Posing for a family portrait is never as easy as its name implies: there is far more effort and time required to pose. What should we wear? How should we stand? Should we smile? Where should the portrait take place? If you work with a professional, he or she can typically help you with family portrait tips. If you're working on your own, however, these choices can be overwhelming.Here are a few key family portrait tips that will help ensure that your family's portrait is as beautiful and stress-free as possible.

Family Portrait Tip 1: The Basics: As you begin to plan your family portrait, first think about the image and feeling you want to convey. Your family portrait may be for a holiday greeting card or a yearly mailer to far-flung family members. Or it may be destined to hang on your wall, or in your office at work.Do you want to convey a fun, lighthearted feeling? A sedate, regal one? Think about your family members and their personalities, and devise a portrait theme that will allow their individuality to shine. After you've chosen a theme or a feeling, the rest of your decisions become easier.

Family Portrait Tip 2: Choosing a Setting: After you've decided the feeling you want to convey, it's time to select the backdrop for your portrait.If you're planning to do a portrait shoot inside a studio, you must select the color of the background in the studio. This is the simplest of options, as the portrait's lighting is in complete control of the photographer. Studio backdrops are typically more formal and standard than an outdoor setting.
