Why we shouldn't let body image be the reason for not getting photos | Orange NSW Family Photographer
I’ve had a few people say to me lately “I’m going to book in family photos but I want to lose a few kg’s first”, and whilst this is totally fine (hey, don’t we all!), it got me thinking how common this mindset is!My response to these people has been the same -Do you look back at the old photos of you with your family and think “Wow I wish mum had lost those kilos before booking family photos”? No, you don’t. Maybe you think how terrible the outfit choice and 80’s perm were, but you don’t think negative body image thoughts.Don’t be so hard on yourself. Your family will only ever look back on these photos with love, and they will be so grateful for them! We also don’t know how quickly things in our lives can change! I promise you will never regret getting photos with your loved ones.So if you’ve been tossing up whether or not to get family photos, message or call me today to lock in a date!Here’s one of my childhood family photos for a bit of a giggle – oh how far photography has come :-) But it's still one of my fav's; daggy posing and all!
