The Snyders: Family Portraits in the Comfort of Home

Uncategorized

There’s a certain magic in photographing families within the cozy confines of their own home. It’s a space where laughter echoes off the walls, where memories are made, and where bonds shine the brightest. Stepping into someone’s home isn’t just about finding the perfect backdrop; it’s about capturing the heart and soul of a family within the familiar embrace of their own environment.

There’s an undeniable sense of comfort that comes from being in familiar surroundings, and it’s this comfort that allows families to relax and be themselves in front of the camera. But the best part? Seeing the love between family members. Whether it’s giggles during a play fight or a sweet moment before bedtime, capturing these feelings is what makes family photos so great.

Emily trusted me to capture their journey from pregnancy, to the first couple months after Olivia was born. She wanted more of a documentary approach to her photos, which made it so easy for me to capture their true personalities. I got to sit back and watch the magic of their family unfold, with minimal direction/prompting. I think that’s every photographers dream! I love to give direction when needed, but this family is so effortless that they didn’t even need it.
