Northern Indiana Family Videographer and Photographer
There’s something about the late days of summer—those lazy, hazy evenings reading books on the patio, kids running barefoot all day, and finding comfort in the simple moments. This family’s cozy, backyard retreat perfectly embodied that feeling, and I wanted to capture it in a way that wasn’t just about the outfits or poses—but about the essence of the moment. The family, the love, the comfort, and the togetherness they share in their everyday lives.
The Feeling I’m Chasing
It’s more than just taking a photo. It's about capturing a feeling, one that makes you pause and think: I remember this. From tiny feet resting on dad’s legs after an afternoon of running barefoot to counting fingers and toes while sitting on the porch, it’s those moments that make life special. It's the connection, the laughter, and the peace found in the safety of home. That’s the essence I’m after when I take these photographs and videos—not just capturing how you look, but how you feel in the moment.
Family Videography for Real Life
This family portrait session wasn't just about stills. It also included family videography to capture those precious, fleeting moments that make up everyday life. Mom wanted to hold onto right now—the hectic, the exhausting, and the joyful. Her kids are in that energetic stage of life, bouncing from one activity to another, and videography is the perfect way to catch it all.
Parenting isn’t always glamorous, and there are tough moments, but it’s the sacrifices made in those times that make the journey so meaningful. That’s why I believe a family film can be such a gift. For me, it was during a tough season in my own life, and I found comfort in looking back at a family film. Seeing those little moments, even amidst the challenges, reminded me of the blessings that surround us daily.
Creating a Time Capsule for the Future
This family may be in a tough season, but the memories we captured will be a balm in those moments. I pray these images and videos will bring comfort now and later—when the kids are grown and the chaos of their younger years is a distant memory. Watching them grow up in this film will serve as a time capsule, reminding them of their roots, their family bond, and the love they’ve shared. In the future, they’ll look back and realize how much they miss those carefree days.
Take a moment to watch the film and check out the photos. I’d love to hear which part resonated with you the most. These sessions are not just for today—they’re for preserving memories that’ll be cherished in years to come. Please feel free to share your thoughts; I’m always here to listen.
