Because one day, the crumbs in the backseat will be gone, the bedtime battles will fade, and the little quirks you swore you'd never forget will start to blur. Photos are what hold onto those in-between moments, the giggles, the quiet cuddles, the way your family feels right now. 

My sessions are designed to be easy, relaxed, and real. No forced smiles, no stiff posing, just you and your people, the way you are together. I'll guide when needed but mostly encourage play, connection, and presence so your photos feel timeless and true to this season of your life.

Family Photography

I'm Jacqueline, a family photographer in Orange County who's all about capturing the real, in-between moments, the ones that feel like you. My style is classic and timeless, with a playful touch, so your photos will bring you right back to this season of life every time you look at them.

Photos with memories that will last even after the children have left the nest

My promise to you

Life moves quickly, but photos have a way of slowing it down. When you look back on your gallery, I want you to be able to feel the little details again, the warmth of the sunshine, the joy of connection, and the love that shines through it all. These aren't just photographs, they're a tangible reminder of a chapter you'll never want to forget.

The images we create together are meant to live beyond your phone or computer screen. Whether displayed in an album you flip through with your kids or hung on the walls of your home, these photos are keepsakes to be cherished for generations, a way to pass down not just how you looked, but how it felt to be together in this moment. 

Forever

to cherish

The beauty of timeless pictures is that they never go out of style. They're not about chasing trends or creating staged perfection. They're about capturing the real, honest, and heartfelt moments that make your family unique. From soft cuddles to the big belly laughs, these images will always feel like you. 

Every session is designed to freeze the fleeting details of this season, the way your kids' hair curls after a long day outside, the joy in their laughter, or the quiet comfort of being held close. These are the moments that deserve to be remembered, not just for today but for years to come.

Your Experinace

Jacqueline has been doing our pictures for years! Every experience with her is better than the last. The quality of the photos are beyond my expectations! She's warm hearted and always goes above and beyond!

These pictures means everything!

- jaclyn

Jacqueline Kay photography is amazing! I have used her for many different occasions. Family, baby, and individual photo shoots. I am always so happy with how they turn out. I love the way she captures natural light in her photos and it always looks amazing! She is really good with kids and the chaos that they can bring to a photo shoot. She is patient with them and finds ways to capture beautiful pictures of them and out family. I have been nothing less than impressed by everything she sends me from our photo shoots. I can't recommend her enough!

It's everything I wished for!

- jessica

We loved working with Jacquie! She was so warm and made us all so comfortable taking our newborn pictures. She also gave us a ton of time to get all of the shots we wanted. We definitely want to use her for any other family photos in the future. 

A memory that will last!

for keeping your memories

Your investment

I suggest booking 4-6 weeks in advance, especially during the busy fall season. This gives us time to plan outfits, choose a location, and ensure your preferred date is available.

how far in advance should we book?

I shoot on-location throughout Orange County and surrounding areas. Parks, fields, and beaches are always great choices, but I'll also recommend some of my favorite local spots once I know the look you're going for.

where do family sessions take place?

You'll receive a curated online gallery with about 30 fully edited, high-resolution images, These are yours to download, share, and print, with the option to order professional-quality prints directly through my lab.

how many images will we receive?

Don't stress, this is completely normal! I have plenty of tricks to keep little ones engaged and capture authentic smiles. Some of the best photos happen in those imperfect, real-life moments.

what if my kids don't cooperate?

I recommend coordinating, not matching. Neutral tones with a few pops of color or texture photograph beautifully. Avoid busy patterns or large logos. I'm always happy to help with outfit guidance if you'd like styling tips.

what should we wear for our family photos?

My full family sessions are up to one hour long, giving us plenty of time for both posed portraits and candid, in-between moments. I also occasionally offer mini sessions that are shorter and seasonal.
