Private Apple Picking

Documenting special family traditions


I have been asked for years if I would ever be able to follow a family around as they pick to capture their entire family as they wander through the orchard. The biggest hurdle was usually just how busy the orchard is. There was never a good way to get everyone in the frame without getting strangers in the background. So the idea of a private, after hours experience was born!

A guided picking with a photographer who happens to also be married to one of the owners?

It's the perfect solution.

Testimonial

"We had family portraits taken last year for the first time since our children have grown, married, and had children of their own. We are not an easy group to photograph with the various ages and personalities. Tate took pictures while we picked apples in the orchard. What an awesome experience, with a very informal and relaxed atmosphere. It felt more like a stroll through the orchard and I’m pretty sure the grandchildren just thought they were picking apples. She got incredible pictures of everyone in our group, even the more hesitant kids. It was a great experience, the pictures were amazing and I would definitely recommend this photo shoot!"
