Portraits & Families
Capturing
PORTRAIT sessions are so much fun!
Whether you choose a quick, short session or a full session, we will capture so many amazing memories that you can cherish for a lifetime. These sessions aren't just for families... they can range from anything like newborn to seniors as well!
My approach to these sessions is fun and laid back. I love making your children laugh and show off their unique personalities during the session. We will do a fun mix of posed and candid pictures during our session, so you’ll have lots of variety to choose from.

HOW IT WORKS
THE PROCESS
STEP ONE
We will go over every detail and plan the perfect session for your family. We will discuss the session you have in mind; props, wardrobe, colors, plans for your images after the session and how we can best tell your family's story! Whether you want to update the photos on your living room walls, decorate your nursery, or share images with friends and family, your session is fully customized from start to finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you have a question that is not answered in the section below, please reach out by contacting us.
What should we wear to our session? We are more than happy to help with wardrobe ideas or choose something from our growing client closet. There are also outfits for sitter sessions for boys and girls and dresses up to size 10 currently.
Where will our photos take place?
We will discuss locations together, and if you’d rather be outside or inside, either one works!
When/how will I receive my photos? For portrait sessions, you will receive your photos in 2-3 weeks. However, busy season can call for longer times. Please keep in mind we do not work on editing sessions on holidays or weekends. Albums will be given through an online link. USBs can be purchased separately.
Do you offer prints?
Yes! Prints of all sizes and other products can be ordered through your online gallery.
What if I want more images?
Each additional image is $25; 5 images $100; full albums are $225
Are cakes included for cake smashes? Please add $50 for cake if you’d like it included in your session.
Do you travel?
Yes, $20/hour is added to locations chosen outside of the Lima area.
When is the best time to book?
Please allow ample time to schedule sessions. Four to 6 weeks before a desired date is best to book. Fall season books even faster!
How will we receive our photos?
Final images will be chosen in-person and once final images are selected, uploaded to your own custom online gallery. There is also the option to order prints or get all images from your album or a custom USB drive, sold separately.

JANA, PREVIOUS CLIENT
“10/10 recommend Sweet Scales. Caitlin has been taking pictures of my kids/family for over 3 years now and never once have we been disappointed! She’s extremely patient (because we all know getting kids, especially babies to cooperate isn’t always easy) and professional! I have loved every session & will continue to have Caitlin capture all our special memories!”
ALISHA, PREVIOUS CLIENT
“We’ve had Sweet Scales Photography do our daughters pictures and our family pictures and she did AMAZING with both sessions. She’s fairly priced and she’s willing to try new styles and locations. We loved her so much we decided to have her do our engagement and wedding photos as well!”
Trisha, PREVIOUS CLIENT
“Sweet Scales Photography has taken pictures for my family for the last couple of years and been wonderful to work with! She even manages to get amazing shots with uncooperative little ones. We had her take pictures of 6 kiddos ages 6 and under and she got every child in the picture and looking at the camera with the majority of them smiling. I couldn't be more pleased with all of the sessions that she has done for us!”
KARA, PREVIOUS CLIENT
“I have had Caitlin do all of our pictures for 5 years! She has done all 3 of my children's 1st birthday pictures and more! She is always patient with them and gets great shots even when they are not very cooperative!”
Amber & Wood Co.
“It was an absolute joy working with Sweet Scales. Caitlin was very communicative and kept me up to date as she photographed my products. She had a quick turnaround time and my photos came out better than I ever could’ve hoped, she’s truly magic with a camera. I would highly recommend her to all my small business owner friends!”
