Family Photography

£295 + VAT | 1 day

Learn how to master studio and outdoor natural light portraiture, helping you create and sell beautiful family portrait sessions.

This course is an action packed day of shooting and education. You’ll start the day learning how to best prepare for your shoots, picking up some great business tips on how to price and sell your family sessions. We then move onto teaching studio photography, using a flattering but simple one-light system (which easily fits into the boot of a car). All equipment and camera settings will be well explained in detail, so you walk away understanding how to achieve the best results.

Our first shoot is with a mum and her baby or toddler, with ample time for you to direct your own photographs and build some gorgeous portfolio shots.

For our second shoot we’ll head outside to photograph a different family in a nearby park or woodland close to the studio. We’ll teach you how to work with different backgrounds, how to get the most from natural light and how to direct the chaos to achieve amazing results.

This really is a busy day of shooting, learning and family fun.

(NB – To ensure that every student gets plenty of time shooting we limit the class size on this course to just 8, so book early to reserve a place.)
