DAY IN THE LIFE

PHOTO SHOOT

The record of a full day in the life of a family or a couple, where nothing is staged. This is a reportage that allows to eternalize truly genuine memories, portraying the unique dynamics of each family, just as they are, at a certain time in life.

FAQ

WHAT IS DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY

As a documentary photographer, I make a genuine report of what happens. Just that, with nothing being staged.

This results not always in all technically perfect photographs, with ideal light or impeccable framing. But they certainly are unique photos, in which unrepeatable moments are captured. These are undoubtedly records that are the true memories of the family, exactly as the family is, in the moment they are living. That could be the smiles, but also some tantrums, the games, the playing, the daily routines, the clothes you normally wear, and the objects that normally surround you.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE THE MOST IN YOUR WORK AS A DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHER?

I really like the fact that every couple or family is very different from the other and that they all have very unique dynamics. I love that nothing is controlled or embellished, and the chaos that sometimes emerges. I also love the unexpected, for example, when I get surprised, by that small but so tender gesture that appears so naturally in the middle of a normal day.

WHAT IS A “DAY IN THE LIFE” REPORTAGE?

A “Day in The Life” reportage usually begins in the morning, at home, at the time the family normally wakes up. That’s when I start capturing your routines and photographing what you usually do during your day. As an example, it’s a Saturday and normally the family goes for a walk in the morning, and in the afternoon, they stay home playing and watching movies? Or maybe they go to the beach, or the soccer match? Or even the supermarket? It can be anything, as long as it is natural for you. Normally the reportage ends when the little ones go to bed.

WON’T A FULL DAY BE TOO MUCH?

I believe a documentary reportage gains by being longer, for two reasons:

The first one always depends from family to family, of course, but the truth is that it usually takes some time for the family to actually get used to my presence and be able do “forget” that I am there.

On the other hand, there is beauty in so many moments! One day, especially in a family with more than one child, is divided into so many different moments, and so many things happen, that there is always a lot to document!

But if you come to the conclusion that on day is too much, we can always do just one part of the day, as only one morning, or an afternoon.

WHY A “DAY IN THE LIFE” REPORTAGE?

Because every day there are moments, small gestures or details that mark the daily life of a family and that are so full of beauty.

A documentary photo shoot will allow you to have really genuine records of those family moments, that, all together, make up the history and memory of each family.

HOW MANY PHOTOGRAPHS DO WE GET? HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET THEM?

About four weeks after the photo session, and depending on the volume of work I have at the moment, you will have access to an online gallery with about 250 photos, edited by me, one by one. This gallery is ideal if you want to share de photos with friends or family, being totally free to download the images. You will then receive a wooden box with some printed photos and a pen-drive including all the photos in high resolution.

MAY I GIVE A “DAY IN THE LIFE” PHOTO SHOOT AS A PRESENT TO SOMEONE?

Yes, of course. If you think this photo session is the ideal present to someone special, I have vouchers that you can offer.
