Is Family Portrait Wall Art Really Worth It?
With heirloom quality wall art, you will enjoy portraits of family and loved ones you cherish every day. When you are at home looking at the portraits of the ones you love, laughing, cuddling, and enjoying the closeness you share you’ll reflect, “What a treasure, this is what is truly important!”
You will see these images, pass by them every day, even after your children are grown, leave for college, and start families of their own. These portraits are legacy pieces, the kind that, in a disaster, you would grab these portraits along with your kids and the dog because they mean the world to you.
We value memories, quality time, and family, and when it comes to documenting these memories, family portraits do it best. Here are the reasons why:
Family portraits capture a moment in time that can not be replaced.
I am sure you have heard stories of families who look through the photos they do have and wish they had more memories captured to reflect upon and share. I know this feeling first hand. I have very few pictures with my dad. When you realize that photos are all you have left of a person or time-period, the value of family portraits becomes apparent. Your children will only be small for a short time. Your parents will not be here forever. Life is short. Capture the memories now.
Family portraits boost your children’s self-esteem!
It has been proven by psychologists that it is extremely important for your children to physically see your family as a unit, to see themselves as a valued member of that unit. With family portraits hanging on your walls at home, your children will grow up knowing that they belong and that they are loved. Psychologists who conducted this study state that the sensory act of touching and seeing a portrait on the wall makes it a habitual sight, reinforcing these esteem-boosting ideas.
Family portraits are fun!
During photo sessions, families will experience extra bonding time. When a photographer asks you to hug or snuggle your child, or to smile at your spouse and laugh, you will feel that connection and be reminded of the love for your family. We don’t always make enough time for fun family experiences a family portrait session can be one and it will be documented to help remind you of the current season in you or your child's life.
Heirloom quality images on your walls make your house a home.
Mass-marketed art pieces from Michael’s or Pottery Barn have their place in home decor, but there are no better subjects for over your fireplace in your family than your family. Imagine the feeling of hanging up a beautiful picture of the people you love and value most in this world.
Family portraits become family heirlooms.
When choosing a photographer who values creating legacy artwork, the products they print for you will last for generations. These become pieces that parents pass down to their children, and so on. We create beautiful, heirloom-quality artwork that you will have the joy of giving to your children one day.
My goal as a family portrait photographer is to create beautiful portraits of your family, something worthy of being displayed on your walls, that will decorate your home with the ones you love. I wish to create heirloom pieces that you can pass down to the generations after you, to your children, and your children’s children.
We know that life gets busy, and we know it can be hard to get the whole family together sometimes, but family pictures are truly an irreplaceable event. If you are considering family portraits contact us to plan your session.
