Autumn 2026
Fall Family Sessions
The photos you actually put on the wall, taken while the light is still warm and the leaves are still turning. Two hours, guided the whole way, at a park or waterfront spot we pick together based on what your family is like rather than what looks good on a map.
Fall weekends go first every year. Every session includes your private reveal and an 11×16 fine art print, a $300 value.
The Investment
Nautical Moments is a full service studio. The $299 session fee covers your two hour guided session and a professional editing team finishing every image. Finished wall art and digital collections are purchased separately at your reveal and begin at $999, with no minimum order and payment plans available.

I really enjoyed our family photos with Nautical Moments. I was worried about the location I chose not having enough different places to fill an hour but Ben was able to add a few extra spots and even got some candid unexpected shots.

We have used Nautical Moments Photography for three different events in our lives. Wedding, maternity, and newborn photos. Ben Collier has a great eye and captures way more than one perfect picture. Our family will be using this photographer for many years to come.

The Locations
One beautiful location each Sunday
Each Sunday we set up at one location for the whole day, so pick the date that matches the spot your family will love.
Weekday midday sessions meet at Belfair State Park, and weekday evening golden hour sessions are private, at a location we choose together.
State park dates need a Discover Pass for parking, ten dollars per vehicle or forty five for the annual pass.

Good To Know
Questions people ask
What if it rains? Light rain and overcast skies are genuinely good for portraits and do not cancel a session. If conditions are unsafe we move you to the next available date at no charge.
What should we wear? Deep colors and soft textures work beautifully against fall foliage. Start with one person, pick their outfit, then build everyone else around that palette. Avoid loud logos and everyone matching exactly.
Where do we go? We pick together. Waterfront, park, or somewhere with real fall color, chosen around where you are and how far your youngest will happily walk.
How many people can be in the photos? Extended family and grandparents are welcome, just tell me the headcount when you book so I can plan the spacing and the timing.
Can we bring the dog? Yes.
How soon do we see the photos? Your private reveal is about two weeks after the session, which leaves time to order wall art and cards before the holidays.

Fully guided sessions, a professional editing team behind every image, and a private reveal where you choose finished artwork for your walls. That is the difference between hiring a photographer and booking an experience.
