“When most people hear the word ‘portrait’ they cringe, thinking about all those stiff family group shots they were forced into, full of fake smiles and formal poses…..After shooting my own family for years I came to see that the most loved photographs, the ones that brought back the most memories & emotions, were never the ones where everyone was looking at the camera, they were the ones that showed us laughing, scowling, and being ourselves. It seems so simple, but it really is magic when you can capture a family being a ‘family’; messy, silly, moody, and above all, connected.” rebecca murphy photography
