Family Portrait Sessions Should Be Fun

Updated: May 25, 2023



I never would have believed it when I was photographing their parents’ wedding that 15 years later I would be photographing these three handsome boys.

If the current sibling dynamic could be expressed in one photo, I think this it.



Don’t worry, we knocked out beautiful portraits for the wall as well. It just took one of my favorite strategies for getting less-than-interested kiddos to smile...DO NOT SMILE...you have to be ridiculously serious for this one. Stern faces, finger-pointing, the whole works.

Mom told me later she couldn’t believe how smoothly it had gone and there was even an admission of it being fun. Mission complete.
