Why Families Invest in Photography
Let's talk family portraits!
Are they necessary? And are they a worthwhile investment? My answer is a resounding, yes! There are several reasons why spending the extra money on professional, family-centered photography is important.
But First: Meet the Dolin Family!
Last weekend, I had the pleasure of capturing this beautiful family at Scarborough Bluffs. Their daughter is a mere one and a half years old, but every time I see her, she is bigger and bigger. Last summer, she was still in a carriage, now, she is walking and understands everything that we are saying.
Time flies by, and it's crucial to preserve these memories while you still can. While a family photo session may be an upfront investment, it yields images that will be cherished for a lifetime. So, let me share some compelling reasons why scheduling a family session is so important.
Capturing Precious Time: Our lives are constantly changing, and children grow up so quickly. While you may believe you'll remember every stage, memories fade. You'll be grateful for photos that remind you of how tiny those little fingers once were.
They’re Fun! Family photo sessions are an opportunity for you to enjoy quality time together. Letting go of the responsibility and allowing me to take care of everything means you can be fully present in the fun moments with your family.
Everyone in the Frame: Think about all those photos you take of your kids on your phone – how many of those are you included in? It’s common for parents to take countless photos of their children but rarely be in the pictures themselves. When you look back on these special years, you'll want to see the joy and connections you shared with your family.
Ideal for Christmas cards or home décor: One of my main goals when taking pictures is to capture timeless images that you can hang on your walls and enjoy for many years to come. Having high-quality photos that look beautiful in print gives you a great material to use for Christmas cards or personalized home décor.
Investing in a family photography session is a chance for everyone involved to express themselves. As the photographer, I will guide you, and offer prompts so that everyone feels comfortable and looks natural in the photos.
