Family photos are their own kind of thing. Your settings could vary greatly because of the number of people and the distance to your family. And if you have little, you may need to be willing to take several photos because you just can’t predict how the littles will respond to you. I personally like to just take some time and let the littles get associated with me before I even try to take a photo of them. You definitely need to know your gear for these as they can be so unpredictable!
That said, I absolutely love the shots with major attitude or silly faces. Parents may not like it in the moment, but trust that when they look back, they will be transported to moments with their kids that remind them of those strong little personalities!
Feel free to ask me any questions! And if you’re practicing, we can even set up a call or zoom!
