Family Sessions

Preparation for that type of session depends on place, style and concept of the session. One of the essential elements are clothes matching colours and style. The colours that always look good in the pictures are black, beige, ecru, brown, white, grey and pastel. While choosing a T-shirt remember not to wear any with a big logo, neon colours, etc. It is favourable to provide some accessories, such as straw hats to the beach, a picnic basket to the meadow, leather jackets for the photo shoot on motorcycles. Before each session I ask my customers about the concept of the photo shoot and outfits they would like to wear, it makes my work a bit easier and we save a lot of our precious time.

A family photo shoot is a special occasion for memorising those precious moments shared with your loved ones. It’s the time when everyone meets in one place to create a souvenir intended to please your eyes for many years.

Prices of the family photo sessions vary depending on some components, for example a chosen place or package. But it’s worth mentioning that family photos are a longtime investment that brings unforgettable memories.

The duration of the family session is varied due to the number of participants, place, or range of the photos. Usually it takes from 1 up to 3 hours, sometimes can be longer. It depends on the selected package too.

The family photos from the session can be put in a photo album, framed and hanged on the wall or given as a present for your family and friends. It’s also a great material for photo books or calendars that can remind you of the common moments for the all year round.

Children can be really unpredictable that’s why it’s important to have a „B” plan, in case they don’t want to cooperate. It may turn out to be a good idea to take a couple of toys from home, which can help you entertain or calm your little ones. It’s also worth giving them some time for adapting to the new place and situation. Patience and understanding are the key factors here.

By all means! Such a session is even more emotional and a beautiful keepsake will stay with you for a life time, not only in your memory, but also in the pictures. It’s a wonderful opportunity to spend some nice time together.

The most frequent mistakes that happen during the family sessions are awkwardly chosen clothes, lack of preparation or too many props that distract from the main characters of the photos. Eliminating artificial poses and forced smiles, which may make the photos look unnatural, also reduces the number of possible mistakes in this type of photography.

The place for the family photo shoot should be chosen taking into account your preferences and general idea of the pictures. The pictures can take place in the outdoor locations, parks, forests, beaches or indoor, for example at home or in the studio. It’s relevant that the place is safe for everyone, with special regard to children.
