4 Reasons You Should Book Your Family Photoshoot Today

How often do we let precious moments slip by without capturing them? I can honestly say that every day there are moments that I want to freeze frame and stash away to remember later. When my kid laughs at something silly I did, or when my husband makes a cheesy joke that he is so proud of – I just want to stop time, rewind and take a picture so I will have it forever.

When you schedule a family photoshoot, it isn’t just about taking pictures of your beautiful family. It is also about celebrating all that you are as a family. All your quirkiness and uniqueness, along with your love and connection.

So why should you book a family session right now? Here are a few more reasons:

1. Celebrate Milestones

Has your little one just had their first steps? Maybe someone is celebrating a milestone birthday? Or maybe you are just excited about how much everyone has changed and grown over the last year? There are so many moments in our lives that we cherish and are worth capturing and remembering.

2. Create lasting memories.

A family photoshoot gives you the perfect opportunity to celebrate your unique bonds, share laughter, and have fun! Spend your session time playing and being present with one another. So often we are in own little bubbles with our families, and all that happens together – the big and small moments – seldom gets captured for you to look back on. Sure, you may have the occasional cell phone pic or video, but what do you end up doing with it? This also leads me to my next point…

3. Get out from behind the camera and step in front of it!

I see you mama! I see you dad! I see you caregiver! You’re the one taking all the pictures and videos of your people every day. Well, it’s time for you to step out in front of the camera for a change. These moments don’t last forever and – as I’m sure you know – time truly does fly by. Take the time to be present in those pictures. It’s something you will NEVER regret.

4. When you have quality photos, you end up using them.

My phone and cloud storage are almost at capacity because I take pictures and videos of everything (seriously, EV-ER-RY-THING). But all that footage sits in storage, and I seldom revisit it. But when I get pictures back from a photo shoot, I use them on all my socials, I get them printed, I put them into photobooks, and I share them with all my family and friends. They are the pictures I am most proud of and excited to share. These are the pictures I want my kids to show their kids and so on. This is not unique to me. When you invest in good photography, you want to show it off! And when you want to show it off, you surround yourself with images that bring you joy and take you back to those special moments.
