Family Photography |Seven Mile Beach

I loved this location session, and it is an especially special one to me as I photographed this little girl as a newborn baby. That newborn session just happens to have been one of my very first sessions when I first started working here at Picture This Studios.

So what an honor it is to be capturing such precious moments such as these of them together as a family even now, a year later! It’s true when they say time flies when your having fun, not just for me and my passion for photography, but for them too, as a family. To watch their beautiful daughter grow; the first year of your babies life is one the most crucial times. It’s when you really experience so much, and learn so much about this little person that she is growing up to be. You really grow together as a family, and thats the most beautiful thing. Having these moments of your life photographed is one of the best gifts to your families future selves!

Family Reunion | In Cayman Islands

What a beautiful session this turned out to be! Would you believe that just minutes before these gorgeous shot were taken we had rain, and when it rains in Cayman it pores! Im so grateful that some how I was able to make this happen for this beautiful family! As its not every day that the whole family gets to be together in one place at the same time, you learn to cherish these precious moments and take advantage of every minute together, and you do not take this for granted! I know what this photo shoot meant to this wonderful family, and so I’m happy that I was able to adventure them around chasing patches of clear blue skies where ever we found. – Tanya

QUESTIONS FOR THE FAMILY-

Session Location and Why you chose it: We originally chose West Bay dock for the photo shoot. However because of rain Tanya suggested we move the shoot to other locations and it worked out so well. We got some really good photos.
Weather Conditions on day of session: It was raining and then we had some clear skies and lots of sun.
What is your favorite family activity?
Who are the members of your family and tell me a quick fact about each person: Nadine (and husband) – lives in Cayman Wendy (and family)- lives in Zambia Daniel (and family) – lives in Canada Mom – lives in JamaicaThis was a family reunion and the photo shoot meant a lot to us as we do not get to see each other often and also to be together in one location.
Tell me about your favorite part of our session, or why you enjoyed the session I love the fact we were able to go to different locations
Tell me about the outfits you wore to the shoot (where you bought them, why you chose them, etc) I wanted Mom to really stand out so we chose a bright colour for her.
What props did you bring and why? My nephew Rhys did not want to leave his turtle – “Sheldon” so the turtle came along with us in some of the shots
What are some words of wisdom you have for other families preparing for a family session? Have fun! Rhys was not happy at first and he surely made that known as you can see in some of the photos…which I thought was cute and real!
Where you worried about any parts of the session beforehand? If so, what were your worries? We were worried about the rain. This was “take 2” for us because we had to reschedule from the day because of rain …but it really worked out. Thanks Tanya!!!

Life Style Family Photographer | Grand Cayman

We have here a gorgeous family of four, mom, dad, a big brother, and adorable little sister.

It goes without saying that I love my family studio sessions, but I hear from the moms and dad so often that its difficult to keep the little ones attention for so long! Lets face it, we try so hard to get them to sit still and smile for a pretty picture and sometimes they’re just not having it!

Let me tell you why I love photographing my families on location, and how this could work for your little ones!

Children love to play, and they lose interest in one thing so quickly, before you know it they’re on to the next thing. When your children are playing outside with you it’s much easier to coax them into to doing the things that naturally make the perfect photograph! Lifestyle photos look so natural to me and thats what I love about them! This is whats real in the family and when you look at those life style photographs you have a more sentimental feeling about it rather than a forced smile posing for the camera. Not to say that one is better than the other, just that they are different! If the image you have in your mind for your ideal family photographs are fun, playful, full of life and as natural and crazy as you guys are together in your own home, then ask me more about my lifestyle sessions, and let me show you what I can do for you and your family!

Grand Cayman Family Photography | Watts Family

There’s nothing more we love than shooting in gorgeous evening light! Read all about the Watts Family experience with Picture This Studios.

Session Location and Why you chose it: A field in West Bay. We had mentioned that we wanted something with a field and maybe an older house and we were told said she had the perfect spot for us.
Weather Conditions on day of session: The weather was perfect and we had a slight breeze during the shoot.

Who are the members of your family and tell me a quick fact about each person:
Brad – Was a Police Officer in the United States before moving to Cayman and has played a bad guy in two different movies.
Trisha – Is a Speech Language Pathologist and likes to travel
Mackenzie – Loves makeup and fashion – aspires to be a model
Avery – Is a natural comedian and loves listening to country music singer, Luke Bryan, with her Mommy

Tell me about the outfits you wore to the shoot (where you bought them, why you chose them, etc) For family photos, we like to coordinate colours in order to compliment one another. Often times, Trisha will find one shirt or outfit that she really likes and build off of it from there. These specific outfits were purchased in the U.S. during a recent trip.
What props did you bring and why? Scarves, necklaces and hats were used as props to give a different feel in some of the shots. They also highlight and bring out some of the colors of the outfits, our hair and eyes. We really like pictures of our girls in cute hats.

What are some words of wisdom you have for other families preparing for a family session?
Make sure your outfits blend and compliment one another. Clashing outfits really stand out and don’t make for nice photographs. If you have several outfit changes, make sure you book an hour session as opposed to a half hour to cause less stress. If you have children, bring snacks and offer rewards (treats) at the end of the session. Bribery = success. Also, let the kids talk to the photographer about what they want in the way of the photographs.

Where you worried about any parts of the session beforehand? If so, what were your worries?
The weather. Though not easy to predict when you book in advance, it is still always good to have a backup plan.

Grand Cayman Family Photography | Burt Family. August 15th was a beautiful, typical sunny Caribbean day with the lovely, and energetic Burt family. With both parents and their beautiful three children, Kazimir, Bronwen and Blake, there was no difficulty finding these special family moments. Manuela told us that having everyone together was her favourite part of the session as they don’t often have the spare time to capture these moments on camera. The family enjoys their Caribbean lifestyle, boating, swimming and playing board games together. The leather chair they chose to use in their photo shoot was very specific as it has been in the family for years, and all the children have an attachment to it. The only advice the easy going family has to give to other prospective family photo shoots, is to do as they did; smile and have fun!

Gorgeous kids!!Smile and have fun! 🙂Awesome family photo time in the comfort of their own home.
