Are you Ready to Schedule a Documentary Family Photo Session?
FAMILY COMES FIRST - Recently, some of our United States family photojournalists have communicated their readiness to work with families who are able to carry on with their normal life and who want it documented. Family Photojournalist Association professional members offer a distinct and natural style of unobtrusive photography that will capture genuine, candid moments of you, your children, and even extended family enjoying time together...everyone gets in the pictures and you will likely forget the photographer is even there.
The purpose of documentary family photography is to tell a story — your story. You will be able to feel the love that you have for one another in the images. You will see the beauty that results when you are not posed or directed by your photographer to sit in a contrived position and smile on command at the camera. The FPJA has an abundance of top-ranked, Ohio family photographers who are available right now. Find yours today!

I'm tired of fake, counterfeit images of lives on social media. Aren't you? As a photographer, I am drawn to the realness of life in all its raw beauty. My family means everything to me, and I know yours means everything to you too. Still, it's so easy to see the perfectly scripted moments others choose to show us of their lives on the internet and wish our lives were as together as theirs. With my camera, I tell true stories. I seek to highlight the value families have just being themselves in a culture where everyone wants them to be anything but authentic. If all your children ever see on your walls are pictures of them on their best behavior in matchy clothes they would never choose to wear on their own, what message are you sending? Instead, fill your walls with their authentic, raw, unruly, radiant selves and fill their hearts with the bold truth that you love all of them... every moment of every day. My name is Joan Willow and I am a wife, homeschooling parent, photographer, and writer. I am also a full-time biology student! I wear many hats... but my favorite hat is the one I have worn for over 15 years - Mother. I know full well how fleeting childhood is. It has been the bittersweet joy of my life to watch my baby sons grow up into young men before my very heart. With my camera, I am able to freeze time so that I can relive every real moment of it all. I enjoy helping families preserve those everyday moments too. I'd love the opportunity to tell your story through images I know you will cherish for the rest of your life.

Ohio Birth Sessions at Home or Hospital

Whether you plan to give birth at home or at the hospital, you can book a documentary birth session with a professional reportage-style birth photographer.
