Posing families<\/h2>\n<p>Kids will usually want to hog the limelight, while parents (and Dads, in particular) may not be totally into it. So try bringing the kids forward and have the parents in the background. Similarly, if their pet is along for the shoot then frame it up in front with everyone behind for a fun family portrait.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_119066&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 820px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-119066\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-go-to-camera-settings.jpg\" alt=\"Paterson portraits go-to camera settings\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-go-to-camera-settings.jpg 800w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-go-to-camera-settings.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-go-to-camera-settings.jpg?resize=599,400 599w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-go-to-camera-settings.jpg?resize=562,375 562w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-go-to-camera-settings.jpg?resize=600,400 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Credit: James Paterson<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<h2>3. Go-to camera settings<\/h2>\n<p>I like to shoot in Manual Mode with Auto ISO. This way I can keep the shutter speed fast enough to capture the action (usually 1\/250sec or higher) and adjust the aperture to control depth of field. With single portraits I use a wide aperture around f\/2.8 for shallow focus, while with groups I would rarely go below f\/5.6.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_119064&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 820px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-119064\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-fun.jpg\" alt=\"Paterson portraits fun\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-fun.jpg 800w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-fun.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-fun.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2018\/05\/Paterson-portraits-fun.jpg?resize=562,374 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Credit: James Paterson<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<h2>4. Keep it fun<\/h2>\n<p>Children tend to get bored quickly so if you sense attention levels are dropping then try injecting some energy into the shoot: ask them to jump around, play catch with their siblings, shout silly words, tickle each other \u2013 anything that perks them up. Even if you don\u2019t get any good shots during the action, you\u2019re more likely to catch better expressions afterwards.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>5. Planning is key<\/h2>\n<p>If you have a family portrait shoot coming up then jot down a few posing ideas beforehand. Things can often change when the shoot gets going, but if you can call upon a few tried-and-tested poses first then you can lead up to more ambitious ideas afterwards. Before you get the camera out, spend time chatting with the family to find out what they want to get out of the shoot as well.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>James Paterson is an award-winning journalist and photographer.
