"We booked a multi-generation family photo session for my mom's 70th birthday. The session with Stephanie and her team was amazing. We had a one-hour consultation meeting before the photo session day in which she recommended scenic places for the photo shoot based on our conversation. She also scouted the recommended location prior to our arrival to ensure we were able to get the photo shoots we wanted. It felt like she went above and beyond to make this family photo shoot a great experience for us. Not only the photo outcomes were great but we also had a great time. I highly recommend her for your family photo session."

What should we wear for our family photos?

Choosing the right outfits can enhance your photos! We recommend neutral tones, soft pastels, or coordinating colors that complement each other without being too matchy. Avoid busy patterns or large logos.

We offer beautiful outdoor locations, from scenic beaches to lush parks and charming urban spots. Looking for something cozy? In-home lifestyle sessions are a great way to capture authentic moments in a relaxed environment. We’ll help you choose the perfect setting for your family.

Most sessions last 60–90 minutes, giving us enough time for a mix of candid and posed shots. If you have small children, we keep the session fun and engaging to capture natural smiles and interactions.

from our biggest fans

Making sure our clients have a satisfying experience is part of the package you'll get when working with us.


"We had the absolute pleasure of working with Stephanie, Bryan and Shabu (cutest doggie ever!) for a family photoshoot, and it was truly an amazing experience. The session itself was relaxed, fun, and organized. They guided us with poses but also allowed for plenty of beautiful candid moments. The final photos exceeded our expectations! We can't wait to hang them up around our home. If you're looking for a photographer who will create a comfortable, enjoyable experience and deliver high-quality photos, I highly recommend Stephanie Ip Photography. Thanks so much again!"
