I strive for a balance of three types of photographs in my TIME SAVOURED sessions. During a 90-minute lifestyle family portrait session I look for a combination of group portraits, play time and solo time.
GROUP PORTRAITS: An example of a group portrait could be the whole family gathered at the front door, or in front of the fireplace, or snuggled in together on the couch.
PLAY TIME: One example of playtime would be having a tickle fight on mom and dad's bed. Together with a bit of quiet time, this is often when the best candid portraits are made.
SOLO TIME: Solo time could mean each person in the family having their own portrait taken.
It is a combination of these photographs that makes a session so valuable. And I strive for more than just one great group photograph, looking for both ‘relaxed’ and ‘energetic’ views of your family.
From each session my clients usually order several photographs for their wall, and often the digital files to share with all of their loved ones. They regularly order a coffee table book, or professional album, with a collection of their favorite
photographs from the session. Greeting cards are also a popular product, especially leading up to Christmas.
