Let’s talk about something that might just make your life a whole lot easier: photography memberships. I know what you’re thinking—”Another thing to add to my never-ending to-do list?” But this little thing can make a huge impact on how you preserve your loving family memories and actually make your to-do list shorter.
Between soccer practice, dance recitals, and trying to remember if you turned off the stove, your brain is pretty much at capacity. With a photography membership, you can cross “schedule family photos” off your mental checklist. Once you’re booked, we’ll chat about when you’d like to use your sessions. Then, when the time comes, I’ll reach out to get a date on the calendar and do all the planning. Easy, right?
Who doesn’t love a good deal? With a photography membership, you pay a discounted session fee once and get 3–5 sessions. I also include 25 complimentary holiday cards or birth announcements, plus a discount off artwork after each session. I save prime weekend sessions for my membership clients, too.
Feel like a celebrity (minus the paparazzi) with priority registration for special events. Be the first to know about Motherhood Minis. How about grasping a coveted spot with Santa? As a member, you’ll be first in line for these exclusive photo ops. Less stress about being online at the right time or needing the perfect time slot between naps.
Kids grow up faster than you can say “cheese.” One minute they’re taking their first steps, and the next they’re asking for the car keys. A photography membership ensures you capture all those in-between moments—the transition from baby to toddler, the missing tooth grins, the awkward pre-teen phase (which we’ll all laugh about later), and everything in between.
Ever tried to create a photo wall at home only to realize all your pictures have different styles? With a photography membership, you’ll get a consistent look across all your sessions. This means your albums and wall art will look like they belong together—even if the toddler in the photos refuses to match his outfit to the rest of the family.
One of the best things about membership is that, over time, I’ll get to know your family. I’ll learn that little Timmy always smiles when you mention his favorite superhero, or that Sarah needs a five-minute silly dance warm-up before she’s ready for the camera. This insider knowledge means better, more authentic photos that truly capture your family’s personality.
You might be wondering, “But what if I’m not photogenic?” or “My kids never sit still!” Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. As an Atlanta family photographer, I’ve seen it all—from tantrum-throwing toddlers to camera-shy parents. My job is to make you feel comfortable and capture those real, genuine moments, regardless of what’s happening behind the scenes.
These photos aren’t just for now – they’re for 20 years down the road when your kids are all grown up. They’re for those moments when you’re feeling nostalgic and want to relive the chaos and joy of these early years. They’re for your kids to look back on and see how much they were loved, even when they were being little terrors.
So, what do you say? Ready to make your life a little easier and your walls a lot prettier? Then get your membership and don’t let another year slip by without documenting your family’s journey. As your Atlanta family photographer, I’m here to help you capture these fleeting moments in a way that’s as unique as your family. Let’s create some magic together!
