Exploring Our Town

I'm going to be taking some family pictures for our friends in a few days/weeks so I took my little model to find some possible locations.

I may've gotten a bit distracted by the cool scenery. . . .

There's our "new car" upside down.

We finished our little excursion with FREE kids' cones from Arctic Circle! :)

Any tips for group portraits? Most of my pictures are usually only of Ansley and Tyrone.

  1. Don't know what kind of lens you use, but make sure your f stop is pretty low (22 or so) because otherwise you'll have a hard time getting all the people in the shot in focus at the same time. I learned this the hard way. I'd google images of however many people you're photographing to get some ideas of group placements.

    Good luck and I can't wait to see the results!!

  2. Your scenery looks beautiful! We always bring a special treat for the kids (that they don't get to have everyday). It's good bribing material!

    Also, having someone to "help" you. Just having someone standing behind or next to you to "talk" to the group (or jump up and down like a crazy person as needed) always gets more natural faces.

    Good luck! You will do a FABULOUS job!!!!
