A Family Photo Will Make an Ideal Christmas Gift
A Family Photo Will Make an Ideal Christmas Gift
If you're trying to find the perfect Christmas gift for grandparents, here are some reasons
you should consider a family portrait, and why you should have it done professionally
First off, grandparents love getting pictures of their grandkids but most likely don't have
any current photos of your entire family. Could be that the last picture they have of you
is your wedding picture from 15 years ago! And thus a family portrait makes a great gift!
So how do you go about getting a family portrait? You could ask a neighbor to take some
pictures of your family using your digital camera or go to a studio in the mall. But it's
a giftand it's a portrait of your family so you want it to be just perfect and done right!
Where do you start?
First off, have a consultation with a professional photographer. Set up a
consultation so you can tell the photographer how you envision your family portrait.
Determine if you want a formal picture or a casual picture.
Decide upon a setting. You may want to include your family standing around the
grand piano or under a big oak tree. Greg Gittsovich, from Accent Photography
in Minneapolis, MN states it perfectly, "helping my clients capture the moments
in their lives that mean the most."
Next think about the clothing. You may want to all be in black or jeans with white
shirts. Whatever clothes you choose, pick colors that work well together and
avoid splashy prints. Pick clothes that express who you are but keep in mind this
photo will be around for years to come!
Try to get a good night sleep but don't worry. A good photographer will have the
technology to brighten your eyes, smooth out wrinkles and remove stains from
teeth.
One more thing to keep in mind with creating your family's portrait is to choose
the best background, lighting, and frame that will illustrate who your family is.
Your photographer will make recommendations.
And lastly make it fun. Capture your family interacting. A good photo not only
shows what your family looked like, but evokes memories and emotions.
When everything is done you will not only have a great gift for grandparents, but you will have a "timeless image that will bring back this moment in time for years and generations to come".
