the candid experience

 Real moments. Genuine smiles. Beautifully unscripted.

Activity-Based Portrait Photography

The Candid Experience is a different approach to portrait photography, perfect for families, couples, and friends who want something different than posed or prompted photos.

We create relaxed, playful sessions that let you be fully present, filled with natural laughter, genuine connection, and spontaneous moments. These aren’t just photos. They’re real memories, beautifully captured.

Choose Your Experience

Whether you want to get messy, stay cozy, run barefoot by the water, or dream up something totally your own, we’ve got you covered.

The Messy
One

Let loose and get a little wild—think paint fight, shaving cream wiffle ball, or any other beautiful mess that’s imperfect yet totally worth it.

The Connection

Snuggles on the couch, stories by the fire, or silly Q&A’s with the ones you love most. This one’s all about togetherness (not just for the couples).

Sand, ocean breeze, and golden light. Perfect for sunrise swims, sunset hangs, or relaxed time with your favorite people. Playful, easygoing, and present.

The One You
Create

Got another idea? Backyard campout, sunrise hike, pillow fight—we’re all ears. We’ll help bring your unique vision to life in a way that feels true to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Candid Experience is a lifestyle photography session designed to capture real, unscripted moments with your family, partner, or friends. Instead of stiff, posed shots, we create a relaxed, fun environment where genuine smiles, laughter, and memories shine through.

Wear what feels like “you”! Comfortable, neutral, or earthy tones tend to photograph beautifully and keep the focus on your faces and connection. We’ll happily help you with styling suggestions if you’d like guidance beforehand.

Yes! We offer sessions within 35 miles at no extra charge. For locations beyond that, travel fees may apply. If you have a dream spot in mind, just let us know and we’ll make it happen!

Most Candid Experience sessions last between 60–90 minutes, depending on the package and vibe you choose. We don’t rush—our goal is to let moments unfold naturally.

If the weather won’t cooperate (and the vibe isn’t supposed to be rainy or messy!), we’ll gladly reschedule your session at no charge. Flexibility is part of the Candid Experience.

That’s part of the magic! We expect wiggles, giggles, and real-life unpredictability—that’s what makes these photos special. There’s no pressure for perfect behavior; we roll with the chaos and capture the beauty in it.

Absolutely! That’s what “The One You Create” package is for. Whether it’s a backyard campout, a boat ride at sunrise, or something totally offbeat—we love helping you bring your vision to life.

You’ll receive a fully edited online gallery within 3 weeks of your session. Rush delivery options are available for an additional fee if needed.
