Creating film based family imagery for those rooted in New York, whether your days are spent in the city, wandering outdoors, or resting in a quiet home upstate.
NYC editorial FAMILY Photographer
Iris and Ford is a film based family photography studio in New York City. The work is shaped by quiet moments, gentle movement, and the rhythms that define childhood. Time slows down inside these sessions. There is room for softness, room for curiosity, room for the way your family truly moves together. Film holds these moments with a tenderness that feels timeless.
We photograph families throughout the city with a calm, editorial approach that invites everyone to settle in. The result is a collection of images that feel warm, poetic, and honest.

For your inspiration
Most sessions occur at home, in nature, or in our studio. We will help you choose a location that reflects your family and supports the mood you love.
Where do sessions take place?
Yes. We offer an eighteen month story package for families who want to document their story over time. This includes a thoughtful sequence of sessions that evolve with your family.
Do you offer year long or multi session packages?
Family sessions are designed for immediate family. If you would like to include extended relatives, we can discuss a custom option.
Can we include grandparents or extended family?
Your gallery will be delivered within three weeks. This includes careful development, scanning, and curation to ensure a cohesive final collection.
When will we receive our photos?
Most families book one to three months ahead. Weekend dates fill quickly, especially in the spring and fall. We reccommend Mondays through Thursdays for outdoor sessions when parks and outdoor locations are quieter.
How far in advance should we book?
Yes. At home newborn sessions are gentle and unhurried, allowing time for feeding, soothing, and breaks as needed.
Do you photograph newborns?
Sessions are typically forty five minutes to one hour depending on your family’s rhythm and the chosen location.
