My top reasons why you NEED family photos every year

Hey there, fellow tired moms! Let’s talk about why we should be getting those yearly family photos taken. I know it can be hard to wrangle the kiddos, find perfect outfits, and convince our partners to do something they don’t want to do, but trust me, it’s worth it!

Your family is always in a season of some kind of milestone. Remember when little Jimmy lost his first tooth? Or when little Susie took her first steps? Those are moments that we never want to forget, and family photos are the perfect way to remember your growing kiddos.

It’s not just about the past, it’s also about the future. Think about it: when our grandkids are flipping through photo albums, we want them to see our beautiful faces, right? By taking yearly family photos, we’re creating a visual family history that will be passed down for generations.

Plus, let’s not forget about building a fun family tradition. I don’t know about you, but I love any excuse to get my family together for some quality time that doesn’t involve a screen, where we can just have fun outdoors. It’s a time to dress up, have some fun, and create memories that we’ll cherish for years to come. My style of photography is more than just capturing photos, it’s about having genuine moments, I just happen to be there snapping pictures while you’re loving on your kids and playing.

Every mother complains constantly about how quickly her kids are growing, time gets away from you so quickly. The days are long but the years are short. Without photos we wouldn’t truly be able to see the growth, you know how when you’re too close to something you don’t notice all of those little changes. And then one day you wake up and your kid is a teen and you have no idea how it happened!!

We work hard to build our families, and we should be proud of that. By taking yearly family photos, we’re showing off our beautiful families and the love we have for each other. Family portraits are meant to be shared in your home and with friends and family online.

So yes while it may seem tedious to get your whole crew together for some photos you’ll never regret the end process. I’m proud to offer family sessions that are beyond easy for you mom! No need to stress over outfits, I’m going to fully style you and by using my client closet you likely won’t have to buy a thing! Are your kids wild and crazy? AWESOME, because I love kids with tons of personality. Is your husband crabby when he has to get a photo session? What’s his favorite beer? I’ll gladly bring him one to the shoot! Whatever the reason is that’s keeping you from getting family portraits this year I likely have a solution to make it much more tolerable.
