Candid backyard family portraits – Victoria BC

A brother and sister look out the window of their treehouse in their backyard in Victoria BC

So excited to share this fun photo session we had in this family’s beautiful backyard. My only instruction was to do what you normally do, so they did just that. The kids showed me around their favourite parts of their yard, they played games, hung out in the vegetable garden, climbed trees and jumped on the trampoline while their two sweet dogs ran circles around them. We spent only a few minutes capturing a few Christmas-card worthy photos for the grandparents, but the rest of the time the family was free to be themselves. Wondering about having a lifestyle portrait session like this with your family? Get in touch and I’ll tell you how it all works!
