FAMILY PORTRAITS | The Foster's

This family has been my biggest repeat "clients." Well, to be completely honest, this is my brother's family, and they really didn't have much of a choice. I practiced my photography skills on this family since 2007. I started doing their family portraits the Christmas after their youngest son was born. They have helped me to grow, to learn, and to shape my technique over the years. Their youngest son is now 10 years old. My sister-in-law often jokes that I am the only one who can get their boys to smile and catch it. They are getting close to that age now, though, where they suffer #photographersfamilysyndrome.

Tips for Selecting Your Wardrobe

A lot of people ask what they should wear to their photo session? After all, these photographs will become a staple in your family frames and albums for years to come. Choosing timeless, yet appropriate attire will lend to the positive outcome of your photo shoot. If it’s an indoor session, choosing soft, warm colors can be very pleasing to the lens. Outdoors, you can opt for bolder colors, earth tones or contrasting, such as big stripes paired with a solid color. Pinstripes or small dots generally do not photography well. Wearing accessories can add a nice touch, but try to avoid accessories that are too big as they may overshadow your face.
