One of the things I like most about portrait photography is that I don’t just photograph one type or age of client. In any given week I might see a newborn, 8 year old, high school senior and mom-to-be. And I love each of these types of subjects for their own special reasons. But I have to admit, one of my most favorite images to capture, is the fun family portrait – the one that happened unexpected, with everyone relaxed and being themselves, when everyone forgot I was even taking pictures. It can be really hard to create. It usually happens later in the session. And when it does, I get something like this shot below.
But first, I have to admit, I adore this mom. She is a bundle of joy and energy and an incredible role model and teacher to so many kids – mine included. I was so excited when she asked me to take some newborn photos of their family because I know she is one of those women (as are many of my clients) for whom family pictures are true treasures. And I’m thinking a few of these are going to look really nice in their soon-to-be new home.
Enjoy this sneak peek!
