How To Plan Your Holiday Family Photo Shoot

Planning your family's holiday photo shoot:

• Find a family photographer- Lucky you, you've found one! Contact us today or use our booking form to schedule your family photo shoot. You can also take a look at our portfolio to see our work. Keep in mind, all of our shoots are tailored to the clients and are meant to be meaningful to them. Your family's shoot will be unique and personal to your family.

• Pick the location- You may have a spot in mind already or you may need help from your photographer. We love helping brainstorm for the location. Our goal is to find the location that will mean the most to you. So go ahead and ask us for options, we're here for it!

• Styling outfits for the shoot- We love thinking in terms of color scheme. This is why we list the location first. The setting of the shoot and the colors in the background should be complimentary with the colors you choose for your family's outfits. However, holiday photo shoots typically end up being red, green, white, or beige outfits. We love a white and beige Christmas shoot with a green background. This is the outfit to plan down to the detail, meaning- bring out those accessories you save for special occasions, because now is the time!
• Props for your family shoot- Not every family photo shoot will have props and not every family photo shoot should. For a holiday photo shoot, props make the photos shine. Whether it is a Christmas tree and gifts below or a gingerbread house for the family to build together, there are endless options for props. We're happy to give you ideas.
