I love these kind of family shoots!
Often when people hear that one of their family members has booked a photographer for their family reunion, I think they often just expect the following kind of posed photos. And those photos can be great to have as well! I very much know, because my family is spread across two continents and four, sometimes five or six countries. They’re important but not very fun photos.
And that’s why I like to take the following photos as well on my family photo shoots! I think these are really the photos that you end up cherishing.
With the Murphy’s, this was a common narrative. A first reunion after many years of travel restrictions. Kids grow so much in half a year, nevermind two or three years! So having the whole family come together for this photo shoot was not only great for the photos, but also a fun day out in the sun. Kids were running around, and the adults were trying to keep up. Even if some, *ahem, family members were a little hungover that day from indulging themselves in some lovely Irish whiskey! Haha, I’d be guilty of that too!
“And that’s why I like to take the following photos as well on my family photo shoots! I think these are really the photos that you end up cherishing.”
I am very proud to say though, that such a common feedback I get after these family photo shoots is either, “Wow, that was so much fun, I didn’t expect that at all!” or “That was so uncomplicated!”
And that’s what I love to hear. These shoots are great memories for the family, but they also need to be fun and it’s always nice to look at photos of people enjoying themselves.
If you’d like to make a booking or enquire for a family photo shoot in or around Cork city, you can contact me here. Otherwise, check out this family photo shoot I did at the Castlemartyr resort, or this family and baby photo shoot I did here.
And remember, besides family portrait photography, I also photograph the following:
• Couples Photography in Cork
• Newborn Baby Photography in Cork
• Wedding Photography in Cork
• and more!
