What to Expect
A family photoshoot with Devee Photography, your Parksville Family Photographer, feels natural, connected, and playful. Through fun prompts, your session becomes a joyful memory at the park. My goal is to capture images that truly reflect who you are as a family. Each session includes all family groupings—large group shots, immediate family, kids, kids with grandparents, couples, and more. I work with the kids to keep them engaged and provide breaks when needed. Images are minimally edited and delivered in high-resolution JPEGs via email within 3–4 weeks.
Family Photoshoot Settings – Parksville and beyond
Your session with Devee Photography, a dedicated Parksville Family Photographer, can take place in any outdoor setting on Vancouver Island. Based in Parksville, I travel across the Island and Gulf Islands. Most sessions happen at a beach or forest park, but rivers and lakes make beautiful alternatives too! If it’s raining, we either embrace nature or reschedule. I plan around weather, baby nap schedules, and lighting. Evening golden hour is always ideal, but I can optimize any scenario.

How To Prepare For Your Family Photoshoot
Set Your Intentions
Talk to your family about what this session means to you. Ask them what it means to them. Remember this as you head into your shoot and feel that energy entering the session. You are welcome to share your intentions and photo goals with your photographer too!
Be In The Moment
You already look perfect! The camera won’t see stains or dirt on your clothes- if it is noticeable, I can photoshop it out. I give 110% direction with poses, prompts and engagement to get you feeling unselfconscious and ultimately show up in these images as a true representation of your beautiful self.
What To Wear
Dress warm, dress cozy! Patterns, plaid, textured sweaters, jean jackets, scarves, pops of colour, and similar color tones- all look GREAT in camera! Neutral colours are wonderful. Long skirts and dresses catch in the wind magically, and stylish hats look cute. Although I will ask the boys to remove their ball caps during the session so that I can see their eyes clearly, since men tend to have deep-set eyes that create shadows.
