Portraits...with a Barbie Family!

Our latest exercise was to take portraits of a family that isn't living! 

Your client is a family, and you need to get a set of pictures that includes but isn't limited to:

a) just Mom & Dad
b) the kids together
c) each kid individually
d) the entire family

Dad wasn't a member of the family until the 2nd shoot, lol...and the littlest girl just wouldn't co-operate in individual pictures (aka I just shot and forgot to check the types of pics I needed, lol).

 Lastly, the one above is my favorite family picture.

  This one above of mom and baby girl is one of my favorites!

 

This was a fun exercise and my girls loved playing with the barbies (although a few times I had to say give it back, lol) and both were happy to get a new Ken doll.

Happy Easter everyone!

Portraiture Workshop

What a fun day, but I won't be ashamed to admit it was difficult working with so many photographers all trying to get in and snap pictures! lol

I regret that I didn't get a chance to photograph the boys and their mom, I went inside as they were coming out and the few I did take inside just aren't good, so sorry!

I was happy to play with my brand new 50mm f1.4 lens, but with that it came a bit of learning and lots of pics that didn't turn out. These are all unedited as I am just at the beginning stages of teaching myself photoshop and it is proving to be more difficult than I thought it would be.

Any comments would be appreciated...I apologize for the green screen, haven't figured out yet how to replace it!

So cute!

The above picture is my absolute favorite of the day!

Babies...love them!

 

Thank you so much to all the families and kids for allowing us to snap away and photograph your beautiful families!
