Stand Still. Say Cheese.
Not here.
You want beautiful, authentic family portraits without the stress, bribes, or tears.
That’s where I come in.
Parents consistently tell me they “just want one nice family portrait.”
But what do your kids want?
Connection.
At Photopoulos Family Photography, we encourage playtime with your kids.
When you play, explore, and cuddle with your kids, you give them exactly what they need to feel like themselves. And that gives us the real smiles, silly faces and all, you want hanging on your walls.
We’re not just taking pictures. We’re creating memories, right here in Wausau, WI.
Full family sessions start at $390 and include all of your best images- no hidden fees.
✔ All your best images included
(no choosing favorites or paying per photo)
✔ A stress-free, play-based experience
(so your kids can be themselves—and you can actually enjoy it)
✔ Veteran-owned small business
(built on trust, care, and showing up for families)
✔ A session that feels like play, not work
for you and your kids
Veteran, Wife, Mother, and Photographer.
I believe photographs are meant to be more than just snapshots and filters.
Photographs are the time machine of our lives. They help us remember all of the seasons of life, the ebb and flow of growing up and growing old, and preserve our stories for generations to come.
Life is worth remembering. Let’s capture all your seasons in the best light.

Real Families, Real Experiences
Not sure what to expect or how it all works?
“Carissa was a dream to work with. She helped with everything—from choosing the perfect location to making sure we got the shots that mattered most. She was incredibly responsive, and we even got sneak peeks quickly, which made us so excited for our full gallery. She absolutely didn’t disappoint.”
~Erica“We did a mini session for my toddler and it turned out amazing. She was so patient, and I never felt rushed. It was such a great experience, and I’m already planning to come back for more sessions!”
~Lexie
Have an awkward partner or unpredictable kids?
Worried your kids won’t cooperate?
“My husband hates photos and my son doesn’t always cooperate, but Carissa knows exactly how to lighten the mood and get everyone laughing. She made the whole experience feel fun and easy while still capturing beautiful images.”
