The kids had great fun during the photoshoot and they knew what to expect, as we previously had the
pleasure of photographing them for one of our festive Christmas shoots. We also remembered the
merits of a little bribery with a few well placed sweets which greatly enhanced the posing process!
The girls looked stunning on the day in their beautiful pastel dresses, perfectly complimented by the
casual jeans and tops worn by the boys. Mum and Dad also stayed neutral with white tops and blue
jeans, an ideal combination for a family shoot. With years of experience photographing families we
always feel neutral is best when it comes to dressing for a family photoshoot. We usually
recommend keeping colour to a minimum as bright colours or patterns can take from the essence of
the photoshoot and be too distracting. The focus for a family photoshoot should be on the family
with little or no distractions, which is why we also use a neutral background to eliminate intrusion
from surrounding elements.
