looking at life with the eye of a photographer and the heart of a social worker
Portraits
We photograph babies, kids, pets, brides, grooms, and graduates all the time, but how often do we stop to capture the older adults in our lives? Honor the love, experience, and stories of your favorite older adults with an individual or family portrait session. Capturing milestones and accomplishments is an important part of life and should not stop due to age.
Memorial Home Photography
Maybe you built your house from the ground up, or watched generations of family members come through your front door over the years.
A house that becomes a home holds so many memories, and making a move is never easy. An album can never replace a space we have to leave behind, but having memories to carry with us can help to ease the transition.
Social work skills applied during sessions also help to process change and find pause during a difficult time to appreciate the legacy a special space has created.
Legacy Portraits
What is important to you? Is there something you want to share with future generations? A portrait with a special object can help start a meaningful conversation both during the session and with the people you share it with!
Community Events
Capturing memories during special times is such an important part of life. Inviting Sweet Home Photography to your event can help showcase the spirit of your community, relieve pressure of capturing important moments from family and/or staff, and show the happiness and fun that comes with living in a vibrant community.
Society has a tendency to look at aging through a fearful lens. Documented moments that provide visual proof of the contrary can help to re-frame ageist narratives.
Family Portraits
The most important thing in life is your family. Whether that's the family you're born into, your chosen family, or a mix of both, a portrait session is a great way to honor your bond. And YES, pets are family, too!
Photos to Cope with Loss
When someone we love passes away, we would give anything to have them here with us in the present.
Photographs create a space for this to be possible by honoring relationships and connections.
Social work skills utilized during sessions help participants to process ongoing grief and have a safe space to talk about their loved one.
Branding and Marketing
Whether your work requires a formal head shot or more of a lifestyle branding approach, Sweet Home Photography is here to help--head shot and branding sessions available on location with or without lighting and backdrop setup. Group and individual rates available.
