Summertime is the season in which families gather together. Whether that be together on a vacation, spending time together, or in this extended family’s case, at a photo session! When Railee contacted me about doing an extended family photography session in Lethbridge, I jumped at the opportunity. I have photographed a lot of extended family on wedding days but creating an entire photo session dedicated to having photos done as one big family, is something I really enjoy photographing.
Family is something to cherish. Having all your family in one place is something even greater to cherish. While in the moment, it may all feel like chaos, in the end it’s always worth it!
At every extended family photo session, I always ensure each individual family and couple, have their own time to shine in front to the camera. I also encourage lots of breaks and movement throughout the session. I never want these sessions to feel forced or exceptionally long.
Choosing an outdoor setting in the summer in Lethbridge like Popson Park allows for natural exploration! I don’t think there is an angle that doesn’t have a gorgeous view! I love that kids and families can explore and that there is a beautiful variety in landscape. Any location by the water in summertime is always a personal favourite of mine!
Thank you again to this amazing family for allowing me to spend time with you on a warm summer evening capturing new memories for you all!
