  family photo

    Once the wedding plans are completed and you're only days away from the big event, the entire family will begin to gather from near and far to join in the celebration, one of the happiest "must-be-there" occasions experienced by your immediate family.
    As busy as you know you'll be, do set aside one short hour with your family to create a cherished memory: The family portrait you've talked about for years.
    Weddings are one of the few celebrations that gathers families together from all over the country and, in some instances, the world. There won't be an easier or more ideal time to have a professional photograper take your family group portrait.
    Your wedding photographer, in most instances, will be totally occupied with shooting the many aspects of the wedding ceremony and activities. As cherished and beautiful as these photos may be, the formal wedding attire simply dosn't lend itself to the concept of an heirloom family portrait.
    Arrangements can be made with a professional photographer to meet you and your children in a special location, your family home, or his studio. Many photographers offer unique studio settings which lend themselves to either a formal portait, dressed in your Sunday best, or the popular casual group portrait.
    There are special treatments that can be applied to your portrait. One favorite is the beautiful brush stroke finish which creates the look of a fine painting.
    You may not have an opportunity to take this treasured photo again, so plan a special family time, a day or so ahead of the wedding, to create a unique family heirloom portrait.
