It had been a while since we had gotten together to take family portraits. My guys weren't too keen on the idea, but they did it for me because they know it's important. I had them dressed in black and white for a timeless look and kept the atmosphere relaxed.
I set up my basement studio with some simple props and tested the lighting before inviting everyone in. I used my smartphone to take the pictures and had to work on getting the shots just right - especially when trying to pose myself as well.
Even our family cat, Bellatrix, made an appearance, and with everyone's help, we managed to get a great shot of her in these timeless family portraits.
Looking at the images on my computer, I can see how much my son has grown. He's 18 now and becoming his own person. It makes me wonder how much time we have left before he's off on his own. My husband and I have also grown and matured over the years, and our bodies show the journey we've been through together.
Taking these family photos is a way for us to capture our love for each other and create memories that will last a lifetime. I want to turn these images into wall art that we can display in our home, a reminder of our bond and the legacy we are creating together. Timeless moments like these are what family is all about.
