FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY IN PARIS
Hello world-traveling family !
Congratulations ! You’re about to come to Paris, and you decided to get beautiful pictures of your family that you can cherish for a lifetime ! From candid family photos to your kids portrait and some couple photos of you 2, I’d be delighted to be your Paris family photographer !
YOUR PARIS FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER
Getting a Family photographer in Paris is indeed a great idea ! A Family selfie is fun here and there, but if you’re looking to have this great family/group picture that you can hang on a wall, mixed with beautiful children portraits in front of the Eiffel Tower and/or a few romantic pictures of you 2, you definitely need a professional photographer in Paris:)
Every family is different… and so is every photo session ! SO as your family photographer in Paris, I’ll be sure to welcome your ideas and make suggestions to make the most of it!
Lifetime Photos of your family !
So dress casual or formal, be quiet or crazy as you are used to be, and let’s have a great time together in Paris !
My photography as a photographer in Paris for families has a natural relaxed approach, focusing on the personality and style of every family and individual, mixing fine-art, portraits and candid photos.
TIPS FOR FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY IN PARIS:
Let’s get prepared !
1. Keep it short !
By experience I know that kids and especially toddlers can’t focus for a long time, so I recommend to keep it short, with a maximum family photoshoot of 2 to 2.5hrs (with 2 to 3 locations).
2. Let’s get some gorgeous group & family shots…
From some group pictures of the whole family to smaller ones (mother/daughter pictures, kids together, etc.), you can think beforehand of the different configurations of pictures you’d like. No worries though, I’m used to do this and guide, so if you’re not sure, I’ll always suggest the different possible groups, but will also guide you if you want different types of pictures (portraits, candid moment, etc.)
3. …and let’s have candid moments too !
By being used to deal with young children and toddlers, I also know that we can’t expect them to be smiling the whole time to the camera ! So we’ll make sure to vary the poses, going from some formal group photos to some candid ones, including some fun ones, close-up portraits and others in motion. It’s just also a great way to get real expressions and emotions and get creative pictures !
3. Anticipate your photo session in Paris
a. before traveling to Paris :
Of course, we will first decide about the locations ! If you want, you can send me some of my photos that you really liked (Portfolio, Blog, Instagram…) including your favorite locations or poses or that you’d like me to try recreating.
Think of what you’ll need on the photoshoot’s day and pack accordingly. Remember that you’ll be traveling, so you won’t have the comfort from home. For example make sure to pack your complete outfit(s), your beauty kit, your electric iron and/or hair straightener (and the fitting power converter) or check with the hotel if they have one.
b. before your photoshoot :
Download & use Uber app to get easily to the meeting point. Take some flats or sandals for in between the shots in case you’re planning on wearing painful high heels, and also an extra jackets as some mornings can still be a bit chilly in spring and Fall. In general, keep what you’re taking with you to the minimum (small water, wallet, phone…)
Family, Fun and Eiffel Tower !
That’s it, you’re almost ready for your family photoshoot in Paris !
But no worries, we’ll be in touch by email before our photo session, and we’ll get prepared accordingly before we will meet !
