Family photoshoots are a fantastic way to create and preserve memories of your loved ones. It is always a great idea to invite grandparents to a family photoshoot session, as they are an integral part of the family, and adding them to the photo shoot can make a significant difference.

Involving grandparents is an excellent opportunity to create memories with all generations and capture moments that will last a lifetime. Your children will cherish these memories in the future while you secure some solid brownie points with your parents or in-laws.

In all seriousness though, extending your family session to grandparents really does ensure you’re documenting the relationships between your children and their grandparents, as well as you and your parents. As a local Canberra family photographer who has done hundreds of family shoots, the ones with grandparents are some of the most special.

Inviting grandparents to a family photoshoot is a significant way to keep generations connected and preserve priceless memories. It is worth taking the time to plan and coordinate a family photo shoot with all involved, as the results are something that can be appreciated and treasured for generations to come.

It’s easy enough to extend your family photo shoot to include grandparents, just be sure to let your photographer know in case it changes the pricing, and provide the details of the number of people and connections/ages.

Other benefits are being able to take those generational images, such as parent, child, and grandchild. It’s also very common that as we become adults we have fewer opportunities to get professional photos with our parents, so the memories can become just as special to us as they are for our children.
