What is a Lifestyle Photography Shoot

“I don’t want my photos to look posed,” is a phrase I hear all the time. Enter lifestyle photography.

A lifestyle photography session documents real life milestones, moments and events and gives you images that are a taken in the moment. There will be a few posed shots, but these will be anything but stiff and formal!

Lifestyle photography photos tell your story, just as it is at that precise moment and are perfect for any genre of photography. Action driven details bring your images to life over and over again. So what are some of the situations where lifestyle photography can be used?

Engagement Shoot - Jillian & Stephen

We first met Emma at wedding fair and we warmed to her straight away. Her friendly and professional nature made her very approachable and someone we knew we could work with. Most important to us was hiring someone who would work well with our young daughter and would see her as an asset to a shoot rather than a hindrance.

We were lucky enough to win a free engagement shoot with Emma which gave us the opportunity to really assess if we she was the photographer for us and we certainly weren’t disappointed. Emma listened to what we wanted and made our daughter a central part of the shots. She worked well with all of us and the final results of our shoot were amazing.

We would highly recommend Emma to anyone.

Family Lifestyle Portrait Shoot - Lorraine & Craig

We discussed having a family portrait photo shoot with Emma as she took our amazing wedding photographs and we really loved having her as a part of our wedding day. She suggested some venues and we decided to go to Birnie loch, Fife.

The weather wasn’t fantastic but we got Eilidh in her wellies and her raincoat regardless. Emma brightened the day with her enthusiasm and we all had lots of fun exploring Birnie Loch. Emma made sure we were all relaxed and she was very patient with Eilidh. It was a difficult decision choosing our prints as they were all of very high quality and looked fantastic.

I would highly recommend Emma as she is patient with children (and grown ups!), relaxed, approachable, extremly talented and very enthusiastic in her work.

Lifestyle Family Portrait Testimonial - Bonita & Gary

Emma came to our house to do a photoshoot of us as a family. Our son was really young and we were nervous about getting this done in case he needed feeding or got grizzly or sleepy. Emma put us at ease right away, taking time to chat with us whilst setting up. Emma asked what we were after from our shoot and we were unsure apart from being able to say, just nice pictures of us as a family please. Emma covered every angle from posed shots to taking snaps as we just relaxed.

At one point Ted did get grizzly, Emma made me feel so at ease whilst settling Ted. I didn't feel rushed or hassled at all, in fact as Ted had settled Emma took my favourite picture from the shoot!

If you are after a professional service from someone that makes you feel relaxed and gives great suggestions on how to get the most from your photo shoot, look no further. I can't recommend Emma enough. The end result was beyond our dreams and has given us and the family photos to cherish forever.

Thank you so much Emma, amazing service from such a lovely lady.
