Designing a proper family portrait begins BEFORE the day of the session.
Here is a list of some of the many factors go into planning an effective family portrait session:
- decor – the style of the owner’s location where the final image will be displayed
- size -physical space (overall) of the hanging location
- who – quantity & ages of people to be captured
- location – the destination of the session
- AM/PM – a time of day (key factor for outdoor)
- fashion – clothing coordination is very important for timeless portraits
- emotion – the personal character of the people as a whole
- scale – the size of the people within the image in relation to the surroundings
- image presentation – a proper finish is paramount to making it be the representative family show piece, as intended…
