We love this combo Senior and Family Portrait Session. This time of year we are all reminded of what is most important and this is family. Pictures help us capture the memories of all the good times spent together. Everyone’s lives are so busy so turning this senior portrait session into an opportunity for family pictures we an easy decision. 

Danielle selected their attire and color palette to perfectly compliment their new home and its decor. She also chose the front two-story foyer for the location, so it would be visible to anyone visiting their home. This portrait will serve as a constant reminder of their happy family as their children go off to college.

We started the session with Andrew’s senior portraits in the garden with a variety of classic looks. Andrew was fantastic to photograph and enjoyed the speed of our photographic process so much so that he almost forgot we were actually taking pictures! Brianna joined her brother for a few poses in our gazebo. We created matching poses that would look great to be displayed side by side. 

Our favorite moments of this session, and Danielle’s favored moment too, were captured when they were just hanging out together. A moment in time when they both were candidly laughing at each other and enjoying their time together. These are moments rarely captured, but oh so loved. 

The overcast lighting was a great base of exposure and with our additive lighting techniques, we were able to create the feeling of sunlight and warmth in all images while trying to beat the fast-diminishing evening light. 

Give us a call today to schedule your family’s next portrait session!

This Brannan Family Portrait Session was photographed in the gardens of our Richmond, VA studio. We met Melissa while photographing her sister’s wedding this fall. We were delighted when she made the decision to have us create an oil portrait of her granddaughters and her dog Henry for the holidays. She also wanted to use an image for her Christmas cards. The idea was to have some fun candid shots in one outfit playing with Henry, a holiday outfit, and then one outfit for the main oil portrait. We choose the red dresses for the oil pose, barefoot with Henry with a neutral green background to compliment Melissa’s existing portraits she has collected over the years.

The session was a blast, Ollie stole the show with her personality and spunk. Henry was not far behind and the mix made of one fabulous session. Ainsley was a collection of poise and grace in front of the camera. 

We started with the girls on our famous brick pathway and created the most amazing shots of them both individually and together. Once they were warmed up we quickly moved onto the main pose, seated with perfect smiles, but very natural, and a perfect Henry between them. After we completed the main portrait pose we included Melissa and Scott, even one of Scott and just the girls. Then we photographed Henry alone and then had the girls change clothes and finished the session with fun candids running around and playing with Henry.

We are so thankful that Melissa made the decision to document and preserve this moment in time. These are memories the whole family will treasure for years to come.
