Richmond Studio Family Session: The Cooneys

I love watching my wedding couples grow into families! The Cooneys returned for a Richmond studio family session to celebrate their daughter’s first birthday. This stylish crew brought so much joy to the studio!

From Wedding to First Birthday

There’s something special about photographing clients throughout their journey. After capturing the Cooneys’ wedding, this studio session felt like a beautiful continuation of their story.

Their daughter has the most vibrant personality! Additionally, her expressive faces and tongue-out smiles brought so much character to their portraits.

Why Choose a Richmond Studio Family Session?

Studio sessions offer several advantages for families with little ones. The controlled environment means no weather worries, comfortable temperatures, and no distractions for little ones to run toward.

The Cooneys’ session provided a clean, modern backdrop that let their family connection take center stage. Moreover, studio lighting creates consistently beautiful results regardless of time of day.

Celebrating Milestone Moments

First birthdays are such a special milestone! This Richmond studio family session preserved memories of their daughter at this magical age – mobile, expressive, and full of personality.

All in all, I love capturing these significant moments for families. Therefore, I always incorporate a mix of posed portraits and spontaneous interactions that showcase genuine connections.

A Stylish Family Affair – Richmond Studio Family Session

The Cooneys’ outfit coordination was absolutely perfect! Their coordinated (not matching) look created a cohesive gallery while allowing each person’s style to shine through.

I always provide styling guidance before a family session. As a result, families arrive confident in their look, which translates to more relaxed and natural portraits.

Those Hilarious Expressions

Their daughter’s funny faces and tongue-out smiles became the highlight of their session! These authentic moments capture her personality at this stage perfectly.

I encourage parents to embrace their child’s true personality during sessions. Consequently, the Cooneys’ gallery includes both traditional smiling portraits and those hilarious expressions that truly represent their daughter.

Creating a Complete Gallery

Every Richmond studio family session includes a variety of groupings and interactions. We captured family portraits, parent/child combinations, and also individual shots of their daughter.

This comprehensive approach creates a complete story of their family at this stage. Furthermore, it provides variety that works beautifully in wall galleries and albums.
