Family formals do not have to take over 20 minutes. However, we can only shoot these portraits quickly if we plan in advance. Please list ten different groupings for family photos.
For example:
1. Bride and groom with parents.
2. Bride and Groom with grandparents.
3. Bride and Groom with siblings.
Within these groupings, you can have more than one shot (ex. B&G with Grooms parents, B&G with Brides Parents, etc.)
If you have a very large family and more than 10 group photos, I suggest saving some of the extended family shots until the reception so that family portrait time will not interfere with your romantic portraits and you will not keep your guests waiting at the reception.
Please inform me of any family members that may not get along and/or may not want to be grouped with a certain other family members so that we can avoid and awkward interactions during family formals:)
Thank you!!
Please list 10 Family Groupings for Family Portraits: (Please include names so that I can call family members by their first name as we organize the portraits) EX: B&G with Bride’s Parents (Kevin & Brenda) ALSO, please specify if there are STEP PARENTS and STEP SIBLINGS involved in portraits.
