What is an 'Unposed' Family Session? Unposed sessions are shot as candidly as possible, resulting in images with a relaxed , genuine feel. During your session you will be instructed to interact with each other naturally, telling jokes, playing, and snuggling. Whether the location is a favourite beach, picnic spot, or your own home-- the focus is less on everyone looking at the camera and smiling, and more about capturing the heart of your gorgeous family. Be aware:: Styling is very important in these sessions. You should expect to purchase at least a couple new wardrobe pieces in preparation for your shoot. I will be happy to provide you with styling help and advice so that everyone comes looking (and feeling!) their very best.

faq
How far in advance should we book?
It is always recommended that clients book at least 2-3 months in advance. Or more, if you have a specific date in mind.
What should we wear?
I'm a firm believer that a bit of effort in styling makes all the difference. As such, I am always happy to help clients with their wardrobe choices. I have some excellent Pinterest Boards that I can refer you to, as well as a Client Closet that you are welcome to borrow from at no additional charge. All you need to do it ask!
What if it rains?
Rain actually makes for beautiful, emotive images and is some of my favourite weather to shoot in. However, if the rain is truly terrible, or the temperature takes a very sudden and severe dip below zero, I would be happy to transfer your deposit and booking to a new date (subject to my availability) Please keep weather in mind when booking though! For example, if you can't stand the idea of a rainy-family-portrait session, then perhaps November-May is not the best time to book a session.
If rain concerns you greatly, consider doing an 'in-home' session inside your own home... Or ask me about the styled studio space that I have access to!

What does 'unposed' mean, anyway?
It means that we will have very little focus on arranging your family in stiff, traditional poses. Instead I will give you fun prompts to get you interacting and moving in a way that looks (and feels!) fun and natural. I capture the magic as it unfolds in an authentic way. The end result is that you walk away from the session feeling like you just spent an hour playing & being silly with your family, rather than doing a photo shoot.
When can I expect to RECEIVE my photos?
You can expect to see a few 'sneak peeks' on social media within a few days. After that, I aim to have your gallery ready a few weeks after your session. If you are in a rush and need things done faster for whatever reason, don't hesitate to let me know! I'm always happy to do what I can.
WHAT IF WE FEEL AWKWARD?
I guarantee you that 9/10 clients that I work with initially describe themselves as "unphotogentic and awkward". However, they quickly learn that sessions with Wanderlust are dynamic and fun! I will help you with natural (un)posing directions that get you moving, laughing, and having a really, really great time. As long as you're able to relax & engage with your loved ones, you'll soon forget all about how awkward and unphotogenic you think you are.
how many photos will i receive?
One hour sessions yield a minimum of 40-50+ edited, and beautiful images. I aim to over-deliver whenever possible.
Do you travel for shoots?
Heck yes! Sessions more than 40km from my home-base of Trail, BC are subject to a travel fee of $0.70 per km.
Tell me more about your studio space!
I am excited to be able to offer clients the option to rent an incredible boho styled studio space for their session! This is ideal for clients who want an 'in-home' vibe, but feel like their own homes are quite up to snuff.
The studio comes equipped with a cozy bed with white linens, vintage furniture, gorgeous natural light, and more plants than you could ever ask for-- giving that picture-perfect 'in-home' feeling without any of the work.
The studio is located in downtown Nelson, BC. Because I do not own the space (rather I rent it, as needed, from the lovely owner) certain limitations exist that are outside of my control. If you're interested in this beautiful space, I'd be happy to chat with you more about what to expect when working together here.
