An Unforgettable Family Photo Session

Every photo session at Centennial Beach has its own unique story, but there's one family experience that stands out. This family photo session almost didn't happen! The family was stuck in traffic for 2 hours coming to Tsawwassen from Vancouver. When they arrived, we hit the ground running! Both girls (sisters) were absolutely amazing in taking direction and having fun together. We took photos the second they got out of the car while we were walking down to the beach. Despite starting the session late, both mom and dad were relaxed and we made the most of every second we had together! The golden hour glow was magic and mom's dress may have been my favorite I've ever photographed. So thankful for this amazing family for choosing me to capture these moments for them.

Why Family Photos Are So Important: Golden Hour Photos at Centennial Beach

As a mom, I know how important it is to capture every moment with my family. Whether it's a small milestone or just a moment of joy, I try my best to capture it all. That's why when the Bazzard family reached out to me for a family photo session, I didn't hesitate. We decided to take the photos at Centennial Beach in Tsawwassen during golden hour, and it was an experience I'll never forget. In this blog post, I want to share with you why family photos are so important, and how this photo session was a beautiful reminder of that.

1. Memories: The first reason why family photos are so important is that they capture memories that will last a lifetime. When you look back at them, you'll remember how you felt, what you were doing, and who you were with. That's exactly what the Bazzard family wanted to do with our photo session. They wanted to make sure that they had beautiful photos to look back on when their daughter is all grown up and they can reminisce about their happy days spent together.

2. Connection: When you take family photos, you're not just taking pictures of faces, you're capturing the connection between family members. You'll see how much you love each other and cherish each other's company. That's exactly what happened during our photo session at Centennial Beach. The love between this family was palpable, and it was a beautiful reminder of why family is so important.

3. Milestones: Another reason why family photos are so important is that they capture milestones in your life. Whether it's your child's first birthday or their first day of kindergarten, these moments are important to remember. In our photo session, we captured the Bazzard family's daughter playing in the sand, searching for seashells, and laughing with her parents. These are the moments that they will look back on with fondness, and they will see how much they've grown and changed over time.

4. Happiness: When you take family photos, you're capturing pure happiness. The joy that comes from spending time with your loved ones is something that cannot be replicated. During our photo session, I saw firsthand how happy the Bazzard family was. They laughed, played, and just enjoyed each other's company. It was a beautiful reminder that happiness can be found in the smallest moments, and family is what makes life worth living.

5. Love: Finally, family photos capture love. It's a love that is indescribable but can be seen in every photo taken. I saw that love during our photo session with the Bazzard family. They had a love that was so pure and genuine, and it was a beautiful reminder that love is the foundation of family.

Family photos are so important for so many reasons. They capture memories, connection, milestones, happiness, and love. Our photo session at Centennial Beach was a beautiful reminder of that. It was a reminder that no matter how busy life gets, we should always make time for family. We should always cherish and capture those special moments because they will last a lifetime. So, take those family photos, and don't feel guilty for doing so. Because when you look back at them, you'll be reminded of just how lucky you are.

Ladner Family Photos | Kym of The Happy Photos | Community Photography South Delta

I had the most wonderful time with Kym and her family at their annual family photo session last year! On a sunny day in Ladner, we visited an apple orchard to capture some pretty incredible family moments.

The photos were taken at golden hour, when the light is soft and the colors are all glowy. We captured a range of emotion and energy as the kids played in the orchard. It was clear that Kym and her family have a total bond and just love spending time together. Each snap of the camera caught something special between them.

This sweet family has been having photos taken by me, Paige Fraser of Community Photography, for years now. I have had the privilege of watching Kym's family grow and capturing these special memories for her. Kym always does an amazing job at choosing wardrobe and scouting locations for her family photos in Ladner and Tsawwassen.

Kym, I hope you cherished for many years to come! What a beautiful family! Thank you, Kym and your lovely family, for allowing me to document these precious moments in time.

A Golden Hour Family Photo Session with the Findlay Family & Grandparents

As a photographer, one of my favorite moments of the day is Golden Hour, that magical time of day when the sun is beginning to set and the light is soft, warm, and beautiful. And that is exactly the time when I had the pleasure of taking photos of the Findlay family and their grandparents. I have worked with this family before, and it was an absolute joy to see them again and capture their love and connection at a little forest nook in Tsawwassen.

The day of the photo session was beautiful, and sunny but super cold for early spring (you’d never be able to tell from the photos though!). I arrived at the location a bit earlier to scout the area, find the best spots to take the photos.

When the Findlays arrived, I greeted them with a warm hug and introduced them to the location. We talked about their outfits, the poses and what to expect from the session. They were SO relaxed and excited, and that made my job so much easier. We started with some photos of the kids and grandparents, and then we moved on to the family portraits.

One of the things I love about family sessions is that each family has its unique dynamics, and it's my job to capture them on camera. With the Findlays, I could see the love and affection that they have for each other, and that made my job so much easier.

As the sun started to set, the light turned into a golden and warm hue, and that created a magical atmosphere in the photos. We moved around the location, trying different poses and spots, and the family was always game for it.

After about 45 hours of shooting, the kids were getting cold so the grandparents took them back to the car to warm up. This gave me the perfect opportunity to focus on the parents photos. And oh my goodness, so much love between these two!!

At the end of the session, I knew that I had captured some gorgeous and meaningful photos that they will cherish for years to come.

A family photo session during Golden Hour at a beautiful location is a magical and meaningful experience for the whole family. As a photographer, my job is to capture the love and connection that your family has and freeze it in time. If you are thinking about booking a family photo session, I would suggest finding a location that has meaning to you, wearing outfits that make you feel comfortable and confident, and bringing some props or accessories that represent your family's personality. But ultimately, my biggest advice is to relax, have fun, and let me capture the beauty and magic of your family.

I felt incredibly honored to be a part of capturing the memories of this wonderful family and I am so happy to have been a part of their special day.

It's always an honor for me to be invited into the lives of my clients, especially when I'm able to document so much joy and love throughout my time with them. The Manning family showed me that photography is not only about capturing beautiful images, but also about the relationships and emotions that are shared during these special moments.
