There are a lot of Baltimore family photographers who would love to photograph your family! However, not all are out for the same quality experience with their clients. As a Baltimore photographer, I offer yearly photo opts for families. Something lowkey and enjoyable while capturing both candid and pose photos. I create an easy experience for my clients so that they keep coming back year after year. And they do!
Check out the Crist family’s many galleries from the past 6 years as I share why I am so passionate having year family photos.
Before anything else, I need to put in a plug for my lifetime discount as a Baltimore photographer! This is something that sets me apart from others, and I am proud to offer it. Primarily I am a wedding photographer, and for couples who book with me for their wedding get a lifetime discount on future sessions. This includes couples photos, anniversary pictures, maternity and newborn sessions, as well as family sessions! So, if you aren’t married yet, consider using me as your photographer and getting this crazy discount.
I typically hold family sessions at least twice a year. Once in the Spring and again in the Fall. These are mini sessions at a pre-determined location. You won’t get as much time with me and as much customization. However, these mini sessions are more affordable and you will get about 20-30 images.
Another option for yearly family photos is to book a family session. I hold family sessions throughout the entire year. During wedding season, I am more booked on the weekends, but I can still work evening family sessions into my schedule. For exact dates, inquire and we will work something out!
Having a family session gives you a lot more than minis do. You will have more time with me and my camera, I have resources for outfits and will help you put together a cohesive look. In addition, we have more flexibility with location. A lot of families, especially those with young children, love having pictures taken at their home. While others enthuse over a little adventure downtown or in a park.
Time is fleeting! As a photographer, I strongly believe in capturing the little moments. And I know as I become a mom, I will constantly be pulling out my phone to capture my little girl’s yawns and smiles. And as wonderful as those daily candid photos are, professional family pictures are still important.
Don’t look at family photos as a chore. Instead think of it as quality time with your favorite people! No distractions, you just have to dance and play together in a stunning location. When this becomes a yearly tradition, it will become something your children will cherish and strive to do with you in their later teen and young adult years.
When you get professional photos done, you are more likely to display them. Meaning you are more likely to look at them often. Time stands still in photos and you are able to relive those sweet memories and remember how young your family once was and how far you have come.
Everyone seems to have a desire to know their roots. By photographing your family yearly, you are creating an heirloom for future generations. They are images that your children can carry on to preserve your legacy. So that your family can easily look back and know where they came from and be proud of their family.
