Our Recent Family Portrait Session

 

As always, I am keen to share the images I create. These are from a recent family photo session.  I must admit that of all the work I do, families are probably the most difficult and therefore stressful for me.  I’m a perfectionist and I find it hard to produce perfect images when you need to worry about so many people all at the same time, particularly when some of those people happen to mention that they hate having their picture taken and would almost rather that we just photograph the kids.  But when you get it right it can be so rewarding.  There is nothing like getting an image where everyone is looking their best.  And I feel I did manage that with the above image.  It was everything I wanted out of that image. 

As is often the case, we allow our clients a clothing change or two and an alternate background as sometimes they aren’t sure what they want.  I quite like them both for different reasons and my clients agree, hence ordering them both. 

And of course, I did get to photograph the children without their parents too and they each performed beautifully.  These two have a great relationship and it really shows in these images. 

 
 
If you are thinking about family portraits don’t leave it any longer.  We all put things like this off but before you know it the kids are grown and you’ve missed a great opportunity to capture a memory that is invaluable in years to come.  Its not so much for the parents that this is important.  For me this is something for the children, so they can understand who their parents were when they were raising them.  I wish I had a family portrait like this with my family, but unfortunately we never had one.
