Hi there! I'm Emily.
I’m Emily, the heart behind Emily Caroline Photography. I started this journey a few years ago when I realized how powerful photography could be. Inspired by my friends and family and wanting to capture their growing families and special moments, I felt a deep desire to preserve those fleeting memories. But it wasn’t until my son was born that my passion for photography truly blossomed. His first moments were magical, and I wanted to preserve those memories forever. That experience lit a fire in me to help others capture the magic in their own lives.
Photography is my creative outlet—it’s where I can pour my heart into something that brings joy to others. My goal is to make every session feel natural and fun while ensuring that you feel comfortable. I know firsthand how easy it is for moms to be *behind* the camera, so I make sure to include you in the photos, too. After all, you’re a part of the beautiful story unfolding in front of the lens!
When you book with me, you can expect a relaxed and enjoyable experience. I specialize in a mix of posed and candid lifestyle moments. While I guide you with gentle prompts for posed shots, I absolutely love capturing those in-between moments when you’re just being yourselves—laughing, playing, and connecting as a family. These are the moments that truly tell your story.
I understand that planning a photo session can be a little stressful, so I’ve created a streamlined process to make things as easy as possible for you. From our first inquiry to receiving your gallery, I aim to take the stress off your shoulders, so you can simply enjoy the experience with your loved ones.
Here’s what you can expect when you book a session with me:
1. Inquiry & Booking: The process begins with a quick inquiry where we’ll chat about your vision for the session. Once we’ve decided on the details, we’ll finalize your booking!
2. Questionnaire: To ensure I capture exactly what you have in mind, I’ll send you a brief questionnaire. This helps me learn about your family, style, and any special moments you’d like to incorporate.
3. Session Planning: Together, we’ll pick the perfect location and schedule a time that works best for you and your family.
4. Style Guide: A few days before your session, I’ll send you a style guide to help you choose outfits and get prepared for the big day!
5. Pre-session Reminder: I’ll send a friendly reminder before the session to confirm all the details, so everything goes smoothly.
6. The Session: On the day of the session, I’ll guide you through poses, and we’ll have fun capturing both posed and candid moments of your family. You can relax and enjoy being together.
7. Follow-up: After the session, I’ll send a follow-up email about what to expect next and provide a sneak peek of your photos on Instagram a few days later.
8. Gallery Delivery: Once the images are edited with care, I’ll send you a full gallery where you can choose the photos you love most based on your package. You’ll also have the option to purchase additional images or the full gallery at a special discount.
My goal is to make every session feel like a celebration of your story—one that you’ll cherish for years to come. I can’t wait to work with you and capture the memories that matter most.
