Lifestyle photography is a kind of photography mainly aims to capture portrait/people in situations, real-life events or milestones in an artistic manner and the art of the everyday. The primary goal is to tell stories about people's lives or to inspire people in different times. Thus, it covers multidisciplinary types of photography together. A lifestyle photographer is not only a portrait or people photographer and loves/enjoys photography as art in everyday life but is believed to be talented in photography that can also do well in other many disciplines of photography at a time such as landscape, street photography, fashion, wedding and even wildlife with one's unique vision to inspire people's life.
As described by one photographer:
"To me, lifestyle photography is photography without all of the stress. It isn't worrying about children sitting still in a small studio. I encourage children to run and play, Daddy's to toss their kids into the air, Mom's to twirl in the sunlight with their daughter's (and sons!). It isn't about crossing your fingers that your children will look at the camera and smile. It is all about enjoying your time together as a family, while I join in on the fun and take photographs along the way. All of the smiles and laughs will happen naturally. I will give gentle guidance if needed if you're feeling nervous in front of the camera. But honestly, just let loose and enjoy your family! Give hugs and kisses, pick wildflowers, splash in the ocean. Life pulls us in so many directions, use this time to slow down and enjoy each other."
