Documentary Family Vs. Lifestyle Photography

Lifestyle photography and Documentary Family Photography might sound similar, but there are some differences.

Instead of DOCUMENTARY FAMILY sessions where you curate nothing, the lifestyle approach is photographer-guided.

Lifestyle sessions involve preparation beforehand. For example, we can help clients with a what-to-wear guide and suggest suitable locations. Gentle posing direction and working with the best light available takes the place of simply recording an event as it happens. Lifestyle photography is very popular our Tokyo Mini-sessions because it allows us to get some documentary type images with occasional input from the photographer, but still always natural and real.

These sessions still capture everyday life like unposed photography does, but with more forethought given to what the photos should look like.
