How to Prepare your Home for a Family Photography Lifestyle Session
A family photography session is a great way to capture memories that will last a lifetime. But before your session in your Hampshire home there are a few steps you can take to make sure your home looks its best and is ready for the big day. Here are some tips on how to get your house ready for a family session in your home.
Clear Away Clutter For Your Family Photography Session
The first step in preparing your home for your family photography session is clearing away any clutter. Remove items from tabletops, shelves, and other surfaces that might be distracting or detract from the aesthetic of the image. Once you’ve cleared away the clutter, it’s time to start styling and decorating! Bring out any decorative pieces that you want to be included in the photos—such as vases, candles, books, family heirlooms etc.—and arrange them around your home in visually pleasing ways. This will help create an aesthetically pleasing background that won’t distract from the main focus of your photo: your family!
Choose Comfortable and Neutral Clothing For Your Family Photography Session
When choosing outfits for yourself and your family members for the home photoshoot, keep comfort in mind. Select clothing that fits properly so everyone feels comfortable and confident during the shoot. Avoid garments with busy patterns or loud colors as they may draw too much attention away from faces—choosing solid-colored clothing instead helps bring focus back onto people rather than their attire. You should also consider picking out clothes that coordinate but don’t match exactly; this will ensure that everyone looks cohesive without appearing overly uniformed or staged. I love warm neutral colours like browns, creams and rusts. I have so many beautiful options for you to choose from in my Client Closet like high-quality maxi dresses for mums and adorable hand-knitted rompers for baby!
With just a bit of preparation and attention to detail beforehand, you can ensure beautiful shots come out of your next home family photography session!
