One of the best parts of being a family photographer in Denver is getting to work with amazing people and share their joy. I had so much fun working with the Miranda family (and their three adorable dogs, of course!). This gorgeous family has so much love for each other, and it shows! Here are a few of my favorite photos from the Miranda family photo shoot with grandparents.

Why Should You Hire a Professional Photographer to Do a Family Photo Shoot with Grandparents?

It has been a tough year for everyone. One silver lining is that we appreciate our loved ones more than ever. What better time to commemorate our family bonds? iPhones take pretty good photos these days, but nothing beats the quality of professional photography. Here are a few reasons to hire a professional for your extended family photos.

Professional photographers are skilled at directing a photoshoot. The key to a great photo is in the details. A professional will make sure everyone is standing where they need to be and smiling at the right time. If you have young children or pets, this is especially important! Additionally, they have a slew of creative ideas for poses, so your photos are anything but boring! 

Including the grandparents creates memories to last. In candid situations, it’s rare to make sure you’re getting photos of every combination of people in your family that you would want for memories for years to come. In many families, the bond with grandparents is a very special one, and certainly worth capturing with professional photos.

Professional equipment makes all the difference. Portrait photography requires a lot of special equipment that an amateur photographer likely doesn’t have access to. You want high-quality photos with a diversity of angles and styles. Perfect lighting doesn’t happen by itself! Furthermore, professionals are skilled at editing your photos to perfection.
