Creating Memories

As we said above, it often takes a lot (such as a wedding) to get family to come together, and it really is a shame.  Life is to be lived, shared, and enjoyed together, so your family photo shoot will be the excuse needed to come together and not only document and share those milestones from the year and from life – but also the opportunity to make some unique lasting memories in the process.

As anybody who has worked with Mykey before knows, Mykey Day Photography photo shoots are not boring affairs – they are super fun, dynamic, and enjoyable in and of themselves. After all, anyone can make iphone selfies and camera on tripod timer pictures – but these pictures never win awards or get featured on Pinterest.  Only an artist can ‘make’ those moments happen for you…

Selfies Suck

There. We said it.  These days we get a lot of people saying “why do we need a good/professional/any photographer when camera phones are so good?!” and that’s fine, people are entitled to their opinion – even when it’s sooooo wrong.  There’s a reason why despite the economy still tanking, and the wedding industry is in recession, that Mykey Day Photography’s bookings are higher than ever… And that’s because our clients ‘get it’.

What do they ‘get’? They ‘get it’ that anybody in the world can ‘take’ a picture.  And thanks to dumb luck, they’ll even take some amazing pictures.  But only a professional artist can ‘make’ a great picture. Consistently delivering stunning images that are not only aesthetically good, but that also bring out the personalities of the people and the moment in them – that’s an art, and that’s why you pay an artist, instead of relying on dumb luck…

Documenting Your Family Story

Having a family photo shoot each year is the only way to truly document that most epic of stories – the story of your lives! it’s not just a fun way to see how everyone is growing and changing over the year, it’s an incredible story that you will want to remember every moment of… Whether it’s the new additions and new looks of the family members, or the hobbies, passions, and personalities that those family members possess – it’s important to tell the story of your lives, not just snap what everyone looks like.

What does this involve? Whether it’s the son and his amazing new talent at guitar, or the daughter and her gymnastics medals, it could be the mum’s new small business making cakes or ebay sales, or dad’s newest hobby of fishing, golf, or motor sports… These are all parts of your lives that define you, and you should think about remembering the things that define you – not just the way you looked each year…
