3 Tips When Getting Infront of the Camera
One of the hands down, most fun families to shoot right here!!! There was nothing but HUGE smiles & laughs all throughout their entire session! SO, HOW DO YOU GET GREAT PHOTOS LIKE THIS?
Sometimes families feel like they have to be very “posey” or things have to be JUST right & they can’t move after posing to get the best family photos. Surprisingly it’s completely the opposite! The off guard, in-between, REAL RAW moments are always THE BEST!
With that, keep these 3 things in mind the next time you find yourself infront of the camera:
-Go to have FUN.. don’t look at it as a photoshoot, look at it as a time for you to hang out & you just have someone there capturing it!
-MOVE AROUND.. it’s our job as photographers to capture the moments, so move around.. make those moments actually happen! (You won’t regret it later & how fun is it to actually relive the fun moments when you get your photos back) * also let the little kiddos run & move around too! We’ll follow them (;
-BE YOURSELF.. Don’t hold back from doing things you’d do if a camera WASN'T there! You’re investing your time & money into these photos, let’s capture the real you! If we prompt you to lean in for a kiss & then you notice how amazing your significant other looks & you want to really kiss, GO FOR IT!
Just be YOURSELF & do whatever it is you’d do.
Try these & let me know how much you love your gallery when you get it back!
