  • Description


    • Tracy introduces the class and discusses what will be covered in the lessons that follow.
    • Setting clear expectations with parents and getting key questions answered ensures a more successful outcome.
    • You must work in concert with the parent’s vision for the final images so that the desired outcome can be achieved.
    • When you meet the children for the first time you want to put them at ease and make the atmosphere calm.
    • These are the three keys to capturing dynamic sibling photographs.
    • Even if the parent’s haven’t articulated it clearly, you always want to capture that one standard portrait every parent wants to see.
    • There are opportunities for magical shots during those in-between times when moving from one pose to another.
    • Sometimes you just have to make the best with what you have.
    • Tracy is joined by a second set of siblings on location at the marina.
    • The rain has stopped, so Tracy has moved out onto the dock to create more photos with the sisters.
    • Working with a new pair of sisters, Tracy demonstrates how she works in a garden setting.
    • Starting with a look through some of the photos, Tracy then moves into her post processing in Lightroom.
