5 Tips for Photographing Multiple Siblings in Italy

Tip 3:  Incorporate Defining Details

THIS NEXT PHOTO IS MY FAVORITE!!!!!  To best prepare myself and my clients for an upcoming photo shoot, I love to ask mom what the kids are into.  Incorporating Defining Details helps tell the story of each unique family. You’ve heard me talk about Defining Details for years, but it never grows old when you see the different expression it brings to every family!  It just happens to be that these sisters LOVE reading!  They are proud, beautiful bookworms.  Their love for reading was the inspiration for the portrait.

Look at these 5 Tips for Photographing Multiple Siblings on fioria.us

You want to especially allow yourself space to try different combinations, different set ups, where they should stand, etc.  We took some time getting the right set up for this portrait.  It was important for me to allow each sister to not only engage with her book but do it in such a way that is true to her personality.  The different poses each one is doing is subtle but also speaks to who they are which is valuable when photographing multiple siblings.
