Jay Peak Vermont Family Session // Spashing with the Daberers

hey there, I'm ali.

I am a toddler & dog mom, chocolate lover, avid smutty fiction reader, get-me-outside girl, and heart-driven photographer.

This Jay Peak Vermont family session filled my soul. Not only did I get the chance to hang with a long-time friend and her family, but we also had so much fun splashing and playing in the river and documenting such a fleeting time in such a gorgeous place.

Choosing images to share from this session was next to impossible because I am so obsessed with the way they love on each other, play with each other, and honor one of their favorite places by enjoying it so thoroughly. (Here is the full gallery from this Jay Peak Vermont family session!)

Plan Your Own Vermont Family Session

I call my family, maternity, and newborn sessions “Storytelling Sessions” because that is exactly what they are.

Together, we plan a session that encapsulates the season of life you want to document. I’ll ask specific questions to help you brainstorm the most important moments, memories, locations (like Jay Peak!), and feelings you want to remember.

You’ll have a chance to tell me more about the kind of images you’re most drawn to and the things that inspire you, and share any images you’ve seen and loved. Then, we’ll work together to plan outfits and choose a location and time that best represents your family and the story you want to tell.

Becoming a mother transformed the way I see and photograph the world — with a slowed-down feel focused on the sensory story of a life well-lived and even-more-loved.

I photograph the loose curl, the soft thunder of little feet, the vows said through tears with your toes in the moss.

This is not curated perfection. This is memory made visible.

My style behind the lens: Whether I'm looking for bugs with your kiddos, snuggling your newborn while you change outfits, or exploring Vermont nature with you and your love, your session will feel fun, effortless, and like you're hanging with a friend.

My style behind the image: With a nod to classic film and a vibrant punch, my photography style is a little grainy, a little earthy, and always nostalgic.  

My style behind the books: When I'm not taking your picture, I'm probably snuggled up with my dogs, my kiddo, and a spicy romantic fantasy novel (IYKYK).

Love stories? Here's Mine

It’s those small, familiar moments that you’ll want to remember when the toys
are packed away and the
bathwater's gone cold —
the mess, the motion,
the everyday rhythms.
So we press pause. We
make time. We capture
what’s real—calluses,
chocolate, chaos and
all.

There’s something kind
of magical about the
everyday: how it sneaks
past us while we’re
making lunch, brushing
crumbs off the counter,
or trying (and failing)
to fold the fitted
sheet.

Every Day
