--- title: Family Portraits | Fun and Relaxed Photography Experience description: Family photo sessions are a true gift for Mom. After the kids are gone, she rarely gets pictures together. Keep tradition with annual updates as adults. --- [Skip to content](https://maggietakespix.com/family#main-content) [![Maggie Takes Pix](https://maggietakespix.com/hs-fs/hubfs/no%20frame%20logo%20sm.png?width=2000&height=934&name=no%20frame%20logo%20sm.png)](https://maggietakespix.com/home?hsLang=en) - [Services](https://maggietakespix.com/services) - [Experience](https://maggietakespix.com/experience) - [Blog](https://maggietakespix.com/blog) Open main navigation Close main navigation - [Services](https://maggietakespix.com/services) - [Experience](https://maggietakespix.com/experience) - [Blog](https://maggietakespix.com/blog) - [Contact Maggie](https://maggietakespix.com/contact) [Contact Maggie](https://maggietakespix.com/contact?hsLang=en) **portfolio** # Family I like to make Mom the center of attention, but if the only way we can get her in front of the camera is to have the rest of the family with her, I’m in! I’ll do standard formal photographs suitable for framing and sharing, and then I will also ask your family to have some fun! Getting family portraits together shouldn’t be painful, so I will do my best to get you to relax and enjoy the experience. ![Amanda
