Photography That Feels Like a Playdate

Eight years ago I turned my love of candid photography into Sunday Lane, and I've been documenting Denver families ever since. I'm a mom myself, so I know how it goes - the meltdowns, the bribes, the one kid who will not look at the camera.

That's exactly why my sessions are relaxed and play-led. We'll walk, explore, tickle, and chase, and I'll quietly capture the real connection in between. No stiff poses, no forced smiles - just your family being your family, beautifully.

  • Relaxed, play-led sessions - great with kids
  • A mom who gets the chaos
  • Golden-hour outdoor & in-home options
  • Warm, natural editing that lasts

What to Expect

Relaxed From Start to Finish

Nervous about wrangling everyone for photos? Don't be. Before your session I'll send a simple guide with what to wear and where we'll meet, so you can show up and just be present.

During the session we'll keep it light and moving - no awkward standing around. Afterward, you'll get a sneak peek within days and your full gallery within two weeks, plus help choosing prints and albums if you'd like them.

  • A what-to-wear guide before your session
  • Relaxed, no-pressure shooting
  • Sneak peeks within days
  • Print & album help if you want it
Happy Families

Loved by Denver Families

We are not a sit-still-and-smile kind of family, and Sunday Lane somehow turned our chaos into the most beautiful photos we have ever had. Our kids actually had fun. I cried when I saw the gallery.
The Reyes FamilyFamily Session, Wash Park
Maya captured our newborn so tenderly - the tiny fingers, the sleepy yawns, my husband's face holding her for the first time. These are the photos we will treasure forever.
Emily & JoshNewborn Session, Highlands
Three generations in one frame, with my mom who is not always easy to get on camera. Sunday Lane made everyone feel comfortable and the result is a portrait we will hand down for decades.

We have booked Maya every fall for four years now. She remembers our kids' names, knows exactly how to make them laugh, and the photos just keep getting better. She is part of our family tradition now.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do sessions cost?

Sessions start at $375 and include the session itself and your edited online gallery. Print collections and albums are available separately. Reach out for the full pricing guide.

What should we wear?

Once you book, I'll send a simple what-to-wear guide with palettes and tips that photograph beautifully together. The goal is for you to feel like yourselves, just a little more put-together.

What if my kids won't cooperate?

Totally normal, and totally fine. My sessions are play-led and patient - we move at your kids' pace and some of the best photos come from the in-between, unposed moments. I've truly seen it all.

Where do you shoot?

I shoot outdoors at golden hour around Denver and the Front Range - parks, open spaces, and the foothills - or in the natural light of your own home for newborn and lifestyle sessions.

How soon will we get our photos?

You'll get a few sneak peeks within a couple of days and your full, edited gallery within two weeks - delivered in a beautiful online gallery you can download and share.

How far in advance should I book?

Fall is my busiest season and books up months ahead, so the earlier the better. That said, reach out anytime - I'll always do my best to find a spot for your family.
