If your new year resolution is to better document your family, it can be a little overwhelming to dive into the world of photography. How many photography sessions should you book in a year? What moments are worth capturing? My job as a photographer is to make those questions as simple and easy to answer as possible. If you’re thinking about getting photos taken in 2022, there are three different types of photo sessions that I consider the most important-

One Family Session – Regardless of what season you’d like to take your photos in, I recommend that you have at least one family session a year. These are great because you can get all the photos you need all at once. From updated family photos to replace old photos in your home to individual kid photos, it’s nice to have one big session that covers everything. I recommend one family session a year because it keeps your photos up to date and captures a lot of the growth that happens.

Milestone Sessions- These sessions will look different every year and for every family. Some families will have lots of milestone sessions and some might not have any. Milestone sessions are Senior photos, Newborn photos, Maternity photos, Cake Smash photos, etc. I love milestone sessions because they capture the big moments that are happening in 2022 for you and your family.

Mini Session – These are Blossom (which are coming up!), Morro Bay, or Christmas Tree photos – These are easy breezy 15 minute sessions that provide a nice variety to the photos in your home. These are also a nice addition because you can stagger this session 6 months after your family sessions. Time flies and kids change so quickly so it’s nice to have a second session that captures those changes and gives you a chance to experiment with location and clothing options.

If you’re looking to book a mini session my Blossom sessions are now open for booking! Schedule a call with me!
