Carmel Moms, Get The Family Photos That Finally Feel Like You.
No forced smiles. No “everyone look at the camera” ten times in a row. Just 20 minutes at Coxhall Gardens, catching your family the way you actually are together — the real laughs, the way your toddler leans into your leg, the way your oldest rolls their eyes at you but stays close anyway.
These are the photos you’ll actually want on your wall. Not the ones where everyone’s smile looks the same.

how it works
BOOK
Reserve your time & date with a session fee. This secures your spot and locks in the date.
Question-naire
I’ll send over a short form to get to know your family, your child’s personality, and preferences for the session. So everything feels personal from the start.
Session Day
I direct, you relax. With the right poses, prompts, and a few toddler tricks up my sleeve, I get the natural candids while you just enjoy the moment.
Ordering Meeting
We’ll hop on a Zoom call to go through your images together and select your 10 keepers. You’ll also have the option to add extra images or products.
Book a Session
Petite sessions are $600.
A $200 deposit is due at booking, and the remaining $400 is due 1 week before your session.
Mini sessions are only offered during spring, summer, and fall, with just 3-6 spots available each month. I keep the number small so every family gets my full attention during their session, editing, and artwork design for their home. Spots are limited and booked on a first-come, first-served basis.
How to book:
- Select a time slot – click submit
- Fill out the form – click submit
- Pay the session fee

about your PHOTOGRAPHER
HI, I’M ALEAH
I’m honestly *thrilled* you’re here.
You’ve probably scrolled past a dozen mini-session before this one. So here’s the short version of why this one’s different: it’s not really about the 20 minutes at Coxhall. It’s about trusting the person behind the camera.
- Trust that I can guide your family through the session so easily, nobody even notices they’re being directed.
- Trust that I already know which shot you’ll pick for the wall before the session’s even over.
- Trust that I get what this season of your family actually feels like — and I know how to make it look like you, not like a stock photo.
So, of course, I’d be honored if you were to put that trust in me.
