Families
Family sessions should feel like a fun afternoon together, not a stressful chore. As a Lakeland family photographer, my approach is completely child-led, focusing on playful interactions, genuine laughter, and real connection rather than stiff, forced posing. I proudly serve local families throughout Polk County—including Winter Haven, Auburndale, and Davenport—creating beautiful, all-inclusive digital galleries filled with memories you will cherish for a lifetime.
Family Sessions - What to expect
Photography is more than checking updated photos off your list. It is about preserving the season your family is in right now, the tiny details, the real connection, and the moments you never want to forget.
Every LillyBugs Photography session includes a relaxed, guided experience, help with location planning, simple styling guidance, professionally hand-edited images, and a personal print release.
Choose the collection that best fits your family, and only purchase additional images if you truly love them.

Q:What should we wear?
A: You’ll receive simple styling guidance to help coordinate colors and textures that photograph beautifully. I recommend soft, neutral tones and comfortable outfits that allow you to move and interact naturally. I’m always happy to review outfit options and offer personalized suggestions.
Q:What locations do you recommend?
A: I help every family choose a location that fits their style and vision. Sessions can take place outdoors in natural settings, at the beach, or in a location that feels meaningful to your family. I’ll guide you on the best options based on lighting, season, and the overall look you’re hoping for.
Q:Do you photograph extended families?
A: Absolutely! Extended family sessions are welcomed and thoughtfully planned to ensure everyone is included while keeping the experience relaxed. Prior to your session, we’ll discuss groupings, dynamics, and any special requests so the session flows smoothly and everyone feels comfortable.
Q:How long is a family session?
A: Family sessions typically last 45 minutes-1.5 hours. (Long enough to allow everyone to settle in comfortably without feeling rushed.) This relaxed pace helps create an stress-free experience and allows time for natural interactions, movement, and genuine moments to unfold.

I love, love, LOVE LillyBugs Photography! Celena has taken so many photos of my family over the years and they always turn out fantastic! She’s great at capturing shots of antsy kids and bringing out their spirit in the photos. She’s done maternity photos, newborn photos, milestone photos, family photos, and even porch photos for us during Covid and I can’t recommend her enough. She’s great with natural lighting and in the studio. I’m forever impressed at what she is able to capture given the moods and attention spans of her subjects. I’m always excited to see the results of our sessions and so thankful to have such beautiful memories preserved for the future.

Celena has been more than fantastic to work with. During the day, she was very friendly and worked great with the entire family. Prior she helped with location setting (we are from elsewhere) and on day of she helped with photo selection and which ones looked good. I would 100% recommend her with full confidence
