families outdoors

[santer36]

i have done senior portraits and many other teenagers. this weekend i am

attempting to shoot a family and their dog. any ideas as to where to do this?

some type of location that is pretty much avail. anywhere. anyone have ideas?

i take teenagers to train tracks, the woods, grafiti covered walls, etc... i

just don't believe a family of 4 and their dog would look right in that kind of

setting. any ideas would be great. they are wearing black and tan.

thanks everyone.

If you have any nearby beaches or ponds those could be good locations to consider. Their house could also be a good place. The family bedroom, the living room, or outdoor stairs. Much of it depends on how good of decorators they are, how good the natural lighting is, how big the rooms are and the amount of nick-knacks (junk) they leave lying around.

 

Maybe they have a favorite family spot they like to visit. Give them suggestions on what types of locations you are looking for (backgrounds with certain color themes, soft light/hard light, etc.) and ask them to give you several suggestions. Then give yourself some time to scout them out and determine which ones if any match your vision of what you want the photo to look like.

 

Without know your location or any other details not much else can be suggested.
