Need only a few pictures? Perfect!
Half sessions are a smaller version of a full photo session.
You still get a playful, relaxed experience in an outdoor location, access to my styling advice, and end up with a gallery of images to choose from, but everything is condensed to save time and money.
Out of the necessity of length for newborn and extended family sessions, they are not available as half sessions.
Available on Sunday, July 6 & Monday, July 7
Only two spots open in Bellingham, WA
Session fee: $150
In order to book your half session, you will pay a session fee of $150 and sign a portrait agreement online. This fee pays for the preparation I walk you through before the session, my time and talent the day of the session, and all of the editing I do to create your final gallery afterward.
To reiterate, the session fee does not include prints or digital images.
Wardrobe assistance
After booking, you will receive access to all my styling resources including a consultation call that will assist you in choosing the perfect outfit, guaranteeing clothes that will photograph beautifully. Whether you decide to purchase new clothing or simply know how to look for pieces already in your closet, it is a valuable asset to many of my families.
Your Half Session
The day of your session, please arrive 5-10 minutes early and be prepared to spend 20-30 minutes outside. I will place you in good light, tell you how to stand, then give you prompts to create an organic, candid moment. The goal is to have a stress-free, joy-filled experience for you and your family members. Be sure to wear shoes comfortable enough for walking so you can relax and have fun!
Slideshow
2-3 weeks after your session, you will receive an email from me letting you know that your gallery is ready. The link in the email will take you to a slideshow where you will be able to view all of the images from your session (20-30 images). My hope is that you will hook it up to the biggest screen you own and enjoy this moment with your family.
Your slideshow will be available for 48 hours. Share it with friends and family!
After watching your slideshow, you can make an informed decision about which collection you would like to purchase. All collections contain digital images and print credit, enabling you to spend your print credit directly on the items in your gallery shop--loose prints, framed art, and wooden blocks to name a few.

Hey Naomi, what's print credit?
Your print credit acts just like a coupon code in your gallery shop.
You can use it to purchase any prints, wall hangings, or other products that are offered in your gallery shop.

Family Photography
Hi, I'm Naomi
Capturing your favorite moments
Naomi Boyer is a Bellingham native who now calls Pennsylvania home, where she captures the beauty of everyday connection as a family photographer.
A storytelling powerhouse with a camera in one hand and a heart for families in the other, Naomi is drawn to the honest, in-between moments that speak volumes. Her work is deeply rooted in her own journey through motherhood, especially the healing lens photography offered during her postpartum season, and she brings that same sense of empathy and wonder to every session.
