Formal Family Portraits ~ Family Photographer in CT

Family with 3 young daughters pose in front of bokeh backdropThis family has the sweetest three little girls and Mom told me that they hadn’t had their photos taken in years. Their youngest is just 3 years old though, so I’m sure they’ve had other things occupying their time. But now that she was ready to get them in front of a camera again, she wanted to do something different. She wanted a formal family portrait that would complement their home decor. So she went shopping for beautiful dresses, and I got to work on creating a holiday-inspired backdrop. This family portrait is now hanging as a 30×40 inch canvas in their home.

7 year old girl in pretty dress with bokeh lightsThis 7-year-old beauty was so graceful. You can see that she has left all babyness behind and is becoming a stunning young lady. She has the classic 2nd-grade smile right now though, with many baby teeth missing and the adult teeth just emerging, so she was self-conscious and decided to give me just a grin.

She has her Daddy’s eyes and loved dancing with him (see that further down the page). I love that you can see the remnants of a manicure, which so many little girls her age show off.

So often the last photo many parents have with just the two of them is from their wedding. This photograph is one that all three girls and even the future grandchildren will cherish.

I’m so glad that I was able to create beautiful portraits as a family photographer in CT for this family. If you would like to get your family photographed soon, contact me today. I’d love to create something that matches your vision so that you can hang a gorgeous portrait of your family in your home too.
