Emily McCall Photography bio picture

My philosophy . . .

I love working with people who are fun.  Genuine.  Real.  And that’s what my photography is really all about: capturing the real you.  I can see the connections between the members of your family and the beauty in each one of you -- and that’s what I want to capture with my camera. 

I don’t do the typical matching-outfits portraits, or the canvas-backdrop-strobe-lighting-say-cheese portraits.  I don’t want you to worry about having perfect hair, perfect smiles, and the kids on their best behavior.  Relax.  Have fun.  Be yourself.  I want to show you your family the way I see it through my lens: happy, beautiful, flawless in spite of the flaws.
 
So when I show up for your session, you don’t have to do any pretending.  Just be real.  I like t-shirts and jeans and flip-flops.  And jammies.  And mussed up hair and lollipop-stained faces.  I love hugs and tickle fights and peals of laughter, and snuggles and kisses too.  These things are real.  This is the way I want to remember my family, and it’s the way I want to help you remember yours.

The best Mother’s Day gift…

…(in my humble opinion, of course!) is a family portrait session!  That’s what this lovely family did for its mother today!


I met them all at Hermann Park where we took some beautiful photos.  Mom and Dad were great sports, putting up with all my crazy suggestions; Brian and his girlfriend were extremely patient, as they had another commitment to get to; and Stephanie was a ton of fun, bringing her and her boyfriend’s dog for some photos!  All in all, I think the morning was a huge success.  And I’ve been having way too much fun editing, so here are some teasers to whet the family’s appetite!

Some individual shots:

And just one more, I promise!  This might be my favorite from the whole session–just Mom and Dad…

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there!
