1. Say Hello

After we've settled on the specifics, I'll send you a comprehensive questionnaire to learn more about you and your family. This helps me tailor the session to reflect your family’s personality perfectly. Alongside the questionnaire, you'll receive a contract and a booking proposal to ensure everything is crystal-clear and agreed upon.

Once you've signed the contract and made the initial payment, you’ll receive a confirmation email from me. This email includes a handy session guide that covers all you need to know to prepare for the big day. And of course, if you have any questions as you get ready, I'm just a message away—always here to help!

Now for the fun part! Our session will be relaxed and enjoyable, focusing on capturing genuine moments that showcase your family’s unique dynamic. We'll laugh, maybe even dance a little, and create unforgettable memories together.

Q: So, What's the Investment?

A: Totally Your Call!

I came across Claire’s Business page on Facebook and immediately booked her for a family session. She was so easy to work with and understood what we were looking for out of the session. We have a 16 month baby so I was really nervous about how our baby will respond to her but our baby adjusted quickly and Claire captured her bubbly personality and bright smiles perfectly. We love how quickly we were able to receive our photos, and the photos themselves are beautiful to say the least. Thank you for the beautiful photos. Farzaana & family

Claire did a wonderful job capturing our large family! She communicated with me super well throughout the process and was friendly and professional. Claire was very prepared and calm throughout the photo shoot. She handled all the different poses and individual family shots we wanted with ease. I have two young children (one of whom was having a very hard time during the shoot) and Claire was patient and still managed to get the pictures we wanted despite the toddler meltdowns. Claire got us our photo gallery really quickly too. Photos turned out even better than expected. Definitely recommend Claire Thom if you’re looking for amazing photos and a seamless process.

We are floored with the family photos that Claire took. I love the online form that I filled out prior to our session with her. The form included thoughtful questions and made me feel that she wanted to be completely prepared for our session that could be tailored to us. Claire is a great communicator and responds so promptly to emails and texts. She was so kind throughout the session and made us feel at ease.

The best of the best! I was late to the game booking Christmas card photos this year and Claire was able to accommodate me within the week. She was so genuine and sweet and captured my family so authentically. I have an almost 1 year old son and she was so great with him. She got lots of pics very quickly so we finished before he got restless. I got my gallery in half the time she quoted me which was the best surprise. I couldn’t pick a favorite because all of the photos were so amazing!

My family recent did a photo session with Claire. We were a little nervous going into the session, as it was our first time doing a photo session and we had 4 generations of our family present. Claire made it a FANTASTIC experience!!! We had fun and there was no stress… the time flew by. After the session, Claire had the photos ready within a few days and we are simply blown away by the results! She did such an amazing job and we couldn’t be happier. We have photos that we will cherish forever. It was such a great experience in fact, that we will soon be booking another session. If you’re thinking about booking a session with Claire, stop thinking and do it! Thank you, Claire, for the amazing experience and top notch photos!

I scheduled to have pictures taken but focus on my daughters and their grandparents. The day arrives and it is forecasted to rain at the scheduled time but Claire was very flexible and accommodating. Not to mention how patient she was with us wanting to include our newest addition, 2month old gsp, who doesn't listen very well yet. The turnaround time on images was perfect and the pictures were beautiful. I highly recommend Claire for all family sessions!

I just received our photos tonight from a recent shoot with Claire, and I may or may not have been tearing up going through them. They are SO special and impressive. My husband and I were initially planning to purchase only a few extra from our package, but after seeing the shots Claire captured, we didn’t even hesitate to invest in the full gallery. We have a 3 year old and a newly-walking 10 month old and the experience could not have been more relaxed, stress free, and enjoyable.
I have worked with a few other photographers with and without our kiddos in tow, and in all of my experiences (which have all been good!) I don’t know that I’ve ever been so impressed with the entirety of the outcome, image to image.
I am really looking forward to hopefully working with Claire in the future to capture memories of our family as my little ones grow up, she has earned a loyal customer in us, and I cannot recommend her enough.
We have some family images now from this shoot that I just know we will be cherishing for years and years to come, and this mama finally has a few special pics of me and my babies!
