Together for Family Pictures at the Holidays: Fairport NY Family Photographers

The last time this group updated their family portrait was in 2013. It was at a wedding, so the family picture was to be expected.

The rented AirBnB became the setting for an extended family portrait session. It was a surprise for many of the family members who were all coming from various parts of North America.

These family portraits included a lot of laughing, as well as both sweet and silly moments. Scroll down to the last image and you’ll find a photograph of everyone diving into an apple pie. This was planned as a tribute to their Grandmother - who sadly passed not too long ago.

It was her special recipe that was used to bake the pie. It was such a beautiful way to honor and include a cherished loved one in your family pictures.

Their joy was contagious, and their family pictures reflected every ounce of it. It was an honor to photograph this extended family session for them.

3 Tips for Amazing Extended Family Pictures

Webster NY Large Family Portraits

Capturing your extended family in a photograph is a special task that can yield stunning results with the right approach. As photographers for over 10 years, we’ve learned a few tips to help you achieve memorable images that reflect your family’s unique bond.

Here are three tips for making your extended family photos shine:

What to Wear in Family Pictures: Coordinate, Don't Match

For standout family pictures, opt for a coordinated color palette rather than matching outfits. Choose complementary colors and similar styles to achieve a unified look without everyone wearing the same thing. This approach helps each family member shine while maintaining harmony in the group shot.

Planning Your Family Portraits: Timing Matters

The best lighting for portraits often happens during the golden hours—early morning or late afternoon. Scheduling your family session during these times provides soft, flattering light and often ensures that kids are more content and cooperative.

Embrace the Candid Moments as They Happen

While posed family pictures are important, some of the most memorable photos come from spontaneous interactions. Let your family play, laugh, and interact naturally. These candid family picture moments truly capture your family’s unique spirit and connections.

Ready to create lasting memories? Book your extended family photo session today! Let’s make some magic together.

Family Pictures at Chase Farms

Elevate the experience and capture lasting mementos of each Halloween memory at our Chase Farms Candid Mini Session.

Taking professional pictures of your child's Halloween costume is a wonderful idea. It helps you capture their creativity and imagination. Kids and parents alike put thought into choosing and making their costumes. Halloween costumes capture fleeting childhood moments. They immortalize your child's unique personality in their costume.

Our annual Candid Mini Session at Chase Farms ensures that this time in their lives is preserved for future you, creating a lasting memory for you and your child to treasure.

Investing in professional photos of your child's Halloween costume adds magic to the experience. Your kids get to have fun in their costume one extra time, and you get to stand back and let someone else worry about making sure a picture was taken. Instead of using quick smartphone pics, we can create images that bring out the fun of Halloween.

What could be better than that… besides eating all of your child’s Halloween candy?

Fall Family Portraits with a One Year Old: Fairport NY Photographers

This family portrait session with this newly minted one year old was adorable.

Mom and Dad are a former wedding couple of ours, so it was an honor to photograph their first family portraits taken as a family of 3.

That wrinkly nose smile gets me every time I see these family pictures. And there’s such curiosity in her face as she explores the fall setting around her. It’s so sweet.

I have no doubt that curiosity isn’t going anywhere, anytime soon. Thank you to this crew for such a sweet afternoon photographing your family.

Candid Family Pictures at Home: Fairport NY Photographers

They’re in their 9th year of annual family portraits. We’ve taken so many family pictures of these 3 and their pets, that we can line a photo from every year and watch their growth like you would in a flip book. It’s fantastic.

This year, their Fall wildflowers were beautiful, and they had apples to pick from their trees. They even each took a turn on the zipline that stretches across one a pond.

They enjoy a blend of posed family photographs and candid family pictures. Their family pictures tell the story of who they are and what they enjoy together.

And we’re the lucky ones that get to capture these family pictures, this story, every year.

Family Pictures at Tinker Park

What do you do when every single time you have a family portrait session in the fall, it rains?

Well, after countless reschedules and the holiday season quickly approaching? You go forward with your family mini sessions at Tinker Park anyway. In the rain.

Because yes, fall is a beautiful time of year for family pictures, but any photographer in Rochester will tell you, it’s makes for a busy schedule. Add in weather delays and you have a recipe for chaos.

And so, with a threat of a drizzle, we went ahead with our Tinker Park Candid Mini Sessions. In the end, all of the family’s who came for fall portraits had fun, and even stayed mostly dry!

So if I could give any advice to those looking for Fall family pictures - it’d be this: Plan your family pictures for early in the season. Plan back up dates. And plan for playing in the rain.

Or if those ideas don’t work for you - plan for Spring instead.

Family Pictures with Extended Family in Fairport NY

Not gonna lie, watching this family grow up in the family pictures we take is awesome. From new babies to lost baby teeth, photographing their milestones as a family has been so much fun.

This time, they wanted to add momentos to honor those whom they’ve lost along the way. They chose to use the two small clocks in the first portrait to represent those beloved family members. We thought that was a beautiful idea and perfect tribute.

You know you work with the right families when you get a text the night before from Mom that says "He just lost his first too! It's a good time for pictures!" (Scroll down to see that one, it’s my favorite from this family session.)

You could want the perfect pictures or you could want that perfect photo of that first little gap in their smile. There's no wrong answer, but I know what I'd pick!
