The sun is out and shining bright. The sky is blue and the grass is green. Summers here and it seems everyone is wanting a new family portrait on the beach, at the park, or in downtown.
Here are some things to keep in mind when creating family portraits:
Use groups of two’s and three’s to compose your family shot.
vary the levels of your subjects
Watching even lighting, but don’t stress about it.
find awnings, the shaded back side of buildings, or tree cover to diffuse the harsh sunlight
The more people you have in a shot, the less time you have to create it
Most of all, spend some time asking questions of what the family wants.
