Day in the Life

FAMILY PHOTOJOURNALISM I A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT YOUR FAMILY

 

THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL ANNUAL PHOTO SESSION 

Documentary photo sessions are not photo sessions in the traditional sense. The process looks more like me dropping into your life at a time you would want to remember to make pictures that will truly matter to you. You work hard to care for your family and ensure everyone is safe, well-fed, nurtured, and cared for. Every family has its unique story so let’s take a day to tell your story, unabridged and unscripted. This experience yields images guaranteed to bring on happy tears during nostalgic times. An ordinary day has so many little moments worth remembering. The way your littlest clings to your leg carries a baby doll in each hand or lays their head on your chest. This won’t last forever. Checking under the bed for monsters will soon be a thing of the past, so let’s document these moments before they are gone.

What to Expect

There will be no forced smiles, matching outfits, or frustration trying to get that “perfect” portrait, but the luxury of time makes Day in the Life sessions so enjoyable. When I show up at your house the Day, it’s my job to meet your kids and put your husband/partner’s mind at ease. Then we do this thing. Within the first two hours of the Day, my camera becomes pretty invisible, and life unfolds naturally. IS IT OK THAT THE KIDS ACT CRAZY? ABSOLUTELY. I have two children of my own, so I am well-versed in the day-to-day hustle and bustle of children. I am NOT your babysitter for the Day.... I will take photos of whatever happens if you leave the kids alone with me, whether they’re drawing on your ivory couch or stuffing the dog with whipped cream out of a can. Short of someone seriously injuring themselves or the family pet - everything goes!

THE PROCESS OF EACH DAY IN THE LIFE SESSION

Plan a day to spend some quality time with your kids, and let me capture you as you are in this moment – It may just be the most relaxed photo session you’ve ever had.
