I’m so excited to share this family session at Memory Grove Park with you today! When the Becknell Family responded to my model, I just couldn’t wait to work with them! They’re my cousin-in-laws and have some of the most adorable kids! Jordan loved Memory Grove Park due to all of the greenery and amazing mature trees throughout the park, and I couldn’t agree more! I offered a similar location closer to them in Utah County, but she was drawn to Memory Grove so off the Memory Grove we went!
Becknell Family Session at Memory Grove Park
Jordan’s main goal for our session was to capture this point in their lives, it’s insane how quickly kids grow up! We started off with the traditional “grandparent pose” as I like to call it before moving on to some of the more fun pictures! To end the “grandparent pose” I had them have a tickle fight which always gets the best laughs from both the parents and the kids!
For most couples, the last time they had any professional photos taken of them (if at all) was their wedding. Because of this, I always make it a point to grab a photo of just the parents during all of my family sessions. So often the focus is on the kids, I want to make sure the parents get at least a couple of minutes for themselves and can remember how they were at this point in their life.
My favorite way to end a family session is with a game! Usually, the kids are plenty warmed up to me and my camera at this point, however, they’re usually pretty restless and ready to be done at this point as well. This is a great way to help end the session on a high note with both the kids and parents! The parents get a bit of a break where the focus is mainly on the kids, and the kids are able to get their energy out before the car ride home! Lately, I’ve been giving the option of Simon Says, Ring Around the Rosie, and Red Light Green Light; Red Light Green Light has been the crowd favorite so far and it creates the most adorable, candid photos!
To the Becknell Family, thank you so much for allowing me to capture these precious memories for you! Your family is so sweet, it was a pleasure being able to take your family photos finally! I’ve loved watching your kids grow over the years and cannot believe how big they’ve gotten!
Enjoy this little peek into this sweet family session!
