Time spent with our families is so fleeting and precious. And anyone with children knows the years fly in a blink! So one decision you’ll never regret is taking the time to create beautiful family photos.
In our family photo sessions, we’ll capture beautiful smiles, loving hugs, and lots of fun, natural, unscripted moments.
Family photos: session types and styles
I offer both studio and lifestyle sessions for family photos. Lifestyle sessions are about more than just pretty grins. With up to an hour, we can explore, play, giggle, and find the best light and background for your photos. I’ll help you with posing and making sure everyone feels comfortable and looking their best. But remember… it’s not about being perfect. It’s all about being genuine. Because nothing is more beautiful than real life!
Studio or Outdoor?
There are many advantages to both studio family photos as well as those outdoors. You may decide to try outdoors in the fall when the color is beautiful and children can run and play. But outdoors does have its limitations, with weather being the biggest variable factor. While I will always work with you to find an alternative date and time if the weather is inclement, it’s often difficult to juggle and rebook. Kids’ activities, family commitments, and even weather issues on a rebook date can sometimes be frustrating.
Studio family photos, however, are a known quantity, so we can make sure to get what we need no matter what the weather. Studio family photos allow everyone to gather in my beautiful natural light studio where we can create whatever style of portrait you’d like, whether it’s moody and dramatic or light, airy, and fun. Family sessions can involve couples, expectant parents, children, or even generational gatherings.
I also offer plenty of guidance on what to wear, what time of day is best, and the most pleasing setting and background. You choose the date, I’ll take care of the rest!
The most important thing about family photos to remember is that PERFECT is not a thing. In fact, perfection is totally overrated. Don’t sweat it. Life is most beautiful when it’s authentic. And when it comes to family photos, you want to remember your real life… not a canned, cliched photo shoot.
