For Playful Families Who Want Real, Joyful Moments
Family sessions are meant to feel easy and fun. The best moments come from the way you interact with each other—laughing, playing, holding your babies close, and just being together.
Most of my sessions take place outdoors around Colorado Springs, where we can explore, move, and soak in that golden evening light. We’ll laugh, explore, and embrace whatever your kids bring to the moment. Some of the sweetest images come from the in-between—when you’re holding your baby close or your kids are wrapped around your legs. Those are the moments worth remembering.
Every session is all-inclusive, which means you’ll receive the full gallery of the best images with no need to choose favorites. My goal is simple: for you to walk away with photos that feel like your family in this season of life.

Imagine your family playing together with the stunning Colorado scenery and picturesque views as the backdrop!
As a family photographer in Colorado Springs, I specialize in creating adventurous sessions that capture more than just smiles—they capture real, joyful moments. A session with me isn't just a photo shoot, it's an experience! We’ll go on a short hike, explore the area, and embrace the beauty of the outdoors. Whether your family loves to hike or is new to outdoor adventures, I’ll guide you through a fun and relaxed session that showcases your connection and love for one another.
Colorado Springs offers so many breathtaking locations for family photos, from wide-open fields to red rock formations and mountain vistas. My family photo sessions take place at one of my hand-selected adventurous locations to ensure beautiful light, room to explore, and, of course, incredible views.
Once you book your session, I’ll send over my exclusive location guide to help you choose the perfect setting. Whether you’re drawn to dramatic mountain backdrops or peaceful meadows, we’ll find the spot that fits your family best.
The outfits you choose are a key element in the overall look and feel of your photos. Colors, textures, patterns, and accessories all play a part in telling your story. I know styling can be stressful, which is why I provide lots of support!
Once your session is booked, you’ll receive my style guide filled with tips and tricks, plus access to my client closet at no extra cost. The looks featured below were styled entirely with pieces from the closet!
Your session will be fun for everyone—kids and adults alike! We’ll play games, explore the surroundings, and keep things lighthearted to capture natural smiles and authentic connection. I’ll gently guide you with prompts so you never feel unsure of what to do.
Whether it’s a playful race with the kids or a quiet moment to take in the view, I’ll make sure your session is relaxed, meaningful, and unforgettable. As a family photographer in Colorado Springs, I’ve created this experience to be just as memorable as the photos themselves.
I offer a few different session lengths to fit your family’s needs:
No matter the length, I’ll make sure we capture the joy, connection, and personality that makes your family unique!

"Alysia is so amazing "Alysia is so amazing and creative! I could not have asked for better photos! Our little one was not having it and it definitely doesn’t show as she got so many amazing shots of us! She was so fast with the turn around as well. I would 100% recommend her for photos!"
