Okay, hear me out: family sessions aren’t just about the kids. Or the group shots. Or the coordinated outfits and chaos and snack breaks (although yes, all of that is part of it).
They’re also about you two.
The couple. The team. The original love story that started the whole dang family in the first place.
So when I’m doing family sessions, I always try to sneak in a few couple photos—even if it’s just for a minute or two. And here’s why it matters.
You Deserve to Be in the Frame (Together!)
When’s the last time you had a nice photo together that wasn’t a selfie or taken by a well-meaning relative who somehow cut off your feet?
Exactly.
Even if we only grab a few shots, those moments of just the two of you—laughing, snuggling, having a quiet second—are worth it. They’re the kind of photos you’ll look back on and think, “Dang, we still got it.” (Spoiler alert: you do.)
It’s Not Extra. It’s Essential.
Some of my favorite moments from family sessions are those little couple interludes:
- A quick forehead kiss while the kids chase squirrels in the background
- Holding hands like it’s still date number three
- A spontaneous laugh over how fast your youngest ran out of frame again
It’s romantic. It’s real. And honestly, it’s the heartbeat of your family story.
Built-In Mini Couple Session
The best part? You don’t need to book a separate session to capture it.
I’ll guide you into a few quick poses, make you laugh, and—boom—you’ve got updated couple photos that aren’t from your wedding day.
So Next Time You Book a Family Session…
Expect a few shots of just you two. I’ll make it quick, comfortable, and totally painless. Because your love deserves to be documented too—not just in the “we wrangled everyone for this group photo” kind of way, but in the “we’re still crazy about each other” kind of way.
📸 Ready for your own feel-good family session with some sweet couple moments mixed in? Let’s make it happen!
