LIFESTYLE SESSIONS Imagine spending the day adventuring with your best friend hiking one of your favorite trails or exploring a national or state park you've never been to before. Wherever your choose to adventure together, I'll be there capturing your moments big and small. PLAN MY LIFESTYLE SESSION SO WHAT IS A LIFESTYLE SESSION? A lifestyle session will mostly likely take place outside so you'll be able to breath the air and take up space. ​ I will direct you in posing which means guiding you through motions. Think of me almost as a movie director, directing you through movement and play. I want you to be as present and connected as possible with your fam. ​ I'll bring my camera but everything else is is up to you! LET'S CONNECT "We had just moved to Vermont a year ago and we were looking for a new family photographer & happened to stumble upon Rae. Rae is so responsive to our emails or direct messages that scheduling/booking a photo session is super easy. She is 100% a pro behind the camera. Mg husband and I aren’t very photogenic people and somehow Rae always gets absolutely amazing pictures of us! She had us laughing and goofing off our entire session— we can’t wait to use Rae again for our next session!" - Alyssa P CHOOSE YOUR ADVENTURE I have lots of locations and ideas of my own in mind but I want to hear yours! ​ • Hike up your favorite mountain and then have some s'mores afterwards • Celebrate your anniversary by hiking up to the spot you first eloped • Show your kids Acadia National Park for the first time • Go kayaking or paddle boarding at Lake Willoughby • Have a picnic at your favorite lake or pond or on top of a mountain • Spend the morning teaching your kids how to fish ALRIGHT IM IN!
