Boise Family Photographer

Preserve the cherished moments of your family's journey with a skilled family photographer in Boise, Idaho. I specialize in creating beautiful, timeless images that authentically capture the love and joy within your family. My portfolio, featuring past portrait photography sessions, serves as a testament to my commitment to delivering lasting memories. As your dedicated Family Photographer, I am here to craft meaningful and heartfelt portraits that will be treasured for generations to come.

  • My photography style is inspired by a blend of influences, drawing on raw, genuine emotions as well as carefully directed poses. I have a deep appreciation for natural light, stunning backgrounds, and thoughtfully selected locations. Each session is crafted to bring out the best in every shot, and I’m dedicated to providing a memorable experience with outstanding customer service. I believe talent is a gift, and I’m often told I have an innate ability to capture life’s true essence and beauty. If you value creativity, quality, and heartfelt imagery, I may be the perfect fit for you!

  • I understand how excited you are to see your images, and I’m committed to delivering the highest quality photos that truly capture your cherished memories. My typical turnaround time for portrait sessions (such as family, maternity, senior photos, and so on) is 1-2 weeks, allowing me to carefully edit and perfect each image. Once your photos are ready, they’ll be delivered as high-resolution digital downloads or on a USB, based on your preference and/or package details. Every image is treated with care because these are memories you’ll treasure for generations to come.

  • I now offer a variety of print options including Prints, Canvas Prints, Metal Prints, Acrylic Prints, and more through your high-resolution digital download gallery.

    With each package, I provide a print release so you can print your images at any printer of your choice. However, I always recommend having your prints professionally done through me to ensure the best quality. Professional photo prints make the most beautiful gifts and lasting keepsakes! Let me take the hassle out of the process and deliver prints that are perfect every time. :)

  • During your session, I’ll capture a variety of shots, including group photos, smaller groupings, individual portraits, couples’ images, children’s photos, and candid moments (when applicable). My goal is to provide you with a wide selection of photos to choose from, ensuring that you have plenty of beautiful options to remember the session by.

  • Yes! Once you’ve paid the retainer or non-refundable booking fee, I’ll send you a location guide with amazing, exclusive spots that many photographers may not know about. At Foreign Perceptions Photography & Design, I take pride in finding unique and memorable locations that will make your photos truly special, and I want to offer them exclusively to you!

  • No worries at all! As the oldest of 8 girls, and having helped raise my special needs sister Aubree, I’m no stranger to the unpredictability of kids. I completely understand that they may have their own ideas, and if we encounter some challenging moments, I’m here to go with the flow. We’ll work through it together, and in the end, you’ll have beautiful images to cherish. Don’t stress, momma—I’ve got you! :)

  • Your online viewing gallery will include approximately 50-200 images for you to choose your favorites from. Look to your package details to see how many edited images you receive. Also, please note that you can purchase additional.

  • I always recommend choosing a color theme for your outfits and incorporating layers and textures for added depth. For more detailed guidance, I provide a "What to Wear" guide in my welcome package, which goes into all the specifics to help you create the perfect look for your session.

  • I know being in front of the camera can feel a bit intimidating, but don't worry—I guide you through every step. My goal is to capture natural, playful, and effortless images while making sure you feel completely comfortable. I’ll provide guidance on poses and hand placement, so you don’t have to worry about a thing!

  • Yes, for all portrait packages, I require a non-refundable booking fee to secure your date and time, which is applied to the total session cost.
