"I first worked with Claire for a photoshoot and was very impressed with her professionalism & ability to direct and manage a large group with grace. Since then, I have used her for our business & product photography and family photos. She has become our go to photographer and is worth every penny!"

"Love the precious moments Claire captured in those early days!"

After amazing engagement and wedding photos by Claire, we knew we only wanted her to shoot our maternity/newborn session. I wasn’t sure where to take our maternity photos, but told Claire somewhere dreamy with fields and she found the most beautiful location in Palo Alto and the photos turned out stunning! Flash forward to post baby and we didn’t have the easiest newborn. Claire was so patient to wait for our baby to settle down and it took multiple feeds to get him calm and ready for photos. She made sure to keep him comfortable and he didn’t make a peep while she worked her magic! Love the precious moments Claire captured in those early days! Not to mention we felt very safe with Claire at our at home session :) highly recommend!

"She’s very professional and amazingly talented."

"Claire is an amazing photographer. She’s very professional and amazingly talented. We’ve done two family shoots with her with young kids and she’s been able to entertain and capture them with smiles, looking at the camera. She also post edits photos and returns them very quickly!! Highly recommend."

HOW IT WORKS

phone consultation

Phone consultation to discuss your vision and ideas for your session.

Choose a location

Based on your vision, I will send you at least 3 location options for you to choose from.

Your SESSION

Frequently asked questions

where are you based?

I am based in Sacramento, CA. I love Sacramento because it's full of so many beautiful and unique locations but most of all, I am right in between Lake Tahoe and the San Francisco Bay Area. 

Do you offer mini sessions?

I offer several opportunities for mini sessions each year. These sessions have pre-designated locations, dates and times and sessions are typically 20 minutes or less. I do not not offer mini sessions individually but you are always welcome to reach out and ask when my upcoming mini sessions will be if you have not seen an announcement. 

Do you offer prints or albums?

All Ferguson Photo Co. portrait packages include a private online gallery with all of your final images. This gallery allows clients to download high resolution images and print them anywhere of their choosing. 


While I provide the ability to have your photos printed anywhere, your gallery is connected to a print shop which allows all types of prints to be purchased directly through your gallery. The print lab is custom calibrated to my editing style to ensure that your photos print true to color and are consistent with the digital images.


If you're looking for joyful and authentic portraits, but a well-organized and executed process, you're in luck. Let's schedule a consultation and see if this is the right fit!
