Albuquerque Family Photographer

Last December I shot a joyous extended family shoot. Elizabeth called me for an updated family portrait during their visit to New Mexico over the holiday. The entire family would be in town from other states, and she wanted to capture the moment. I chose the Albuquerque Foothills as the location for the shoot, mostly for the beautiful natural light. I photograph in the Foothills November through March, when the Albuquerque Bosque del Apache is wrapped in winter’s slumber. In the warmer months, the Bosque is a picturesque setting for baby, family, senior and maternity shots.

I think its important to have shots where everyone is looking at the camera. It’s a more traditional shot that is timeless. However, I also like the newer style of shooting that is more candid. These shots show off the personality of the family.

Elizabeth’s family had a great time being photographed together. The love that they have for each other is very evident. I had different groupings get together. The parents shot alone, just the siblings, the siblings and their spouses, just the girls and just the boys, and the two grandsons with their parents. They made for some gorgeous family pictures.

The family were total rockstars with their coordinating outfits.They matched different plaids, neutrals, and jeans. It made for such great combinations.

As I was losing the light, and the colors in the sky faded from bright yellows to a bold warm golden orange, the final shots were of the two grandsons. They sat on the ground, and were simply adorable as they smiled for me.
