Family Photography Poses and Ideas?
Sp360_205_04

We are a large family, 2 adults and 5 children, and we are taking family photos. We are planning to do take the photos outdoors at a park location. I want to find some creative ideas for taking standard family photos as well as photos for our Holiday Cards.

Where can I look for poses for taking family photos? I would also like to look at some other examples. Thanks!


Think about what describes your family, or your personalities. If you are an athletic family, maybe you want to add some soccer balls or basketballs. If you are a musical family, perhaps bringing some instruments into the photo would be fun? Hamming it up could be fun too, or picking a clothing theme. See if there are any other props you could use. Have fun!

im trying to find a good digital camera for pros photography, not just family pictures?
Sp360_205_02

im trying to find one that has good focus and could take good nightime pictures as well..if you have any ideas of what kind or where i could find one?


at this point, I think an advanced point and shoot camera is the camera for you - preferrable something with larger than average sensor.

The Canon Powershot G9 sounds good for you - it is the best pocket camera currently made by Canon, it takes good pictures and for sure you will not be disappointed with them. Their ability to shoot RAW and a hotshoe to attach an external flash will give you an edge on night shoot compared to regular point and shoot camera.

I wouldn't recommend a DSLR to you until you learn more about photography, or you can enroll into a photography class and get one. In this case, The Canon Digital Rebel XT or the Nikon D40 is a good way to start.

You're going to need to know about photography for a good night shoot however - and a good tripod.

Any suggestions for a name for my photography business? I specialize in children and families.?

I have an Interior design background and also offer architectural photography as well, although my main focus is maternity, newborn, children, and family photography.

    This client came to me with SPECIFIC ideas and images of how she wanted her portraits to look. The day before our session, she called me and walked me through some websites she had noticed with the same style of portraiture that she wanted - which was quite refreshing to have a client know exactly what they want out of their session. She wanted super saturated, bright, fun, funky and URBAN. She had a special request for graffiti if I could find any.
