In August, I had the chance to do a family lifestyle session in Hampton, Virginia. We chose to go to a few different spots to get three different looks. Changing things up kept things interesting, especially for the kids. We also kept things casual and low-key, choosing to focus more on candid moments rather than perfect poses.
During their session, they really let each of the three girls’ personalities come out. I LOVE to see this as a Virginia Beach photographer. I also love how their outfits weren’t all matchy matchy. Not everything has to be perfectly coordinated for your photos to turn out great. When you look back at these photos years from now, you’ll want to remember what they were like and how they expressed their personalities. Capturing their true selves is more important than trying to fight for the perfect posed photo. It’s all about being true to your family’s style and personality.
Family photos can feel like a lot of pressure, like everything has to go exactly the right way. But here’s the thing – it doesn’t. In fact, sometimes it’s better when things don’t go as planned because that’s when we get real, natural moments that show who you and your family really are.
Updating your family photos, or even booking your very first photo shoot, shouldn’t be another thing to worry about on your to-do list. It’s not a chore, and you don’t need to overthink it. Just book the session. We can go somewhere fun, or even stay at your house where your kids feel comfortable.
Play with your kids. Have fun as a family. Make the memories.
Let me capture it all so you don’t have to worry. We’ll get the laughs and giggles, the sweet and tender moments, and all the little personalities that make your family exactly what it is. I promise you won’t regret it. Book your family lifestyle session today and let’s make some beautiful memories together.
