Family photos are about more than just pictures—they’re about capturing the love and connection unique to your family. Here are five tips to make your session stress-free and fun.
1. Choose the Right Time
Natural light makes all the difference, and happy kids make happy photos!
Example:
“I recommend scheduling your session during golden hour for that magical soft glow, or mid-morning when your little ones are full of energy.”
2. Coordinate Outfits
Choosing outfits can be daunting, but keeping it simple works wonders.
Example:
“In a recent family shoot, the family wore coordinating pastel tones that perfectly complemented the park setting.”
3. Keep It Natural
The best photos happen when families interact naturally.
Example:
“One of my favorite shots is a dad lifting his child into the air while the mom laughs—it’s pure joy.”
4. Bring Essentials
Having snacks and toys can keep kids engaged and happy.
Example:
“For a toddler shoot in Bristol, we used a bubble wand to create spontaneous, playful moments.”
5. Relax and Have Fun
Stress shows on camera, so let go and enjoy the process!
Example:
“I always take time to chat and joke with families before starting, so everyone feels comfortable.”
