Everyone Will Be More Comfortable.

Everyone tends to be more relaxed in their own homes. And what is really key to that, is ensuring that the dad of the family is relaxed. Being at home it is typically warm and cozy during the cold winter months verses having them go to a park in the cold outdoors. Let the kids be kids! Allowing them to be able to jump on the bed, sing, draw, or whatever, lets them be more natural. Some kids have a much easier time engaging with their family and with a photographer in their own home. When you’re in a familiar environment, the time it takes to warm up to the photographer is a bit shorter. Having your family session at home usually eliminates a level of barriers to feeling natural and relaxed.

You Can Take Breaks If You Need To

Sometimes our kids just need time to take a break. This is a great time for them to play, have a snack, read a book etc. And with that comes it being the perfect time to catch those beautiful natural moments! It helps to give your kids time to recharge which in the end results in wonderful amazing photos.

It Tells Your Story

Years from now, while browsing through pictures taken at home, it will take you back to your daily lives instantly. Your home naturally lends itself to a documentary and lifestyle type of photography that is at both current and the perfect way to preserve your family history.

I’m not just talking about your home in the background, but also about how you all interact together and the little things that make your family unique.
