all about the

FAMILY PHOTO EXPERIENCE

If you're like most of my clients, family photos may stress you out a little. The kids are unpredictable, your husband would rather be anywhere else, and you may have been disappointed before.

Here's what I want you to know: this is going to be different. I'll guide you through every step, from planning to locations to posing. Your only job is to show up and enjoy your favorite humans!

Say yes to an easy & effortless experience.

my work IS BEST DESCRIBED AS

connected.
effortless.
heartfelt.

My images are light-filled, relaxed, and natural, focused on the real moments that happen between the posed ones. I always make time for classic portraits of course, but your favorite part of your gallery will be the memories we captured of your favorite people loving on each other.

I'VE DONE MANY PHOTOSHOOTS WITH DIFFERENT PHOTOGRAPHERS AND SHE'S THE BEST ONE

by far.

My Work

I am forever inspired by the way families love each other. And just as no two families are the same, no two galleries are quite the same either. I'll guide your session, but the truth is that you've already made the magic.

the years really do

fly

As a Santa Clarita family photographer, my job is to help you preserve the memories in a way that only photos can. Whether in my studio, your home, or on location, your session with me will be relaxed, enjoyable, and pressure-free. I've got the details handled, promise.

FIVE STARS IS NOT ENOUGH!

— NANCY A.

a note from Tatiana:

The little moments disappear faster than any of us can prepare for — that cheeky smile, the way they reach for your hand, the gap in their smile, or the last photo you took with someone you love. You can never get these moments back once they're gone. It means the world to me that I get to be the one to help you hold onto them.

don't miss your chance to bottle up these moments.

what's included:

Styling & Planning

From outfits to locations and every detail in between, I take the guesswork out of every step.

An Unhurried Session

My sessions are built around connection, not perfect behavior. I love working with real families in all of their beautifully imperfect reality.

Fully Edited Images

Your gallery includes high-resolution, fully edited images delivered through a private gallery. No complicated pricing or hidden fees!

Planning your session

how it works

As a Santa Clarita family photographer, my goal is to make the photo process as seamless and stress-free as possible. Yes, I want you to love your photos — but I also want you to love making them!

01. booking

Send me an inquiry and I'll get back to you within 24 hours. Booking is simple and fully online. You'll also receive a questionnaire so I can get to know your family before we ever meet.

02. prep & planning

Once you're booked, I'll send over my in-depth guide with all of the important details — it covers locations, outfit ideas, how to prepare for session day, and more! You'll feel ready, not stressed.

03. session day

From the moment you arrive, our focus will be on putting your family at ease and having a great time together. You'll play with your children, we'll explore, and I'll capture beautiful classic portraits plus all of the magic in between.

04. Gallery Delivery

A few weeks after your session, you'll receive a private online gallery with your fully edited images. From there you can download, share, and even order prints directly — because these photos deserve to live on your walls, not just your phone!

Frequently asked questions

What if my kids don't cooperate?

They probably won't — and that's fine! I've photographed enough families to be comfortable in both calm and chaos.

what should we wear?

I walk every one of my clients through the outfit planning process, and will ensure that you end up with a wardrobe that feels like you and photographs wonderfully.

what if my husband hates photos?

I hear this all the time. My sessions are designed to be low-pressure, with no awkward photos or poses. Dads get to come enjoy their favorite people, not hold still and force a smile.

what's included in my fee?

The session price includes styling and planning assistance, your session time, and a full gallery of beautiful images. No hidden fees, ever!

when will we get our photos?

Galleries are delivered within 3 weeks of your session date. They'll arrive in a private gallery, ready to print, share, and enjoy.

how many photos will we receive?

The number of photos varies by session type. For full details on my offerings, send me a message and I'll reply to you quickly.

do you have a studio?

I rent a gorgeous studio in Santa Clarita for those who want to shoot indoors but not at home. It is filled with natural light and I offer minimalistic, modern props as well.
