3 Ideas for Epic Multigenerational Family Photos | San Diego, CA

Extended Family Photo Session Ideas for the family on Vacation in Southern California.

It's not just about the kids.

A family portrait should celebrate all generations. The special bond between grandparents and their grandchildren is worth capturing with a multigenerational family portrait. These images will celebrate the full family story can become an invaluable part of YOUR family history, and will also look great on the walls.

I will always encourage adding a generational component to anyone’s yearly family session. Weather it be family jewelry or a framed portrait of great grandma that’s recently passed away - It may not be something you have even thought of, but you are sure to love the images captured. Capturing a few extra frames with the children and grandparents doesn’t add too much time to your session and often having another set of hands-on set to assist with the kids can be extra helpful, especially when your children are small.

Here are 3 ideas to incorporate multiple generations in your next family portraits.

San Diego Maternity | Stanley Family | Windansea Beach La Jolla, CA

Just to be safe, we ended the session and momma got the medical attention she needed! YOU and your babies health come before photos <3
