Getting Into the Family Photography Biz?

Family photography is a great way to make a living. Not only is it always in demand, but it also allows you to work with some truly exciting clients.

But how do you break in?

Here’s a quick tip from one of our articles:

“It’s a good idea to approach either your own family or a good friend to offer them a shoot for free. First, you do need their permission to use it for your marketing! Go through your whole process with them as if they were a new customer you’d never met before, to check everything works properly. Discuss what they expect from their session, set a time and place, and help with things like clothing and décor so it all looks perfect.”
