Relaxed, Family Style Portraits
Watch out. Cuteness below. Another example of indoor play. My family lives outside of Houston which could wrestle with Charleston for heat and humidity. During a recent summer visit we were looking for a day and time for some family images and I scouted a few spots that were unique to the area. But it was really, really hot, so we did a fruit basket turnover and skipped the great outdoors in favor of air conditioning. If the smiles are any indication, I think we chose wisely.
Given my folks house is clean, clutter free and design abundant, but I think there is personality in every space that most likely matches the owner. We have photographed a bride in her closet full of her fancy shoes and she looked beyond happy. In this case, the little rocking chair that my niece is in was the one that my brother and I had growing up. The light brown leather chair was the one that my grand-mother always sat in. I am pretty sure it as because it matched her coloring and she knew she was looking awesome in it. Most of our homes have memories build into the walls and furniture.
Consider a home session. You might be surprised.
