The Art of Photographing Families: Embrace the Chaos!
Speaker: Jenny Pollitte (Website) (Social Media)
Do you cringe when you get an inquiry for a family session? Does the thought of losing control during the shoot due to unpredictable children or whiny-ass husbands make you veer away from the genre altogether? Well, you’re not alone! In this hands-on class, I will help you navigate and embrace the chaos that goes along with 99% of family sessions to still produce beautiful images that will have your clients saying, “”Wow, how in the WORLD did you get these?!”” when they come in for the sales session.
