Most people don’t plan to squeeze in family portraits while on vacation. But when my sister-in-law and her beautiful family came to town, there was no way I was letting them leave without capturing this moment for them. The kids, my nephews and niece, have grown so much since their last session. And with how fast time flies, I knew we had to make this happen.
But first? A last-minute shopping trip! One of the services I love offering is wardrobe styling, so naturally my sister-in-law got the full VIP treatment. We made a Target one and pulled together a summery, soft color palette with shades of peach, blue, and pink. I’m obsessed with the colorful, striped dress and hair clips we found for my niece which tied everyone’s outfits together.
Sure, it was a bit rushed. But the laughter, the chaos, and the sweet sibling moments made it so worth it. There were headlocks, a pile-up, and impromptu dance breaks – basically everything that makes family sessions unforgettable.
That’s the magic of it all.
Here at Block Portrait Studios, we roll with the chaos, chase the giggles, and capture the in-betweens. And yes, we’ll still get the perfect family portrait, the one you’ll display front and center in your living room, dining room, or entryway.
So whether you’ve been planning for months or you’ve got family in town for a few days, we’ve got you. We’ll help you style outfits, plan colors, pick the perfect wall to hang your portraits, and we’ll pose and place everyone with care. Your only job? Show up in the outfits we planned together.
We’ll take care of the rest and turn those sibling headlocks into heartwarming memories you’ll treasure for years to come.
