoriously unpredictable and changes very quickly, so I typically wait to call off a session until the morning of. Sunshine is a huge component of my style, and it’s definitely worth waiting for a beautiful day!
It can be totally normal to feel this way leading up to your session. Believe it or not, pretty much EVERYONE tells me this, and it never turns out to be true! I'll always coach your through your session, and I have a lot of tricks up my sleeve to keep you and your family looking natural! And when you’re having a great time, you’ll look more beautiful than you thought was possible. I promise!
Oh heck yes! I'll never say no to bringing along your four legged family members should you wish to include them in some of the the session. Be sure to bring their leash and favourite treats!
Unless you're wanting an in-home session, all sessions are held outdoors. I have multiple favourite locations throughout Sudbury and the surrounding areas. Once we've booked in your session you'll receive a questionnaire where you'll have the opportunity let me know what kind of landscapes you prefer and I can give you suggestions from there.
The best thing you can do is to let go and enjoy! I know it’s hard not to be stressed before your session, but kids pick up on anxiety really easily. We’ll have the best chance at getting gorgeous images if we let them happen naturally (with a little guidance from me, of course!) I want your pictures to be amazing and I'll do all the hard work for you! Your only job is to relax, have fun, and love on your kids and significant other.
Kids are kids, and I fully expect them to act like kids during the session. Please don't expect them to sit quietly and follow every direction - it's unrealistic and will only cause you stress. I always approach the session as a new friend who’s just there to play and have a good time. I have all the patience in the world, and I find that being easy-going translates to happy kids and the best images.
