That's the goal!
Family photos aren't always the sexiest thing to photograph, so its hard to find the motivation to pick up the camera sometimes....especially since there isn't much going on during covid.
Realistically though, this is the most important thing I'll ever photograph. Just need to keep reminding myself that.
A realistic snapshot of your messy life is what you'll cherrish most one day, over a well planned snappy portrait. At least that's how I feel. The messier the better, it's real photojournalism of your family and life, flaws and all. That's what you lived. That's what they lived.
I enjoy the RAW photos some people share here. The really well composed ones with fantastic photo elements like composition with the environment make it a really great photograph, sometimes this is super hard to pull off in your home, but still, this is one of my favorite threads for this reason. It forces you to really pay attention to everything.
Very best,
