Let's go on an Adventure together!
To me a family adventure session is a fun, location focused photo session with a family that aims to capture candid, natural, authentic connections between parents and children. The session can also be created around an activity to create a fun, adventurous feel.
Family adventure sessions have this incredible way of documenting a family's shared experience. Exploring somewhere new or possible familiar together, exploring the great outdoors honestly provides such an amazing setting to capture the story of your family. Plus going on adventure as a family feels like a fun family outing. These sessions are about doing things you love with the people you love and letting me capture it so you have the memory forever!
One of the things I love about these types of sessions is that they don't feel rushed and kids often have alot more fun in these types of sessions providing such lovely natural moments of connection.
I have been so lucky to have had the opportunity to capture a lot of family adventure sessions these past few years in some of the most beautiful places in British Columbia including Bowen Island, Osoyoos, West Vancouver, Lions Bay and in my own backyard of Port Moody. I look forward to capturing more this year in locations such as Gailiano Island, Vancouver Island and possible Cypress.
Some Tips for planning a family adventure session:
- what adventures do you already do as a family that have become apart of your family story - think hiking, skiing, camping, horseback riding - these all make epic family adventure sessions
- remember that adventures can take many forms, and that the goal is to share meaningful experiences together
- the adventure should include activities you love to do as a family
How does a family adventure session work?
- Decide on an adventure your family would want or perhaps one you already have planned- maybe its going on a hike, playing in a creek, going to a fair, skiing or camping. Pick an adventure your family will or genuinely already enjoy together.
