Timeless Memories
Because the days may be long, but the years are short.
Why Families matter
There's something special about freezing a season of life that feels ordinary now, but won't be forever. The way your child reaches for your hand. The missing front tooth. The belly laughs. The chaos. The connection.
Family photos aren't about perfection—they're about preserving the people and moments that matter most.
“A photography keeps a moment from running away.”

Client Experiences
“We absolutely love working with Olivia! She has taken our family pictures twice now and we fell in love with her work both times. She not only picked beautiful locations for our sessions but she also gave us a variety of poses/backgrounds within those sessions. We felt totally comfortable with Olivia and she never made us feel rushed. She was able to capture each of our kiddos true personalities through her photography. We can’t wait to work with Olivia again!”
Amanda Walsh - Family Client 2024
"We had such an amazing experience with our family photographer! From the moment she arrived, she brought incredible energy that instantly put everyone at ease. She guided us through fun, natural poses that never felt forced, and somehow managed to capture our family exactly as we are—our personalities, our dynamic, and all those little in-between moments that mean so much.
The entire session felt effortless because she was so easy to work with, and her turnaround time was impressively fast. When we received our photos, we were blown away—they’re absolutely beautiful and truly something we’ll cherish forever."
Anna Wirth - Family Client 2026
"We had the most amazing experience working with Liv to capture our son’s first birthday photos! If you’ve ever tried taking photos of a toddler, you know they’re not the most cooperative subjects. Despite this, Liv still managed to make the session so fun and relaxed. She was so accommodating to all of the poses I wanted to try and made my visions come to life better than I could’ve imagined. The attention to detail, creativity, and genuine care she puts into her work really shows in every image. Liv is so sweet, patient, and truly so talented, and we are so grateful for the memories she created for us!"

We worked with Olivia for our family pictures, and she made the experience so smooth and effortless. The pictures turned out amazing and we were very happy with the outcome. Because of this experience, I have used her services multiple times due to her professionalism, optimism and attention to detail in bringing my ideas to life. I would highly recommend Olivia Shae Photography!
