When did you last have Professional Family portraits taken?

Every single year we take family portraits and the older I get the more important they become!

As a photographer I hear stories, almost daily, of families who put off having family portraits taken - for whatever reason- and all of a sudden it's been YEARS and the only professional family portraits they have are from when the 12 year old was a newborn.

I KNOW family portraits are important, not only are they a record of your family for future generations, they also document growth, can boost your child's self esteem and helps them to understand their place within the family.

I know that the pricing page on my website is the first page people will navigate to..and I know you’re going to scroll through that pricing page and make a decision on whether or not you’ll book me, and while it will tell you the basics when it comes to pricing, what it doesn’t tell you is how you’ll feel when you see your images up on your wall every day. It doesn’t let you touch and feel the canvases and albums and hold them in your hands….

It doesn’t explain how I work with you, to create something custom for your home, something special. It doesn’t explain how you’ll feel when you see your images up on the big screen for the first time. how you’ll fall in love with your family all over again. It doesn’t explain how I’ll become like a distant relative “OUR family photographer”, it also doesn’t explain how attached I get to you and your family, your kids and your pets, because honestly, I do.

It doesn’t explain how no matter what your investment is - be it $100 or $1,000 or even $10,000 - if in 5 years time, I offered you your money back in return for my photos, you wouldn’t even dream of taking it.

A page about products and pricing on my website can’t adequately express any of those things, but if you want to check it out it’s here.

I’m a firm believer that family portraits are important, and while pricing will ultimately make up a portion of your decision to have professional family portraits taken, it shouldn’t be the only factor. Finding a photographer who’s images you love, who clicks with your family and your values. I won’t photograph a family that I don’t believe I’m a good fit for, but the families I do photograph, I want them to come back to me year after year. That’s why I don’t charge a session fee for past clients.

For the month of March I’m waiving the session fee for any new families who haven’t had family portraits taken in the past 2 years. So if that sounds like you, and you want to have some family portraits click the button below to find out more.
