In Home Family Documentary Session | Los Angeles Family Photographer

A few weeks ago, I got to capture this family's life at home. It was such a joy! Jess and Vince were incredibly welcoming and laid back. Their boys were adorable and fun to play with. Vince is a photographer himself, so I was extra nervous going into this shoot!! AHH, thank you so much for trusting me!!

I love going on-location and seeing families dress up for lifestyle family photos. But I also love being invited into a family's home and documenting life as it happens. What better place to document your family's personality, quirks, traditions, and interactions then at HOME? There were laughter, hugs, and snuggles - but also some tears, tantrums, and pouts. Between the cups of coffee, building LEGOS, a meal around the table, and a couple owies...the joy of family was found. What exactly is an in-home family session? This type of session is a mix between lifestyle and documentary photography. I do provide some direction on posing (and will grab some family portraits), but mostly I will follow your family around like a fly on the wall, capturing your natural interactions. Before our session, we will discuss typical family activities that you want to have photographed and plan around that. It could be a snapshot of a typical day-in-the-life of your family or any activities that will tell your family's story during this season of life. (e.g Making pancakes together Saturday morning? BBQ and pool fun? Your bedtime routine? Homeschooling? Backyard shenanigans?). Whatever it is, it's about telling your family's story. What is your family life like at home? I would love to document it!
