What is Lifestyle Photography?

I get this question a lot…. Why lifestyle photography?

The dictionary definition is: Lifestyle photography is “a kind of photography which mainly aims to capture people in situations, real-life events or milestones in an artistic manner, and the art of the everyday.”

However my short  answer: Life-documented.

In nearly every lifestyle session I have booked, the concerns are the house being a mess, The lawn isn’t mowed, or they don’t have the best… whatever it is. 

These session are not about being magazine perfect. It's about  the small things in your life that make you smile and they are the everyday things you will miss years from now.

Be it the morning snuggles,  the mismatched socks, your little running around with no pants on! So I want to capture your littles being little so that means all the make believe, tea parties or building a fort out of cushions.

There is so many things worth remembering in day to day life, and I want to capture those for you. Images become more invaluable with the memories that are attached to them.

Newborn Lifestyle is just the same as a family lifestyle session, except you have a newborn. Let me capture that nursery you worked so hard for the last 9 months planning and creating. Siblings adjusting to the new family member in the home they know and love. New mothers enjoy these session because they are home. Everything they need is right where it needs to be. There is no stress, just relaxation. I bring a few things with newborn, but if you want to include something, you can just go to the next room and grab it… Easy peasy lemon squeezie.

Don’t forget, if you have four legged fur babies running around. They often are the biggest part of a family, but the easiest to be forgotten about during posed family photos. 

I love to capture your family in real time. I love documenting and providing you with these special images.
