San Antonio Family Photographer
I bring a unique blend of warmth, authenticity, and artistry to every session. My approach to family photography is personal, influenced by my love for capturing real, candid moments with a focus on natural interactions over posed ones.I’ll help your family feel at ease, allowing their genuine emotions and connections to shine through. By embracing natural light, shadows, and beautiful outdoor settings we’ll create heartfelt images that your family will treasure for a lifetime.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many images do I receive?
As an all-inclusive photographer, I deliver all edited images that I deem worthy of being delivered. This is usually a minimum of 70 images in a gallery. All are available for download.
Do you sell prints?
I deliver digital images via an online gallery where clients can purchase prints, canvases, albums, and other items at an additional cost. All items are shipped directly to the client.
Do you offer mini sessions?
I occasionally offer a mini session in the spring and in the fall, but I do not guarantee these. I announce mini-sessions through my newsletter and on Instagram.
Do you provide props of any kind for your sessions?
No. I will have blankets available for my families to sit on but I prefer my photo sessions to focus on the families in nature. I do not bring couches, benches, flowers, or signs. I do not bring anything that would harm the environment. I do not have clothing, wraps, or accessories for newborns.
Will you edit body parts, acne, teeth, scars, etc?
I do not alter one’s appearance in post beyond removing small blemishes that would disappear naturally within a week or two’s time. I will only remove acne, temporary scars, and other minor blemishes.
How far do you travel for sessions?
I will travel anywhere within the United States but require a travel fee. For locations that do not require an overnight stay, I charge a per-mile fee for locations outside a 50-mile radius of my zip code. For overnight stays within Texas, there is an $800 fee. For sessions outside of Texas, there is a $1500 travel fee.
"I cannot say enough nice things about our experience with Laura."
- D’Anna W.
She worked with our almost 4-year old so beautifully! I was concerned that he wouldn't do well, but Laura gave him tasks and assignments and brought out his natural, beautiful little personality! We were able to relax because she handled him so well, and our love for him shone through in the photos. I will come back to her again and again because, not only are the images she captured BEAUTIFUL, but she worked with our son so well and, for that, I am incredibly grateful!
"She put us at ease during each session"
Laura shot maternity and newborn photos for us and just sent photos from a Christmas tree farm mini-session. During the newborn and Christmas sessions, we weren't sure what we would get with a fussy baby and now an unsure toddler but both times Laura managed to capture beautiful images that really show our daughter's personality. She put us at ease during each session and we’re grateful to have photos we love that capture these stages in our family’s life!
- KATHLEEN P.
"Our family photos with Laura turned out so stunning!"
- Caitlin R.
We could not be happier with the lifelong memories we now have. Laura was so great with our 2 year old son, and we will absolutely be using her again for future photos.
