Charis is the absolute best. If you’re looking for a family friendly photographer who knows how to make you look your best- she’s your girl.

Charis brings a warmth and light into our home every time we are in her presence. Her ease and loving energy makes the entire experience feel easy and natural. Her energy allows for an authentic experience that can be clearly seen and felt in the images she captures.
Charis did an amazing job at capturing our family’s personality through photography. She worked well with the younger ones at getting them to smile. It was a laid back, relaxing session. When we left, the children mentioned how much fun they had. We would highly recommend Charis Elisabeth Photography.
Charis was incredibly professional. She found out what we wanted ahead of time, arrived on time, and sent me so many beautiful taken and edited images. Her turn around time was excellent! 10/10 for this artist!
Your children view the world with a magic lens.
Photo sessions with me are about capturing that magical joy and wonder. We skip the stiff posing and only looking at a camera.
lean into laughing, snuggling and taking a moment to soak in these moments with your precious family.

Lifestyle Family and Newborn Photography Means:
Natural. Joyfilled. Timeless.
"Charis was such a fun, relaxed newborn photographer and is so good at what she does! Our session was on a super cloudy day and we were sleep deprived and our toddler wasn’t in the mood for photos—but Charis gently charmed him into cooperating and made it so fun for all of us. And the toddler been asking about Charis ever since. 😊 Despite the gloom, she worked her magic and produced gorgeous bright airy photos that capture this stage of our lives perfectly.
We absolutely love the memories she captured for our little family!"
