Generational Portraits

Family Portraiture is something many families put off until ‘one day’, and often that day never comes around. Situated in Maleny, Vivid Photography are looking to encourage more families to have their portrait professionally taken for future posterity.

In the rush of day to day life we may not always stop and take time to value our immediate and extended families. Catherine at Vivid believes a generational family portrait is the perfect opportunity for families that span across generations to get together and celebrate their special connection.

We asked Catherine why Generational Portraits mean so much. “Bringing everyone together is key, from Grandparents to newborns and everyone in between both 2 and 4 legged” says Catherine, “and I try to make the portrait session fun, relaxed, and authentic for everyone”. “I’ve been photographing family portraits full-time for over 30 years” Catherine explains “and a professional portrait is so much more than a selfie or snapshot, and in experienced hands it can also be a feature image to display in the home for many years to come”.

Based right across from Maleny Dairies on 2.5 acres, Vivid Photography operate from a custom built photography studio with views across manicured lawns and lake. This stunning location set’s the scene, offering families a chance to encapsulate their legacy amongst stunning Hinterland scenery. After or before your portrait session Catherine recommends taking the opportunity to enjoy lunch together at one of the many cafe’s or pub in town, and spend quality time with your loved ones.

After your portrait session, all family members are invited to view the images in Vivid Photography’s beautiful studio with hot or cold refreshments, and select images that resonate most with each family for printing and framing. Notably the studio also features a massive LEGO collection known as The Brick Zone, where children and adults alike can view a display of over 1000 LEGO sets, and build their own creations.

Catherine has a message she’d like to share with us. “coming together as an extended family probably rates as our most cherished moments in life for both children and adults as we grow older, but it can be fleeting, so I think it’s important we capture the extended family together and happy in a professional portrait. When generations unite, love shines brighter”.
