This might be hard to understand. I photograph families in this way all the time. . . what would be considered posed and lifestyle photo sessions. I hire photographers to photograph my family in this way. But what makes my heart sing and my creative juices flow as an artist? Documentary family photography.

 I realized each and every time I photograph someone, I am asking them to be vulnerable and open up to me in front of the camera, to capture them in the moment in a way that can be preserved. Here are 10 things I want my client to know about this process that can help put them at ease.
