I LOVE photographing multiple generations in one frame—especially when it’s at a place that is so special and meaningful.

This timeless extended family photography session in Mocksville, NC was held on their own family property, a place where childhood memories, holiday gatherings, and life’s biggest moments have unfolded over the years.


From the moment we started planning, this family knew they wanted something timeless—not just digital files sitting on a hard drive, but printed memories for both their home and office. After guiding them through wardrobe styling that complemented everyone, we intentionally photographed their session by capturing both the posed and candid moments that make family sessions feel real: grandkids giggling with grandparents, "red light, green light races," and ice cream on the porch. Moments like these feel even more meaningful when are remembered in a setting that holds deep personal significance. For the Snider family, that setting wasn’t just their home—it was a reflection of the legacy they’ve built over the years, both personally and professionally.


The Snider family has owned Snider Insurance in the heart of Statesville, NC for over twenty years. As a proud family business, a portrait of the Sniders has always greeted visitors at the entrance of their office. But until now, their most recent photo was taken back when their daughters were still in high school!

For their updated portrait, they chose a large, beautifully matted image of their family—framed in a striking, thick black wood. It now replaces the old photo, standing as a bold and heartfelt reminder of the legacy they’ve built. More than just décor, it’s a conversation starter, a piece of art, and a memory preserved in the most meaningful way.

If you’ve been thinking about gathering your own family for something more intentional, we’d love to help you create something beautiful. Whether it’s your first professional session or a new tradition, we’ll walk with you every step—from outfit planning to custom-framing the artwork that tells your family’s story.
