Family photography is a real art and everyone prefers different styles, so picking your ideal photographer is key if you want pictures you love.

If that’s what you’re after, Martin Creates creates family portraits which evoke deep emotions and tell a powerful story.
What makes the best kind of family picture?
One of the key aspects of a sense of authenticity. You want a photographer to capture genuine emotions and interactions, whether between siblings, parents or the entire family. You don’t just want smiley faces but a sense of the connection and love between you all.
That’s why candid moments often convey the true spirit of family better than carefully posed shots. Martin Creates often works with families in London who want him to capture those spontaneous moments that reflect real emotions.
If a picture is posed, it’s best to encourage a relaxed rather than rigid position. Martin is great at making everyone feel relaxed during a session.
A professional like Martin Creates can ensure the composition and lighting is first class.
Many people understandably struggle with the technical aspects of photography: composition and lighting. These play a crucial role in the quality of a family picture. A striking composition directs the viewer's eye and highlights the subjects effectively.
In many cases, the rule of thirds is useful. This means positioning the subjects off-centre to create a more dynamic and interesting composition. Other techniques include ‘leading lines’, which involve using natural lines to draw attention to the main subjects.
For these types of pictures, natural light is often the most flattering; however understanding how to use artificial lighting can also make a significant difference.
The background and setting make a big difference.
Martin Creates can take pictures in a range of settings and with all kinds of backgrounds. He can help choose those which add context and depth to the image. Whether it’s in your own home, at a London park, or in the countryside, you want the surroundings to enhance the overall mood.
In such pictures, it’s best to avoid cluttered or distracting backgrounds. You also want settings that match your family's personality and style.
Often, an attention to detail can elevate a family photograph from good to great. This includes everything from the choice of clothing to the smallest accessories that add a personal touch. For instance, you might want to wear harmonising colours, or use props to add character to the pictures.
