Introducing: The Family Portraits Photographer Toolkit
For portrait photographers wanting step-by-step instructions to make each of your family sessions flow smoother, while consistently producing sharp naturally posed photos (not those awkward & stiff photos that nobody cares for)...
...so that you'll effortlessly transform your clients to raving fans who continue to book you & recommend you to all of their friends too!
Has This Ever Happened to You?
You arrive to your family portrait session & are met with a stressed out mother, the father who clearly has no desire to be there & their two children running and screaming...
Your heart probably probably skipped a beat but after a quick internal pep-talk you get started.
You're taking photos but you know they just aren't turning out like you hoped on the drive over...
- The poses are stiff & awkward.
- You're trying to talk to them but it's going nowhere & the awkward silence is killing you.
- You can't seem to get a sharp photo of the kids playing around.
...you're left feeling defeated and worked over and can't help but think to yourself:
"Am I even good enough for this?"
"Will I ever get this right?"
And your clients walk away feeling unsatisfied, or at best neutral about the experience, with little motivation to return in the future
What you (and your clients) really wanted were photos like these.
Here’s the thing, it’s not just you. I’ve been there too…
It is exhausting and disheartening to feel like you never know for sure how your sessions will go.
When you can’t place your finger on exactly what is going wrong, you’re left to assume that either:
- You aren’t competent enough, or
- You just need different/better clients to get the results you are after.
As a family photographer, I was tired of shooting in the dark, waiting to see what would work and what didn’t work.
Most photographers spend years of trial and error before finally getting their confidence up and into a regular routine so they can deliver amazing photos and an amazing experience for their photo clients & friends.
We already have the years of experience and discovered what works and what doesn’t – so you don’t have to waste anymore time burning through lackluster family portrait sessions.
As we all know, first impressions are everything!
