Warm, relaxed, documentary photography for families
Your kids can make you laugh, warm your heart, and teach you things about life more than anything else you know. Family photos are something tangible and lasting to remember the indelible moments in your children’s lives!
Our Family Photos Are For You If…
- You’re not thrilled about posing in a photo studio (or you’re worried the kids won’t sit still that long!)
- You don’t want to sift through a bunch of package options or feel pressured to choose a handful of prints.
- You want relaxed, natural pictures of your kids as they really are; i.e., real smiles and laughter!
We get it, because we’re parents too! We designed our family photo package in the simplest way we knew — by offering you the exact things that we’d want ourselves. We include a collection of high resolution photo files with unlimited printing rights, so you can make as many prints as you want; create a photo book; or hang big framed pieces on the wall. We offer portrait sessions in Princeton, New Jersey, Brooklyn New York City, and are available for travel worldwide. Session Fee: from $675(Travel fees may apply depending on location.)
Candid photographs full of laughter and real moments.
We book 1 hour shoots because we know you can’t “be yourself” on camera in 15 minutes. It takes time to feel relaxed and happy! In the end, you might even forget you’re being photographed.
Fun, relaxed sessions in a place you love.
At home, in your backyard, at the park, the farm, the beach… Any place you feel happy together! Think of this as a special family experience, all about being in the moment with each other!
A simple, no-stress, photo package.
Life is already complicated enough. We are parents too, so we get it! We offer one simple, all-inclusive family photo package with everything you need (what we would want if we were in your shoes)!
Sound like exactly what your family needs?
Who We Are
Kyo and Janna
We are Kyo and Janna Morishima, a husband-and-wife photography team. Kyo is the portrait photographer, and Janna is the chief communicator. People have used all sorts of adjectives to describe our photography: relaxed, natural, candid, warm, documentary, fine art, spontaneous, friendly, funny, poignant, beautiful… even zen-like. 😉
The Important Stuff
We have two rambunctious kids who make us laugh every single day. We love cooking and eating, exploring trails and farms, mountain biking and traveling, and do our very best to live in the moment.
What It’s Like To Work With Us
Setting Up Your Session
First, you’ll set up a photo session with us. We’ll send you a questionnaire where you can tell us all about your family, where you live, what you like to do together, and what you’re hoping your photographs will convey. We’ll schedule the photo shoot, send you a contract, and you’ll pay the photo session fee then.
The Photo Shoot!
Next is the photo shoot with Kyo. Relax, be silly, run around, give each other lots of hugs… have fun!
Choosing Your Collection
After that, we will edit the photos and email you the link to the online gallery. Then, we send you a link so you can view your custom photo book design online, and let us know if you approve it or if you want to make any changes.
Here is a kids portrait gallery, newborn tips and also an editorial lifestyle gallery.
