If you're interested in commissioning a family portrait, we've gathered a list of questions to ask yourself before hiring a photographer. It will help you narrow your options and find the perfect photographer for your needs.
What style of family portrait do you want?
Do you prefer a traditional posed portrait or a more candid lifestyle approach? Do you want your family photographed in your home or a natural setting? Knowing what portrait style you're looking for will help you find a photographer whose work meets your expectations.
When it comes to family portraits, there are two main styles to choose from: traditional posed portraits and candid lifestyle portraits. Posed portraits are the more formal of the two styles, with subjects typically standing or sitting in a certain way and looking at the camera. On the other hand, Candid lifestyle portraits are less formal and focus on capturing everyday moments. This style is often shot in a person's home or a natural setting, such as a park or beach.
If you're unsure which style you prefer, look at our family portrait portfolio.
How many people will be in the portrait?
Are you looking for a family portrait that includes your immediate family, extended family, or both? Be sure to let the photographer know how many people will be photographed so they can plan accordingly.
What is the occasion for the portrait?
Are you looking for a family portrait to celebrate a special occasion, such as a holiday, engagement, pregnancy, graduation, birth, or birthday? Or are you simply wanting an updated family photo for your home?
If it's a special occasion, they may be able to suggest props or locations that would be appropriate. For example, they might suggest a particular wardrobe if you're looking for a holiday photo. Knowing the purpose of the portrait can help create the perfect image for your family.
What type of setting do you want for the portrait?
Different occasions require different environments. You may want to celebrate a common interest with your family. Are you looking for a traditional studio portrait or something more creative and unique? Do you want the photo to be taken indoors or outdoors? Would you like the photo taken inside your house? Or are you not sure and need help? We'd be happy to help you decide on a location and have many recommendations.
Do you have any specific poses or ideas in mind?
Let the photographer know if you have something specific in mind for the portrait. It will help them create a custom shoot that meets your expectations. At the end of the day, this photo will be in your home. Make sure it's something you'll look at fondly for years to come.
When do you need the portrait?
Be sure to let the photographer know when you need the portrait. It will ensure that they can accommodate your timeline. Photos may take longer to receive than expected. Make sure we know when you need the photo, especially if it's for an engagement announcement or something similar.
If you are unsure when you will need the photo, let the photographer know, and they can help guide you. However, if the timeline is tight, it's best to let them know upfront so they can plan accordingly.
