Whether you’re sending postcards out on the holidays or hanging the kids’ pictures around the house,

a family session is necessary.

Here’s everything you need to know about planning a photoshoot with the family:

Color Coordination

Regardless of each family member’s style, it is important that everyone color coordinates with each other for a nice, cohesive look.

Act Natural

Family sessions are all about capturing the essence of your family. Love on them and play around as freely as you please because that’s when the best photos are taken.

Timing

For outdoor settings, the best time to shoot is around sunset, so don’t be late! Make sure everyone is dressed and ready well before the session (I suggest at least an hour) to allow time for travel, mishaps, etc.

have fun!

The most memorable and beloved images are the ones that are created when the camera isn’t the main focus. Take this time to let your personalities and love for each other shine through!
