Family Portraiture Shoot - Meloney
This was a fun impromptu family shoot of personal friends of mine. I have know Meloney and her family for many years and promised her a shoot. Family portraiture is fairly simple to do, those being photographed need to be themselves, relaxed and to simply have fun behind the camera. We are capturing a moment in time that can’t be repeated, however, that moment can be returned to in the form of photographs and treasured forever.
Meloney’s children are very busy, active, excited and fun children to be around, that being said, kids should be kids and left to be who they are. I was able to capture some really special, natural moments that required no effort from my part to capture the very essence of who they are, that they can treasure for time to come. This is the part of photography that I really enjoy, when going to work is fun and not work!
My gear I used for this shoot was a Nikon D800e which is great as a studio camera at 36.3mp, and my Nikon D4 which is a great action camera at 16mp, shot outdoors in natural light to achieve the results in the images below.
There will be a follow up shoot to this soon, watch this space.
