She is full of knowledge on tones and angles and lighting… I am stunned at the joy she was able to capture in a 30 minute session with a very fickle toddler

Emily handled our family of 20 amazingly with ages from 3-80… The turnaround time was only a few days and the pictures came out beautiful.

**please note that your session will not be officially booked until you purchase your package, by clicking on "book this session" in the packages above. This calendar is just to show what times are currently available.
You are so not alone — most of the families, couples, and even grandparents I photograph feel a little unsure at first.
But here’s the thing: you don’t need to “know how to pose” or be a model to get beautiful photos. I’ll guide you the whole way with gentle direction and fun prompts so nothing ever feels forced.
My job is to make this easy, comfortable, and actually enjoyable (yes, even for the photo-haters out there 😉). Within a few minutes, most people forget the camera is even there — and just focus on what matters most: being together.
TL;DR: I got you. Let’s make it feel like you — not a photoshoot.
It depends on the session you choose — here’s a quick breakdown:
Spruce: Includes 3 high-resolution images of your choice from a curated online gallery (you can upgrade to the full gallery if you fall in love with more — which happens a lot 😉).
Balsam: Includes the full gallery of 20–30 edited, high-res images.
Noble Fir: Includes a full gallery of 50+ high-res images, perfect for telling a deeper story and including more people or outfit changes.
No matter which session you choose, you’ll get beautifully edited images delivered in an online gallery — ready to download, print, and share.
Your full gallery will be delivered within 5–7 days of your session — plenty of time for holiday cards, gifts, or just soaking in the magic of this season.
If you book the Noble Fir session, you’ll also receive a sneak peek within 24 hours — so you can start swooning (and maybe even texting grandma a preview 😉) while the rest are finishing up!
Everything is delivered through an easy-to-use online gallery where you can download, share, or shop for prints.
Don’t stress — I’ve got you covered on both! 🙌 Once you book, you’ll receive my Holiday Style Guide with outfit tips, color palettes, and easy ideas to help everyone feel confident and look amazing. Whether you want to go full festive (hello, plaid and velvet 🎄) or keep things neutral and timeless, I’ll help you find what works best.
You’ll also get my Location Guide with a few hand-picked studio and outdoor spots around Tulsa that photograph beautifully — so your vibe and outfits all feel cohesive.
Still unsure? You can always send me your outfit options or questions. I LOVE helping you feel excited and relaxed before the session even starts.
Yes — as long as we have the time and space to do it well! ❤️
If you’re hoping to include grandparents, siblings, cousins, or multi-generational groupings, I recommend booking the Balsam or Noble Fir sessions. These options offer more time and flexibility to keep things relaxed (and make sure no one feels rushed or squished together). The Spruce session is just 10 minutes and is best for immediate families or couples — it’s short and sweet by design!
Not sure which session is best for your crew? Send me a quick message — I’m happy to help you choose the right fit.

Emily was soo wonderful to work with. The photos she captured of our family will be treasured forever, and it took her literally 10min to get them! The goal was to get 2-3 photos that we loved, and we ended up loving every single one in the album. Even my husband commented "I don't know what you spent on these, but whatever it was -- it's worth it"Even my husband commented, ‘I don’t know what you spent on these, but whatever it was—it’s worth it.’”
