Our Family Portraits | Louisiana Family Photographer

Meet us- The Dexters!

As a family photographer in the Minden Louisiana area, I have learned that it is actaully very easy to be the shoe peddler that has no shoes. Meaning, I take portraits of others but have none of my family. This is NOT what I want to happen. I want to be able to have gorgeous portraits of my family just as much as I want this for my clients.

The past few years I have made sure I get us all dressed up and we go out in our field for OUR family portraits. It’s really a sight to behold, I’m quite sure. I typically have my camera set up on a table or our car. I set it on a timer and then set my family up. I start the timer and RUN into the picture. Sometimes it works, sometimes I get great BTS photos. HAHA!! Usually it works.

This year was, by far, the easiest with my kids. Last year, Emma wouldn’t look at the camera for nothing! Although I do not blame her- there was no one to look at, just a random camera. But this time she did so good!! I was proud!!

I had two sets of outfits picked out but I wasn’t sure which to use. I loved them both. I’m a big believer in coordinating with the decor in your home and usually going more neutral. But there was a blod patterned dress of Elaine’s that I just loved!! Then there were neutrals that I realy loved too.

One Sunday I decided to have us all wear the neutral outfits to church to see how I liked it. I ended up having a really good hari day that day and really liked the outfits on us so we decided to just get our pictures done that day! HA I’m always doing this LAST MINUTE.

We had just enough sunlight to make these images BEAUTIFUL!! And I love them SOOOOO mcuh!! Enjoy!!

Thank you so much for being here!! If you enjoyed this please leave some love!!
