A family portrait experience your kids will

The Family Experience
If you are looking for a family photographer that will grow with your family and be there every step of the way, you’ve come to the right place! Family sessions typically take place outdoors at a location that we will work together to choose. You are invited to check out the Client Closet, work closely with my stylist to plan outfits for your family, and have the option to add-on hair and make-up services to look and feel your best!

Frequently asked questions
How far in advance do you book family sessions?
How far in advance do you book family sessions?
Believe it or not, I book family sessions a year in advance. Most of my returning families lock in their retainer in November during my pre-Black Friday promotion. When we are 3 months ahead of their desired session date, I reach out to them to lock in a date. I suggest reaching out as soon as you know you want to book a session since I have limited availability, especially on weekends.
What if my kids don’t cooperate?
What if my kids don’t cooperate?
Remember, when you book a family session with me, we’re not testing your kids’ on their behavior. I completely take the wheel and will lead you and your family through a true experience where your kiddos will be so busy having a fun family experience that behavior won’t be a concern.
How long is a family session?
How long is a family session?
A typical family session is about an hour. That is typically more than enough time to get what we need. That being said, there is always flexibility if we need a snack break or to run to the bathroom.
What if my partner hates doing pictures?

"We recently had our second family session with Sharon and
Jenna
1 / 10
we were yet again blown away by the entire experience.
From her expert outfit planning, to making the journey to join us at our beach for photos, Sharon created a relaxed, fun environment from beginning to end. The photos we received were beyond what I could have imagined! She captured our family perfectly!!"
"First, scheduling was super easy through her website. Sharon is very communicative from booking and up until picture day.
Nicole
We have two small children and somehow Sharon had them smiling and laughing the whole time feeling like they were playing and not working for photos.
The fact that Sharon used to be a teacher was beyond beneficial in your kids taking an active and fun part in getting great photos. I received the pictures and couldn’t believe how many amazing shots she was able to capture of us knowing how difficult it can be to get kids to cooperate. I am already looking forward to booking with Sharon next year and I cannot recommend Sharon and her team more for your next family photo shoot."

"Sharon is an absolute gem! It has been 3.5 years since I found her and since then she has captured the most adorable and perfect pictures of my two sons and our family.
From newborn sessions, cake smashes and family photos, not one detail has ever been overlooked. Her process is seamless and she makes everything so accessible and easy.
She offers so many options for photo opportunities and has perfected a style that really is timeless! She was so wonderful with each of my children when they were newborns, that it made the experience so worth it! Couldn’t recommend enough!"

"I am so happy to have had Sharon capture photos of my family. She was so easy to work with, from scheduling to planning and coordinating, she could not have made the process more simple. She showed up on the day-of super prepared, with a whole wagon full of stuff just in case, including snacks for my kids!
Kim
She worked so well with my children: she truly understands that children are going to get bored fast and she worked around their moods perfectly.
I love that she captured my kids' candid smiles, and not just the posed ones. To top it off, the final product was beyond my expectations and delivered in under a week! You can tell that she loves what she's doing and it shows in her work. She is truly a gem and I can't wait to work with her again as my children grow up!"

"I was first introduced to Sharon in 2024 when I did a session of personality portraits, and I was instantly impressed. A few friends had used her before and raved about her work, and now I completely understand why! Sharon truly works magic behind the camera. She is incredibly organized, answering all questions and planning every detail ahead of time.
Merissa
There’s never a need to stress about locations, directions, or even bad weather—she has a backup plan for everything!
One of my favorite parts of working with her is the dress consult to help plan outfits. She has such a great eye for style and helps put together looks that photograph beautifully."

Alexis
I highly recommend Sharon to any mom looking for a talented and compassionate photographer, who takes the stress out of planning.
Her work is exceptional, and she truly cares about her clients. Thank you, Sharon, for capturing these moments for us!"

"Stop reading reviews and just book your session with Sharon Leger Photography right now. Sharon has been there for my family even before we were an official family. She poetically captured our engagement, maternity and our newborn’s first photos.
I couldn’t imagine trusting anyone else with these precious moments.
I am not an easy client. I am nervous, unsure of myself and overly aware of every physical flaw (especially postpartum). Sharon made me feel comfortable and beautiful every step of the way. We love Sharon Leger Photography, especially the woman behind the lens! Thank you for everything, Sharon!"

"We received a message from Sharon and I knew she was the right photographer for us. Her email was personal, she asked us questions to gain great insight into what we were hoping to achieve during our photo session. She allowed for my parents, who were living with us and helping us out with our children, to be present and actively took really nice photos of them with the kids and all of us.
She was so patient with our two year old and our two week old. She entertained our daughter with toys and took beautiful photos of our family.

We were able to do a newborn, family, and holiday photos in just a short few hours because Sharon works very well with children and babies."

"Sharon was a dream to work with. I worked with her for my son’s newborn photography session. From the moment I emailed her she was extremely friendly and explained the entire process in detail.
She made me feel comfortable as a new mom, put me at total ease and explained that we would work through everything together.
The day of the shoot went so smoothly. The studio is spotless and beautiful. Sharon really knows how to work with babies. She was able to swaddle my son and put him to sleep within minutes. The photos are priceless!"

"We are so in love with our photos from our recent newborn and family photo shoot with Sharon.
Leah
Although at first it was overwhelming to think about taking our newborn AND two year old to get their pictures taken, Sharon made it such an easy experience!
I was especially nervous about what would happen with our VERY active son, but Sharon has a way with kids and she kept our son interested and smiling the whole time. We could not be happier with how the photos came out. They will be a timeless momento of this very special time in our lives."
