Generational Family Portraits

Sometimes, we have a rare opportunity in life to celebrate several generations within one family.  Great grandparents, grandparents, children, and grandchildren.  What a treasure to hold this beautiful moment in infinity.  The ones who have come before us and provide is with that rich history of where we came from.  The parents who still remember some of that history and have carried it forward to today.  And then the new ones who will embrace the history and add their own memories that move the family into the future.  What a gift to be surrounded by so much love!

The Hedderman Family

I had the wonderful opportunity of photographing the Hedderman family at their home.  It was certainly a generational family portrait and the scenery was beautiful.  We had four generations from great grandparents to the newest member who had just turned one.  Wow, we got some fantastic shots including the entire family, couple photos, individual families, grandparents with grandchildren, great-grandparents with great-grandchildren, the kids by themselves.  We even had the chance to photograph the little one with her adorable birthday outfit!

Let’s talk about AI headshots. 🤖 ⬇️

Here’s the thing: while AI can mimic your likeness, it can’t replace the real you. People who know you can still tell the difference between an authentic photograph and a computer-generated image stitched together from selfies.

When it comes to building trust with your clients, patients, or audience, authenticity matters. Real portraits create real connection.

That said, I do love using AI-powered tools — not to fake who you are, but to enhance your photos. Tools that smooth, sharpen, and polish while keeping your portraits truthful, authentic, and you.

Because your clients deserve to meet the real person behind the brand.

When you show up like a pro, doors start opening.

We wrapped this session with a simple truth: “Kyle’s going to go off and do great things.”

And he will—because he’s putting his best foot forward, starting with how he presents himself. A high-quality headshot might seem like a small thing, but it can make a powerful first impression that opens doors to new jobs, clients, or collaborations.

When you look the part, you feel the part—and the world responds accordingly.

Ever wondered why your headshots look flat instead of flattering? 👀

It all comes down to lighting. In the studio, I use one main light source and strategically placed reflectors to bounce light and fill in shadows. This creates that soft, even glow that makes you look approachable and polished—while still keeping a touch of shadow to add shape and dimension to your face.

Flat lighting can make your features disappear. The right lighting makes you stand out. ✨

Here’s why 👇🏻

Most people wait for the “perfect” moment—when they’ve lost a few pounds, changed their hair, or finally feel more confident. But here’s the truth: there will always be something you’re waiting on.

Your headshot isn’t about some future version of you—it’s about showing up confidently in the season you’re in today. Because this version of you? The one leading your team, meeting clients, building your business—that’s the version people want to connect with.

When your photo feels authentic and current, it builds instant trust. Outdated or staged images can actually do the opposite, making it harder for people to recognize the real you.

So don’t wait for “someday.” The right time to show up as your best self is always now.

🚫 Let’s talk wardrobe no-nos for headshots.

I want you to look polished, confident, and distraction-free in your photos—and sometimes that means skipping certain outfit choices.

For men:

❌ No undershirts peeking through

❌ If you’re wearing a tie, make sure your shirt buttons all the way up

❌ If it doesn’t, we’re ditching the tie

For women:

❌ Skip the sleeveless tops—your arms will compete with your face for attention

✅ A sleeve (even short) helps keep the focus where it belongs—on YOU

The goal? A clean, intentional look that draws people in and keeps their attention right where it should be—your face.

📸 Save this before your session so you can show up ready and confident.
