Why Invest In A Family Photographer

Mar 21

We all have smartphones now, and can ask the next passerby to snap a quick photo of the family at the park. So it’s only natural to ask - why invest in a professional family photographer?

Here’s my take…

First let me say there’s nothing wrong with capturing those sweet moments on your phone to keep and share with loved ones. I’m a professional photographer with an iPhone full of photos.

However, there’s one crucial piece missing with that approach, and that is - the STORY!

Let me explain. The true value behind a photograph is the warmth of the memory it preserves. That feeling you had at the park when a wave of joy crashed over you as you watched your children laugh and play. That warmth of love that filled your chest when you caught that glimmer of pride in your spouse’s eyes. That sense of peace that your loved ones are near and healthy. That’s the real magic behind a photograph, and the real difference between a iPhone photo and an expertly crafted professional portrait.

It’s our promise here at Light Garden Photography to help you create warm, heartfelt visual narratives of your most precious moments as a family in a way that tells your story. We aspire to reflect the natural synergy of your family’s personality, and to help you hold tight to these fleeting moments before their gone.

So is it worth it to invest in a professional photographer in the age of smartphones?

Well, that’s up to you. ;)
