Every now and then a family asks if select extended family members can come to my photo studio and take some portraits and I love getting this request! It’s amazing to see three generations in one photo, something that seems like it was in high fashion years ago but is less so now with families living far apart from each other. In today’s case, the mom arranged the session when everyone was in town together, so both grandmas came and joined the fun. I will truly say it was a delight to have them.
Baby boy was 5 months when I shot this, so needed a little help sitting up but he was just so cute. I mean, look at those cheeks and tell me he is not darling! I keep it warm in the studio so that the kiddos stay comfortable and he got the jolliest rosy cheeks when he’d wiggle around. Enjoy this sweet family – how gorgeous are the grandmas? This kid has some good genes, I tell you.
We started off doing some Christmas portraits with baby boy solo and then some with his parents. The second half of the session was the baby with his parents together, some solo shots with each parent and then the grandmas. I hope the family treasures these for years to come, I know that I thoroughly enjoyed taking them.
