At Home Family Photos With Older Kids | Raleigh Lifestyle Family Photographer

Let me just say it: I love photographing families at home. There’s something extra special about stepping into someone’s real life and getting to capture those everyday, beautiful moments. As a Raleigh lifestyle family photographer, I’ve found that the best sessions don’t come from perfectly curated outfits or dramatic locations. They come from families being themselves, in the spaces they’ve made their own.

This session with the Chadwick family? Pure gold. Cozy vibes, lots of real play time, and that sweet, calm energy that only happens when everyone’s in their element.

Why In-Home Photos Just Hit Different

Here’s the thing: when you’re at home, you’re more relaxed. The kids know their surroundings. You know where the snacks are. You don’t have to worry about the weather or whether your kid will melt down in a crowded park.

And that comfort? It shows in the photos. As your go-to lifestyle family photographer in Raleigh, I want your session to feel like a laid-back Saturday morning. Because those are the photos you’re going to love forever, the ones where your family looks like you, not a Pinterest board.

Real Moments Over Perfect Posing

My style isn’t about getting everyone to sit still and smile at the camera (though if we get that shot, cool). I’m here for the messy hair, the belly laughs, the tickling and snuggles, and that special energy that makes your house feel alive.

With the Chadwick family, we did all of that. We played legos in the living room, curled up on the outdoor couch, rough housed on the deck, and captured the kind of love that makes you stop and think, “Wow, this is our life.” That’s the good stuff that I love to photograph.

Let’s Make Some Magic. No Shoes Required.

If you're thinking about booking a family session but the idea of wrangling everyone into matching clothes and dragging them to a park sounds like a nightmare… good news: you don’t have to.

I’ll come to you. You be you. We’ll hang, laugh, chase the light, and capture what your family really feels like right now. Sound good?

I’m Devin: a Raleigh lifestyle family photographer who loves coffee, colors, and keeping it real. If that sounds like your kind of vibe, let’s make some magic together.
