The Importance of Family Portraits | Houston Family Photographer

Tara Flannery is a Certified Professional Photographer (CPP) based in The Woodlands and Conroe, TX.  Tara Flannery Photography knows the importance of family portraits.  See more family photos in the gallery.  Contact me to book your family portrait today!

The Importance of Family Portraits

At the holidays, we are more aware than ever that our families are crazy!  And sometimes they drive us crazy.  But in that chaos and craziness is love.  It is love that binds us together in the good times and the bad.  We stick together and support each other because we are family.  When we create family portraits, we are honoring that love for our family.  The family portrait that hangs on the walls in your home is a daily reminder of the love that you share.  It binds and molds us.  It holds us close.  We remember the love.  And that will see us through.

Annual Family Photographs

Some people call it luck and some a blessing or fortune.  Whatever your name for it, I am there among those few who truly love what I do.  Family photography was my first love and I still love every session!  I get to watch the connections and interactions of family.  Mom and Dad, sister and brother.  The first portrait below is a family with twin boys.  Every day is crazy for them.  But they show up every year for their family portrait.  Mom puts the photos in the house and the kids know how cherished and loved they are.  The next family has a new addition and they are so in love with him.  New parents are the best at showing total and complete unconditional love.  It is a beautiful thing!  I have photographed the third family for many many years.  They always make me laugh and I love to photograph them!  The last family has five children.  They are the most mature, well-behaved children that I have ever met.  Their family is calm and peaceful and beautiful in so many ways.  I’m grateful to have the opportunity to keep doing what I love and to create family portraits.

Adding a new team member? Your group photo doesn’t have to look outdated. 📸

With group composites, it’s easy to keep your team image polished and cohesive:

✨ I photograph the new hire individually — headshot + full body

🏢 We can shoot in my studio or at your location

👔 Keeping everyone in coordinated colors creates a clean, unified look

No need to retake the entire team photo every time someone joins — your group portrait always looks seamless and up-to-date.

📩 DM me to learn how I make updating team photos simple and stress-free.

Let’s break it down together ⬇️

📸 Headshots → Simple, polished, and focused on your face. Perfect for LinkedIn, company directories, or anywhere you need a clean professional image.

✨ Branding Sessions → A more in-depth experience that tells your story. Think full-body shots, action photos, and behind-the-scenes moments — even showcasing what it looks like to work with you.

Because here’s the thing: people do business with people. The more you can show your personality and process, the more connection and trust you build.

Still not sure which session fits your goals? Schedule a consultation and we’ll figure it out together.

Coordinating team photos shouldn’t feel like scheduling a board meeting. 😅

That’s why I love using group composites. Instead of trying to get everyone in the same room at the same time (nearly impossible for busy teams, especially doctors!), here’s how it works:

📸 Each person comes in individually

⏱️ We capture their headshot + full-body shot

✅ They’re done in minutes and back to work

🖼️ Later, I combine everyone into one seamless, polished group photo

No stress. No waiting around. And everyone looks their absolute best.

Ready to upgrade your team photos — without the scheduling headache?

Here are my top tips for creating photos you’ll love for years to come 👇🏻

🎨 Choose a soft, coordinating color palette — think blues, burgundy, and warm earth tones that look gorgeous in outdoor settings.

👕 Stick to classic, solid pieces without big logos or bold patterns for a timeless look.

😊 And most importantly — keep everyone comfortable (especially the kids!) so we can have fun and capture genuine smiles.

Fall sessions fill up fast — let’s plan your perfect family session now so you can relax and enjoy it when the leaves start to turn. 🍁

📸 Shoot me a DM to schedule your Family Portraits this fall!
