I could not be more excited about this post and the images I am going to share with you guys! Why you ask?
Because, I was able to create an incredibly special memory for my own family. As a whole, we always try to get at least one or two group shots a year, because we think it is important to document the many stages of life we go through. Thinking back it had been at least two years since we made the last one. It became my mission while I was in school to bring everyone together and make this session a reality. Although it was stressful at points, It was so fun coordinating the outfits, determining the backdrop, and finalizing the lighting. It brought me an immense joy to see the smiling faces and hear the laughter that a family brings when all together.
I found it to be a beautiful opportunity to share my hopes and dreams with my family. As a photographer there are many moment that stand out, The first photo shoot, the first wedding, and maybe the day your get your own studio.. For me, This was one of the days. I was able to not only share my educational space with them , but also the knowledge I had gained over my two years studying photography. It became a chance to prove to myself that I am capable of the many things I put my mind to. With the help of a few classmates my dreams of having portraits created became a reality. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Do you think photographs are an important part in life? Do you find it important to document each season your family goes through in the expansion of life? If yes to both, whats holding you back?
XOXO,
