Capturing memories that will last forever

Your family is growing up. It’s happening even right now as you reading this. Kids become tweens who become teenagers who move out and are suddenly half a continent away. Freeze time with a photo, the best way we have with our current technology to catch a moment.

Fake smiles don’t work. We have a thorough understanding of how to bring out the real smiles because we’ve been on both sides of a family picture, both as the photographers trying to make it happen and as the kids who really, really don’t want to be there. It gives us the unique understanding and the casual approach that makes the day enjoyable and makes the pictures fantastic.

If you’re looking for pictures you can cherish for years and, as an added bonus, a fun day out with the family, then contact us today.

Frank was awesome! We got some family photos done with him and they turned out great. We are not professional models by any means, but his calm demeanour and friendly presence made it easy. He also does an amazing job and is very talented.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are professional family photos worth it?

Yes, family photos taken by a professional will capture you at your best and showcase the unique personalities in your family. Time passes quickly and a professional photo captures a special moment so it can be celebrated for years to come.

How long should a family photo shoot last?

Mini family photo sessions can be as short as 20 minutes and full session can be 1-2 hours. Consider the ages when planning the session length — if young kids are involved, they are likely to become fussy after 30-45 minutes.

Who should be in family photos?

Consider taking multiple sets of photos, one with just immediate family and then also another with extended family, partners, spouses, etc. It’s best to use the time to take multiple images since everyone is already available.

How often should you take family photos?

Every 2-3 years is a good guideline, especially for families with younger children. Consider doing a “mini-session” where a professional photographer can capture some great pictures within 20-30 minutes.

How many pictures do you need for a 1 hour session?

A one hour session will probably result in 200-300 photos, depending on the photographer. From there, a smaller number will be selected and carefully edited for your final photo package.

How do I start a family photoshoot?

Start by getting the “main” photo that you want, which typically is a photo with the full family together. After this you can break the group into smaller sections or do individual portraits.

What age is best for family photos?

A professional photographer can create fantastic photos with families of all ages. Younger kids often become fussy within 30 minutes or so, which means there is a shorter time window to capture all the images.
