Investment

Family photography in Central Maine for the real season you’re living right now. Every session is designed to capture connection, movement, joy, and the little moments that make your family yours. Whether we’re exploring a field, walking the shoreline, playing in your backyard, or including the dog who follows your children everywhere — the goal is the same: photographs that feel honest, relaxed, and worth holding onto. Dogs are always welcome in family sessions when it fits the location and session plan.


Family sessions begin at $400. The Forever Experience begins at $600.

DOG SESSIONS

 

LEGACY SESSION

 

For older dogs, dogs who are sick, dogs you know you don't have forever. There is no rush, no agenda — just time to document your dog exactly as they are, while they are still here. Every Legacy Session includes a planning call, priority scheduling, 30+ hand-edited images, humans welcome, and a small mailed keepsake after your gallery is delivered. I keep a small number of Legacy Session spots available each month. If your dog is aging or unwell, please reach out directly and mention your dog's situation. I will do everything I can to accommodate you quickly.

Testimonials

Let me just say, I will never use anyone besides Forever by Fortier again!

"The stress it took off my plate having her handle pictures with three wild kiddos was truly life-changing. She completely captured our family’s vibe and somehow made the whole experience fun and enjoyable (which is no small feat with little ones!). I can’t recommend her enough, for both business branding and family!"

Testimonials

"Alissa was amazing to work with again! "

"She did our engagement photos about 10 years ago, and when I discovered she was back into photography, I couldn’t wait to book another session. My husband and I chose a golden hour shoot with an adventure camper/campground theme, and the results absolutely surpassed my expectations."
