Playful Family Session in Washington DC
Here I am sharing another blog post from a session I absolutely LOVED!
This playful family’s session was at the Bishop’s Garden at the National Cathedral in Washington, DC.
We started off with family portraits (9 times out of 10 I will ask you to pick up your children for these), moved around to get moments of connection, portraits of the children, mom and dad, and parents with the kids.
I’m a lifestyle family photographer and what I know time and time again, children want to play!
I want you to absolutely love your photos from your session and I know you will when we let high expectations go and let children play.
What I love about lifestyle family sessions is that they are relaxed and I tend to follow your child’s lead as much as possible.
At the beginning of the family session I focus on getting the “safe” shots of everyone looking at the camera and portraits of the children. Those two poses to be the hardest to get towards the end of the session if the kids lose interest so I try to get those within the first few minutes. These two girls were so much fun and they had a lot of energy and seemed to want to just play with each other and with mom and dad. The best part is that they didn’t seem to get bored of getting their photos taken!
