Candid vs. Posed: Finding the Balance in Authentic Family Photos
We all love flipping through those photo albums filled with candid laughs, silly expressions, and heartwarming embraces. what about those perfectly posed family portraits that make you feel like you’re flipping through a magazine? It’s the age-old dilemma: candid or posed? Fear not, because we’re here to explore how to strike that perfect balance and get the most authentic family photos ever.
Capturing Candids
Candid photography has always had my heart. There is something about capturing a pure, natural moment when no one thinks anyone is watching. It allows us to glimspe real life glances, joy, and laughter. Candid images capture the essence of your family just as you are.
But how do we make those candid moments look extra beautiful?
Posed Perfection
When you think of posed photography, you may picture stiff and uncomfortable poses with forced smilies. Lucky for us all, this type of posing is a thing of the past. Modern posed photography is all about bringing out your family’s personalities in a creative and comfortable way.
I lightly pose the families I photograph by telling them where or how to stand together and then give them a prompt or two that will either make everyone laugh or draw them into a closer, more intimate connection. This brings the two worlds of posed and candid photography together!
Your Family’s Perfect Blend
As your photographer it is my goal to create an environment where you can be comfortably YOU. I’ll capture those candid interactions and help you pose in ways that feel natural, not forced. Remember, it’s not about stiff poses; it’s about creating beautiful memories that speak volumes about your family’s story.
Cheers to finding the balance and embracing the real, beautiful, and utterly awesome family you have!
