Family photographers are photographers who specialise in family portrait photography. This usually refers to photographing children, with or without parents in the studio or on location. Some family photographers also photograph babies and newborns, which is a niche within family photography.
Some family photographers have their own studio, others work on location and some photographers can come to your home and take photos showing your home or set up a backdrop.
Booking a family photoshoot is a great way to capture your family at this point in time and document your children and yourselves.
There are different ways of pricing family photoshoots.
There are pros and cons for each pricing method, we recommend discussing the session costs and what it includes with your photographer so that you’re on the same page before the shoot.
Related the the question above, some photographers will include the photos in the session price, others will charge extra per photo. This often makes sense as additional photos might require more work.
Family photography sessions can take place in the studio, outdoors or in a familiar location like your home. Depending on the weather and the age of your children there’s advantages to each of the above.
Outdoor shoots can be great for natural looking photos, usually in a park or garden surrounded by grass and trees.
Studio photography for families and babies are good all year round and can keep your little ones warm and clean from mud, giving more control on lighting and conditions. These will usually be shot on a plain colour backdrop.
If your home is spacious enough or you have a nice garden, a family photographer can visit you and photograph your and your children in the familiar environment of your home. This is great to capture who you are and help everyone feel comfortable. Many photographers are happy to travel and you can discuss options with one of our experienced family photographers.
