Backyard Extended Family Session | Bedford NH

A backyard family session is the undoubtably the best! There’s something deeply special about photographing a family in the comfort of their own home. Surrounded by familiar sights and sounds, the session was so much more fun. Recently, we had the joy of capturing an extended family session. Right in their backyard! The setting that was as warm and welcoming as the family themselves. There’s no place like home, and this is especially true when it comes to family portraits. A backyard session offers a sense of intimacy and personal connection that’s hard to replicate elsewhere. The space is familiar, filled with memories, and often has sentimental value that adds depth to the photos.

For this session, the family chose their backyard as the perfect setting to gather multiple generations. The weather held out for us during this session as it was calling for rain all week and rain around our session time, but we decided to keep it and the rain held off, with a soft breeze and no rain with over cast skies, we will take it! Having a session at home basically allows everyone to relax and enjoy the simplicity and comfort of the experience. It results in genuine smiles and natural interactions.

The more extended family sessions I capture, the more it is clear that these are more than just a photo session—it was a celebration of family. Grandparents, parents, children, and even the family dog came together, creating a joyful atmosphere that was contagious. I am so honored to have met this family and to have captured these moments for them. I hope they LOVE their photos!

If you’re considering an extended family photo session, your backyard might just be the perfect place to create lasting memories. I would be honored to help you capture these special moments in the comfort of your own home, ensuring that the images reflect the unique story of your family. Contact me to schedule your session, and let’s create something beautiful together.
