Portrait Sitting Helpful Hints!


HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
First of all your portrait sitting will last 45mins unless I have specifically stated otherwise.  So if you are asked to arrive at say 2pm please give yourself a few minutes to arrive early get your coat off and try to get familiar with the studio especially if small children are coming down for the first time.

WHAT TO BRING?
If its a family shoot including the parents I would recommend bringing 2 changes of clothing, I normally recommend a white t shirt and jeans shoot as they often work the best with the white backdrop and keep everyone in the same colours.  The second set of clothing just block colour red / blue / black its for photographs with a different backdrop so it  will give you another set up to chose from.

WHAT ABOUT PROPS?
I have a small box of bits and bobs but I must say that children work well when they have their own toys with them.  Feel free to bring what ever you need to get the shot.  I have had people bring bikes and trikes, if they crack a smile when they are on it I really dont mind!



Even a small prop like a flower necklace might be enough to make them smile.


WHERE IS THE STUDIO?
We are based in North Belfast I will have sent you directions to the studio directly, if your stuck email camille@pure-pictures.co.uk

WHAT IF MY CHILD IS NOT WELL?
Just let me know as early as you can so that I can maybe put another family in your slot.  Children get sick all the time so you are better rescheduling than getting portraits taken that you wont like. 

WHAT HAPPENS IN A NORMAL SESSION?
We try and take photographs from about 5 different angles on a white and black backdrop so that you get a range of shots to chose from.  Fun is the name of the game so be prepared to get silly and just relax, this will make for better photographs :)  If you have a specific shot that you want you need to let me know in advance I will try my best to make it happen for you.
