Family Portrait Photography Geelong

Are you planning a family portrait session? Family photos are a great idea. You can use them to decorate your place or send them out to family and friends. They also serve a great memory. In this article I will tell you X tips that will help you plan and shoot perfect family photographs:

Tip 1: Start by finding a great photographer for your family portraits. Don’t just settle for your uncle who bought a new $5000 camera. Camera’s don’t shoot good photos, photographers do. Start by asking your friends, family, or coworkers if they know any good portrait photographer. There is a good chance they may know someone and this will save you some effort. Else go to Google and type: “family portrait photography Geelong”. You will see a list of photographers. Read their reviews then go to their website and see whose work you like. Reach out to them and hire them for your photoshoot.

Tip 2: The next thing you want to decide is what kind of photos do you want for your session. Do you want it to be a specific theme like Christmas? Or do you want some for your social media or home. This will help you decide if you need some kind of props, wardrobe and the location for your photoshoot.

Tip 3: The next thing you want to figure out is how you want the final photos. You see photography does not cost much but the prints can cost a lot. So if you just want digital prints you are fine. But if you want large prints and multiple of them this can cost a lot more. If large prints are what you want, be sure to discuss the prints in advance. Instead of negotiating on the price of the shoot try to negotiate on the price of the prints. Or negotiate to have them deliver high resolution digital prints. You can then get cheap prints from websites like whitewall.
