Family Portraits

What is Family Portrait Photography?

Family portrait photography captures an entire family and creates a treasured photo that can be shared with friends and other loved ones. Investing in a family portrait photoshoot gives you and your loved ones images to look back on for years to come and celebrates the bond you all share.

Why Get Family Portraits?

Family portraits make wonderful gifts for relatives or for loved ones hundreds of miles away. Portraits can also be used for holidays cards, family announcements, and more. The most popular use for family portrait photography is to keep the captured photos hanging somewhere special for all to see. Family portraits are a great way to connect the past with the present, as well. Grandparents can share old family portraits with grandkids, or adult children can recreate a photo their parents took of them when they were young as a gift.

Family Portrait Photography Packages

I’m happy to offer three convenient package tiers for family portrait photography to suit you and your family’s needs. No matter which tier you choose, you’ll receive high-quality digital image files to print and share online with loved ones.

Family Portrait Mini Session: The Family Portrait Mini Session is a 30-minute session perfect for smaller families with babies or children. I recommend this option for groups of 3-4 family members who are looking for a quick, easy photoshoot but still want to capture beautiful memories. The Family Portrait Mini Session is ideal for getting great shots of all the family members together with varied poses in a shorter window of time. 

Family Portrait Session I: The Family Portrait Session I is a 60-minute session perfect for families who’d like to include their pets. I recommend this option for groups of 4-6 family members looking to spend a little more time together in a photoshoot to really capture the dynamic connection between each person. The Family Portrait Session I is ideal for getting the entire family together, giving everyone time to feel comfortable in front of a camera, and then capturing candid and posed shots of the members of the family together.

Family Portrait Session II: The Family Portrait Session II is a two-hour session perfect for larger or multi-generational families. I recommend this option for groups of up to 8 family members who don’t mind spending the time to organize family members in different groups, poses, and shots to achieve timeless keepsakes for the whole clan. The Family Portrait Session II is ideal for families with several children or grandchildren who want a full-family portrait done with multiple generations in one—or several—great photos.

My Experience

Since founding Chris Corrao: Stories & Portraits, I’ve had the honor of photographing many different families, their children, and their pets. Each family is unique: they have their own dynamics, their own quirks, and their own traditions. My goal as your family portrait photographer is to capture your authentic bond—I strive to find what makes your family your family and have it shine through in every photograph I deliver to you. 

From capturing small families with infant children to full family portraits with three generations included, my objective is to give you and your family keepsakes to treasure for years to come. Throughout the years of growth and change, the family portraits we capture together are meant to last a lifetime and give everyone pictured a reminder of the love and connection you all share.

Absolutely in love with our first official set of family photos!”

For the Whole Family—Fur and Feathers, Too!

Pets are an integral part of your family, too! I’ve worked extensively with many different types of animals, from rescued farm animals like cows and chickens to pets like dogs and cats. As an animal lover and fellow pet owner I look forward to meeting new animal friends and welcome you to include your furry family members on the family portrait session you choose.

For the best photos, I recommend choosing Family Portrait Session I or Family Portrait Session II when including your pets to allow them time to feel comfortable with posing alongside family members.
