EXTENDED FAMILY SESSION

The process of an extended family session is a little different than the typical family portrait session since there are more groupings and arranging everyone requires a bit more time. We start with the large group portrait first since that’s usually the priority. Then we break down into smaller groupings of individual families, grandparents with grandkids, just grandkids, original family, just kids, etc.  These sessions take 1-1:30 hours depending on the size of the group but I work quickly and efficiently and try not take up too much of your time together.
–  Location of your choice within 45km drive of Howick (Additional mileage may be charged after this if you would
like your photoshoot to take place at a location that is further than 45kms away).
–  Details shared of what to expect at your shoot including clothing tips and more.
–  email questionnaire sent to you beforehand so that I can find out more about your family.
–  A 60-90 minute relaxed & fun photoshoot at your home or a location of your choice for up to 4 sets of families.
 – My time spent selecting the best images from your session and digitally perfecting each individual image.  With extended family photos this often includes extensive photoshop work to ensure we don’t have any photos of people blinking in the large group photos.

R3500

You will receive ALL the photographs in High Resolution format, they will be sent to you via a download link so each family can download the photos. (Please note, these are the images that I choose as beautiful photographs, the photos where people are blinking or that are not suitable will
not be added to the folder).
