Three Reasons to hire a Photographer

Get. The. Pictures.

Hire. The. Photographer.

With cameras on our phones and our phones glued in our hands, every second of every day becomes a photographable, memorable moment. So, this may put you on the fence when it comes to hiring a professional photographer, considering you have thousands of digital pictures right at your finger tips. But family photography is bigger than that. Here are my top three reasons for looking for a family photographer in your area.

  1. When is the last time you, yes yooouuuuu, were in a photo with your children? And not a selfie at the zoo kind of a picture, but a beautiful, connected, loving photo with your children. As a Mom, you are trying to do it all, wearing about 16 different hats a day and getting into photos with your babies might be at the very bottom of your list, if it makes your list at all. I know you have thousands of images of your littles ones doing thousands of things. I am sure you have plenty of photos and videos of your partner sharing time with your babies, but not all of us are documented with our families. Here is your push to get in the photos.
  2. Candid and natural family photography is an art. Hiring a professional photographer spans past the smiling portraits by using prompts and guided engagement to bring out the real, life-like connection among your family. We want more than a posed, pretty picture and a smile. We want to bottle up the details and the chaos and and the quiet.
  3. Prints. Yes, printed photographs are the touchable, tangible pieces of your family photography session that are printed, shipped and live in your home. Digital images are great, but photographs are created to live on paper.
