Choosing the Ideal Location for Your Family Photo Session
Location ideas for your next family photo shoot.
Family photos are timeless and if you are looking to update your family portraits or take some for the first time, you might be wondering about what location to use for them.
Here are some things to consider before choosing a location for your family photo session:
- Comfort. A family photo shoot is where you get to smile, laugh and be yourselves. If some of your family members are shy then you might not want to choose a very public spot.
- Personalities. What makes your family unique? Choose a location that fits in with who you are as a family. Do you enjoy spending time in your garden or on a couch reading books? Perhaps you spend lots of time outdoors and on camping trips? Your location should speak to your personalities.
- Convenience. Take each member of your family into consideration. What are their ages and needs? If you have two toddlers that might need to use a bathroom at any time, then a remote spot is probably not the best idea.
Below are some ideas of where you could arrange your family photo session.
- At Home. Sometimes the best shots can be taken right at home. Get your family outside in the garden or setup your living room for a classic look and feel.
- In Nature. If you’re looking for a calm, natural setting then choose an outdoor location. Parks and forests make for beautiful backdrops.
- In Studio. If you’re looking for a more private setting where you can use props and backdrops, then a studio setting might be more for you. Studio photos will also give you the option to take more posed, structured photos.
When you decide to pay for a professional family photo session, know that you are hiring an individual who is passionate about what they do and is willing to go the extra mile to help you create beautiful family photos that you can treasure forever. I love what I do and do what I love!
