Family Portraits - Lincoln, CA

Last week you saw part one of Tania's family, now it is time for the casual part two! After a quick outfit change and the search for the right musical instrument, we began this half of the session inside their home. There were music themed posters all over the wall, and I thought it was just the perfect spot to feature dad and his girls playing their guitars.I asked the girls to find any sheet music that they could find for this next photo, and it became a full family scavenger hunt. Dad was pulling out his guitar books, while the girls were finding any piano related things they could find. I just LOVE this one so much!
We headed outside for a few more photos before calling it a day. These are a few more to add to their collection to use for their first album cover as an awesome family band :)
We couldn't allow dad to have ALL the attention, so we pulled mom Tania back in to get a few shots of just her and the girls together.
But you can't have a family portrait session at home without ALL members of the family, including those furry four legged ones! Such a trooper!

Thank you SO much for getting in contact with me Tania. I had a blast working with you and your family!

Family Portraits - Lincoln, CA

Tania came my way through my aunt, who has been helping spread the word of my growing business quite proactively. We scheduled a family portrait session together at her home with her husband and two daughters. Everything went so smoothly, I would strongly suggest considering shooting in your own home for anyone's family portraits! It was such a comfortable environment, as well as created some very personal portraits for them to keep for years! Here is just the first set of the images, the second to come next week!I LOVE this next shot. Since we dragged the bench from their front porch to the middle of their yard, we made as much use of it as we could.
We moved on through to the back yard for a few more photos in their classy wear before doing the break downs. Seriously, consider your own back yard for photos!
The family is a group of musicians (which you saw on the father's day sneak peek post, as well as more to come in next week's post) so a formal photo around the piano seemed very fitting!
While the girls were changing, we stepped back outside for a few mom & dad portraits. Always something that should be included in every family portrait session :)
Stay tuned for next week's post with part two of this fun bunch full of music, pets, and love. I cannot wait to put the post together for you!
