Slice of Life Sessions | Kitchener Family Portraits

I’d like to announce a new type of portrait session at Capturing the Light Photography:  Slice of Life Sessions.

These will be a great way to document the life of a young family in their home instead of the standard pictures at the park that everyone else has.

The sessions will consist of me spending a couple hours in your home documenting the everyday events in your family.   Everything from play time, nap time, walks, meals…  The sky’s the limit.

The important thing is that the pictures will represent who you guys really are, instead of everyone wearing matching Christmas shirts in front of a white backdrop at WalMart.

Since the approach to these family portrait sessions was a little different, I had to come up with something new to properly showcase the images.

Therefore with each session you will receive a custom fine art coffee table book designed by me to proudly show your pictures to friends & family.

The cost of these sessions is $500.00 (plus tax).

Please contact me at scott@capturingthelight.com if you have any questions or would like to book your family’s Slice of Life portrait session.

Here’s an example of what the session and the book will look like.

Stunned…. 3rd place.

I just got back from an amazing 4 days in Texas.  Why?

It was the Foundation Conference hosted by Huy Nguyen from F8 Studios.

Huy also runs the Foundation Workshop (don’t get confused!) that I attended this year and will be back again for next year.

The Foundation Conference was 3 days of seminars and presentations by some of the top wedding photographers from North America.

Sound like every other convention?

Not even close.

The group of people Huy brought together, both the presenters and attendees, were amazing.  The spirit of sharing and trying to inspire is hard to put into words.  It was one of those things were you learned more over lunch or beers than you did in the formal presentations (which were great too).

Anyways, why am I stunned?

The first night was a photo competition with live judging by a panel of photographers.

I was honored when one of my images was selected as a 3rd place winner in one of 5 categories.

As the judges were discussing my image my heart was literally pounding and my mouth went dry… I’m still in shock.

The other entries were mind-blowingly good and I’m honored to have my work looked at in the same way.

Here’s the picture:
