FANTASTIC FAMILIES
Pre-Booking Form
Family life is always exciting and evolving. Personalities, interests, relationships are ever changing. Capture what you want to remember about your family now. Mahlon specialises in portraits that tell your family story and will bring a smile to your face and a flood of memories for years to come. A sensitive imaginative portrait does much more than show the faces of the subjects - it captures their essence for all time. Here are a few suggestions that will help Mahlon create priceless pictures of your small or large family.
Mahlon values meeting your family, including your furry friends in advance of the portrait session, for about half an hour at your family home at no charge to you. This gives him an opportunity to get a feeling for your unique family dynamic, your passions, your children’s special places and what they treasure! When your children especially have had a chance to get to know Mahlon, this results in a relaxed fun interchange on the day of the shoot, that is enjoyed by all! This photography design meeting is often the start of a friendship with Mahlon that will last for years or even decades to come! This brainstorming session is always exciting, where we come too often obvious, but not pre thought meaningful, locations, reasons for and ideas for images that will often result in priceless iconic pictures!
Mahlon’s goal is to portray your family authentically, playful and fluid. There is no set formula. Each portrait is individually created based on your personal preferences and Mahlon’s artistic suggestions. The end product we seek for you are pictures that once displayed, would be interesting and engaging to a viewer who does not know your family, as well as friends who adore your family! It’s often helpful to look at a variety of examples in Mahlon’s books. During your Design Session, we will brainstorm dozens of possibilities! Mahlon is open to any relevant creative idea.
Your request for information and considering arranging a pre-portrait brainstorming session in no way obligates you to work with Mahlon.
