I’ve been asked to do a lot more family sessions lately and I’m loving it.
Perhaps it’s because with Covid, as we’re stuck at home more, we’re forced to slow down and appreciate our loved ones.
… Let’s be honest, there’s also not much to do so a family session is a cool option for an activity together!
(But in all honesty taking photos as a family will never be something you regret. You will always be grateful to have memories together documented. Especially as the years go on.)
I think it’s really cool that each family – and child – is so unique. I love capturing the personalities, interactions, and love of each group I photograph. And in this case, a whole lotta spunk. (Look at the faces and energy of that toddler! She’s hilarious.)
This family already had a toddler, and they welcomed another baby girl, Colette, this year. I love that these photos show snippets of their every day life at home: hanging out reading in mom & dad’s room, feeding the new baby in the living room, playing/hanging out in the kiddos’ bedrooms… These images will be like time capsules in the future, bringing this family back to this precious time.
I love the characters in this shoot – particularly big sis and her two kitties who were following the parents and baby around and wanting some of the spotlight. From jumping on the bed, to being straight up cute – look at the picture on the couch: big sis grabbed her dad’s chin and declared, “you’re SO handsome!”. It was too funny! We all laughed!
Such precious memories and stage in life to document! Glad I could be there to immortalize it for them!
