Should you take your family portraits at home?

September 5, 2019

In the planning of a family portrait, I’m often asked on the phone:

“Where do other people take their pictures?”

I can always make recommendations for a location but I think it’s always better to choose a location that has significance to the family if possible. For that reason, it can actually be a great idea to have the portraits created at the client’s home where the family has spent so much time together. Aside from the memories that the family shares at home it’s extremely convenient for the family to not have to go far for the portrait. Around the holidays, traveling and social obligations stretch time very thin for people so by taking the photographs at home, it saves time and reduces stress.

This family loves having their grandma’s home be the typical meeting place for dinners, birthdays, barbecues and just about everything. All of the grandchildren have spent countless hours playing with cousins and spending time with family at this home. Think how much more meaningful the portrait is for them as time goes on knowing that it was created on the front porch!

his portrait was created in the client’s backyard. One son was leaving town the next day and they had limited time to have the entire family together so taking the time to plan out a location was eliminated.

This family portrait was created in the front of their beautiful home on Christmas Eve because there was no other day or time that would work. With everyone’s schedules being so busy, not everyone could go very far or devote much time to being at the session so being at the house was the best option.

Along with the larger groups at home, individual families are photographed as well.
