Professional Photographs

If you have never had professional portraiture done, you may be surprised at how fun it can be – and how fantastic it can look. There are a variety of different ways that you can express a certain emotion, show off your loved ones or announce a big event.

Here are five wonderful ideas that you can use to get your creativity flowing when it comes to a productive snapshot session.

1) Pet Portraits

Many people have at least one pet that they adore. Pets bring us so much joy throughout their lives, so it makes sense that we would want to immortalize and honor them through some skilled portraiture.

You can have images of your furry, feathery or scaly friend done at any point in his or her life. Portraits of newborn puppies or stately older cats can be equally charming and meaningful. Bring props like flowers, toys and/or treats to create a whimsical atmosphere.

2) Expecting Mother

Pregnancy is a fleeting time in the life of a mother-to-be. It can also be a time when she is looking her loveliest; health and joy radiate from an expectant mother in an otherworldly manner.

As such, it can be nice to commemorate this time with a series of beautiful, tender photos.

3) New Baby

While a pregnancy session can be much easier logistically than one with a brand new child, this is another important time that you don’t want to pass by without lots of photographs.

Your child is only an infant once, and it’s certain that many of your loved ones are clamoring to see the adorable little one. Make it easy for everyone to get an eyeful by sending out cards that feature your baby.

Black and white or sepia tones can add a timeless elegance.

4) Children’s Hobbies

As children grow, they start going to school and developing their own very distinct personalities. In order to keep family members abreast of their development, it can be fun to send out pictures of your child that showcase a hobby he or she now has.

You can have your kids wear their sports uniforms or dance attire, pose with musical instruments or art supplies. Any theme that demonstrates a new hobby can be a great choice.

5) Holiday Themes

Holiday portraits can be a nice idea because they can serve as gifts, greetings or milestone updates. You can have images snapped each year at the same time, or in different seasons.

Holiday depictions can include any of the aforementioned subjects, or they can showcase a new couple or other combinations of loved ones.
