You trusted them to capture your wedding day – the laughter, the tears, and the tiny moments you didn’t even notice at the time.
So when it comes to photographing life after “I DO” – from newborn snuggles to family adventures – your wedding photographer might just be the perfect person to tell the next chapter of your story.
1. They Already Know You
Familiarity Means Comfort
There’s comfort in working with someone who already knows you. Your wedding photographer has seen your real smiles, your natural interactions, and the way you connect as a couple. That familiarity makes everyone – even little ones – relax more quickly in front of the camera.
No Awkward Getting-to-Know-You-Stage
Because you have already built a relationship, your session can flow naturally without the ice-breaker stage. You can focus on enjoying time together while they capture it.
2. They Understand What Matters to You
Capturing the Little Moments
At your wedding, they caught the unscripted glances, the way you held hands, the tear in your Dad’s eye during the speeches. They know you value connection and emotion, and will bring the same sensitivity to your family portraits.
Storytelling that Feels Natural
Whether it’s a newborn curled in your arms or your children chasing each other through the park, your wedding photographer will instinctively look for the moments that tell your family’s real story.
3. They’ve Walked Life’s Path With You
From Wedding to Parenthood
Many couples return to their wedding photographer when they welcome a baby or want updated family portraits. This creates a continuity in your visual story, as the same creative eye captures every milestone.
The Joy of Annual Family Sessions
Some families book a shoot every year, turning it into a tradition. Over time, you’ll have a beautiful record of your children growing up, documented with the same care as your wedding day.
4. The Style You Fell in Love With Still Applies
From Documentary Wedding Photography to Lifestyle Family Portraits
If you loved your photographer’s natural, documentary approach on your wedding day, you’ll appreciate how it translates to family portraits – relaxed, unposed, and genuine.
Natural Moments Over Posed Shots
Your wedding photographer knows you value authenticity, so there’s no need for still posing or props. Just real, beautiful moments that feel like you.
5. It’s One Less Decision to Make
Life with children is busy. Choosing someone new can be stressful – but reconnecting with your wedding photographer means you already know their work, their personality, and that you can trust them completely.
6. Let’s Continue the Story!
If I had the joy of photographing your wedding day, I’d love nothing more than to capture the next chapter in your family’s journey. Whether it’s a newborn session at my studio, or walk in the park, or a quiet afternoon in your garden, or a simple moment just the two of you – these are the memories worth remembering.

As a Dad of two teenagers myself, I constantly look back at photos – time goes so quickly and these photos become more precious as time goes by!
