Family Photos with Laughter

Did you know that there are actual benefits to laughter? You’ve heard the phrase, “laughter is the best medicine.” Here are some reasons why laughter is good for us:

Laughter spreads: when you smile at someone, they smile back (mostly). Laughter can be the same.
Reduces stress: increased blood flow stimulates the heart and lungs which increases endorphins. You become more relaxed physically and emotionally.
Combats depression: laughter releases hormones and chemicals into our bodies that improve mood.
Increases resiliency: resilience is the ability to see failure as a natural progression to success rather than a negative outcome.

Find your partner for laughter and you’ll both feel better!

The Tills Family

I had a fantastic and fun family session with the Tills. We tried a new location and found some beautiful spots for family portraits which is always fun for me! Familiarity and friendship works in our favor for these family portraits. At one point during the session, we were all making faces and when Dad tried to make the face, he apparently didn’t get it exactly right. The next photo is Taylor’s response…laughter! I absolutely adore this photo of both of them laughing. These are the moments. The split-second, fleeting moments that enrich our lives and our connections with each other. It was just a silly thing, making faces. But it is now a memory for this family of a connection in this time and space.

Let’s talk about a few common mistakes that can totally throw off your branding session 👇🏻

❌ Unplanned Outfit Choices

Random, last-minute outfits = a scattered visual message. Your photos should reflect your brand intentionally — not just what`s clean in the closet.

❌ No Vision or Direction

If you’re unsure how you want to show up online, your photos will reflect that confusion. A clear brand vision makes all the difference.

❌ Rushing or a Stressed Mindset

Showing up frazzled can impact your energy, your expression, and how confident you feel on camera (and it shows!).

✨Here’s the good news - you don’t have to figure this out alone. I guide you through it all with:

✔️ A pre-session consult to plan every detail

✔️ Outfit and location guidance that fits YOUR brand

✔️ Confidence-boosting prep tips

When we plan it together, you show up feeling calm, prepared, and confident — and that’s when the magic happens. 💫
