Let’s talk details
I offer two types of family photography experiences:
Family Adventure Sessions & Family Portrait Sessions.
*Interested in having me photograph an upcoming event? Scroll down for Event details.
FAMILY ADVENTURE SESSIONS
Family Adventure Sessions tell the story of your family - exactly as you are today.
In a 3-hour session, I’ll shoot documentary-style (meaning I won’t pose you or ask you to do anything for the camera) to capture the fun, spontaneous moments in your family’s everyday adventures.
We’ll work together to pick a favorite family activity - a morning exploring your favorite local haunts, an afternoon at the beach, or even a lazy Sunday making pancakes and playing in your backyard.
Your family can enjoy your time together with minimal interaction from me. I’ll find and capture all of the moments - big and little - that you want to remember. The ones that make your people exactly who they are.
Family Adventure Session Investment: $850
Inclusions:
3-hour on-location photography session, documenting a favorite family activity
Minimum of 100 high-resolution, digital images, displayed in a private online gallery
Pre-session consultation
Custom-designed keepsake album
Prints available for an additional fee
Up for an even bigger adventure? I’m available for full-day sessions throughout the San Diego area.
If you’ve got an awesome idea, let’s make it happen!
family portrait sessions
Family Portrait Sessions are my fun, laid-back version of traditional family photos, minus the matching outfits and stiff, awkward poses.
During a 1-hour session, I’ll guide your family into natural, comfortable interactions that will encourage connections and highlight everybody’s personalities.
We’ll play, be weird, goof around and laugh a ton while you focus on enjoying each other as a family.
I’ll also be sure to grab a few classic family shots - the “ones for grandma” - during the session.
Family Portrait Session Investment: $600
Inclusions:
1-hour photography session for up to 6 family members*
Minimum of 50 high-resolution, digital images, displayed in a private online gallery
Pre-session consultation
Prints and albums available for an additional fee
*Extended family sessions (more than 6 family members) are available for an additional fee.

My Promise to You
When you choose a photographer, you invite them into your life to capture your family’s memories. That is an honor that I take very seriously. I’ll make sure that you have a fantastic experience throughout the process.
Not only will your session be designed and guided by me (an experienced pro!), but I’ll make the whole process easy and stress-free from start to finish.
My sessions are all-inclusive.
Your session fee includes your photography session, plus a gallery of high-resolution digital images, which are yours to keep forever and print as you like. All of my bookings are handled with easy online contracts, invoices, and payment options. Your final images will be delivered within 3 weeks of your session. You can order professional prints directly from your online image gallery.
You can always expect quick follow-up and timely communication from me.
Once your session is booked, we’ll schedule a consultation (phone, video chat, or in-person) where I’ll walk through your session, review all the details, and answer all of your questions.
You can feel confident working with me! I’m a member of Professional Photographers of America. I’m also fully licensed and insured.
For all sessions, a 50% retainer is due at the time of booking to secure your session date.
For sessions that are more than 25 miles outside of the 92128 zip code, there is a $50 travel fee.
Due to uncertainly surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic, I am now reserving all 2020 session dates deposit-free.

I’d love to learn more about you and your family. Let’s talk about the memories you want to capture.
“We loved working with Sharon! She made it easy on us as parents and fun for our kids. She gave us beautiful portraits of our family, and captured so many sweet moments of us with our children that we cherish.”
