Hey everyone,
I got asked last minute to take some family pictures today and as I am very excited...im a bit nervous as well. As much as I have been practicing, I definately have not had much experience with family pictures. It seems to be kind of a lot to get straight in my mind! Its a family of 5...mom,dad,15 year old daughter, and then a 4 year old and a 7 year old boy. I was just hoping you all could give me some tips to head me in the right direction. They say they mostly want candid pictures...not much formal at all. Being I don't know this family very well, that should make things interesting haha. As far as camera specifics, I'll be using a 50mm 1.4. Shooting an entire family such as this I guess I should be very careful not to have my aperture too far open correct?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
