The holidays are a time of togetherness and what better way to celebrate than by giving a gift that captures the love and joy of your family?! An extended family session is more than just an opportunity to get everyone in one photograph – it’s a chance to create memories that last beyond generations. Imagine having professional-quality photos of grandparents laughing with grandchildren, siblings catching up, and all the little moments that highlight the love shared between family members. Last year, one of my recurring clients decided to gift her mom with an extended family photo session and this fall, with the stunning backdrop of chaning leaves, we brough that gift to life. It was incredible to capture these moments as they gathered together that they’ll now have forever.
Extended family sessions are especially priceless in my mind because we often miss the opportunity to capture meaningful moments between generations. In the hustle of daily life, many families rely on quick phone pictures that rarely get printed or framed leaving so many wonderful memories buried in digital albums. An extended family photo session changes that by creating a beautiful keepsake of your family’s unique bond. Beyond the stunning photographs, the session itself becomes a meaningful experience. Spending a morning together, sharing laughs, and reminiscing during the session is a gift in its own right. To make it even more special, you can extend the day with a family brunch, cozy dinner, or just extra time spent together since you’ve already made the effort to gather for photos.
If scheduling a session for the holidays feels tricky, consider gifting a photo session with a gift certificate. This allows your loved ones to choose the perfect date that fits everyone’s schedule. I even offer gift certificates that can be framed and presented as a thoughtful gift under the tree. Once the session is complete and you’ve received your final gallery, you can replace the certificate with a favorite photo from the session, turning it into a lasting keepsake that serves as a reminder of the love shared that day.
The holidays are just around the corner so now is the perfect time to take action! Whether you’re gifting a session to your parents, grandparents, or treating yourself to an unforgettable family experience, now is the perfect time to start planning. Let me help you create timeless images that your family will cherish forever.
