Redwood City Family Session

Families November 28, 2018

I got to take pictures of my coworker’s family for their Christmas card!

I brought my 50mm and my full frame. I kind of wish I had brought my Sigma 35, but the 50 just looks so great on a full frame with minimal distortion. Plus for a Christmas card I feel like it’s more important to see the people in the picture rather than the surroundings anyway! So it worked out.

Since we were in one spot it was a lot easier/quicker to edit these since I could be more consistent, but the sun came out a little bit halfway through! So it got a little bit brighter and warmer, which I was happy about. I’m glad we ended up being able to make this time work because it’s supposed to rain the rest of the week.

I really like taking pictures of families and capturing in between moments and the silliness and joy. I’m still learning how to pose (especially details like hands, shoulders, feet, etc) and part of me doesn’t want to get that nitpicky because I want things to be natural and real, but I should also learn to adjust people so that when I take pictures of people who aren’t as comfortable/photogenic, I can make them feel better and confident! (This family was photogenic though so it was less work.)

Goodbye 2020! May 2021 be full of health and grati Goodbye 2020! May 2021 be full of health and gratitude for the things you still have. 

My 2020 year in review blog is up (link in bio)! I’ve posted the majority of my 2020 blogs in the last 2 weeks 🙃 so the content may not seem too new, but I love recaps and reviewing what I did/learned. Also if you missed all those blogs you can just read this one 🤣

Spoiler: I did a LOT of photo education on nights and weekends this year. 

I have some 2021 photo goals (some vague ones) in my blog that I hope to achieve/pick away at next year 🤓. I try to keep most of my goals creative rather than financial because I’m trying to keep this fun for myself!
