Experience - Lane Wesley Photography

I don't want your photos to be something that's just ticked off the to-do list.

let's make it a great memory.

I want to photograph moments,

not poses.

My photography style is storytelling based with a heavy focus on connection. There's no formula for photos, it's all variables. That's what makes photos unique to each family. Photo sessions have the ability to make people hella stressed out, but they don't need to. All you have to do is show up as yourselves and hang out. That's it. Focus on being present with your family, I'll take care of the rest.

When you go in with no expectations, magic happens. You'll get photos that are perfect for your family 🤎

The beauty of lifestyle sessions is that they're tailored to your family. Gone are the days of stiff clothes and fake smiles. Now, we do what ever the hell we want.

The possibilities are endless, but a good starting point for sessions is this simple question;

what does your family enjoy doing together?

Do you cook together? Do crafts often? Go to the park and have picnics? Take a walk around your neighborhood every week? Skateboard at a local skate park (or in your driveway)? Go on family bike rides? Have a garden you tend to every year? Cut your kid's hair in the kitchen? Go apple picking annually? Deck out everyone's arms in temporary tattoos? Grill on the back deck every week? Splash in the pool for hours every summer?

If we do something that your family enjoys doing, not only are you more comfortable and are spending quality time together, but you'll have photos of these memories. I'm allllll about those sentimental memories 😉 AND, this is the perfect opportunity to spend time with your family with no distractions. Win, win.

I want to make this process easy peasy for you! Here's the gist.

01: we talk

Send a message through my contact form (there's a button below that will take you straight to it), I'll reply within 48 hours and send the link to my 'investment guide', then we'll talk details. Once we get everything squared away, you're in my calendar!

02: we plan

We'll decide on a time that works best for lighting (and nap times!), I'll help with any styling questions you may have, and we'll chat about an activity (or activities) you may want to do, and location if needed.

03: The session

The day comes for the session. You + your fam play, we hang out and chit chat. I'll guide you when needed, but will step back to let moments happen as well. My sessions are child-led so if we need to break at any time for snacks, a dance party, nursing, etc. - we can do that!

04: the grand reveal

Within 4 weeks of your session, your gallery link will be sent to you by email! 🥳 I deliver galleries through an online delivery website where you can easily download your photos (it walks you through how step-by-step). You can print your photos wherever you choose (but I do list my recommendations on where to print in the email I send!).

bam, that's it.

"Lane was excellent to work with. She was very prompt, thorough and professional. Our little one wasn’t loving having his photos taken, but Lane was very patient and allowed us to be on our time. We will forever cherish our photos!"
