Thank you for your interest in a family photography session with La Vie Photography! 

Lifestyle photography is so unique, with a goal of capturing candid photos of your family in every day moments. As the photographer, I aim to capture the genuine love within your family, so that when you look back on your photos, you're transported back to these very special moments in your life.

Location

We can work together to decide on where to shoot your session. There are several options, including: 

• Ideally your session would take place at an outdoor location. Provides a unique setting with lots of natural light. I am happy to provide local options, if needed. 

• If preferred, we can have your sessions at an indoor location that provides a comfortable feeling and allows for a variety for photos. There must be open space, natural light & depending on the location, permission or reservation may be required.

I outline all my favourite location types here on my blog.

Time 

• For outdoor sessions, most session will take place 1-2 hours before sunset (golden hour). This provides an incredible backdrop for your photos.

• If that time doesn’t work, we can also do 1-2 hours after sunrise. However, depending on the date - this can be pretty early. But I’m happy to get up early if you are!

• If we are photographing indoors, late morning to early afternoon is ideal (between 10:00AM -1:00PM) for the best natural light.  

Worried about timing for an outdoor session with little ones? Here are my tips to prepare your toddler for golden hour.

Length

Don't worry - I work efficiently! My sessions typically last between 45 minutes to 1 hour, capturing a large and diverse collection of photos. Check out my portfolio to see what I mean,

What to Wear

Your outfit should be comfortable and reflect who you are. I always recommend your family’s outfits that compliment each other without matching. Neutrals always look great and if you can, avoid having too many different patterns. I outline my main tips on my blog called: what to wear to your lifestyle family photoshoot. If you need some inspiration Pinterest has an endless supply of ideas!

Props

They are not required, but if you have something in mind, I’d be happy to work with you.
