I wonder how many of us have thousands of photos of our kids growing up, but hardly any of the dog who was growing old right beside them???

The dog who was there before the kids, who probably had a very different life planned and now they’re just part of everything. We forget that our dogs are getting older while we’re so busy noticing how quickly our kids are growing and one day, these will be some of the photos we’re most grateful we took.

If you’ve ever lost a dog, I’m sure you’ll know there’s photos you wish you had of taken and just never got around to it, so this is your reminder ❤️‍🔥

I hate to break it to you but if you’re standing there with a completely straight face saying “okay now everyone laugh!” you’re probably going to get the most awkward fu***ng photos of your life 😂 If you want genuine reactions, you have to give people something to actually react to and sometimes that means making an absolute di****ad of yourself behind the camera.

Sorry, not trying to be a bitch but AI-generated promotional posters give me the absolute fu***ng ick 😂

And before someone comes for me, I’m not anti-AI. I’m anti-making your business look like a dodgy Facebook scam because you couldn’t be fu**ed spending 10 minutes in Canva.

You could be selling the cure for every minor inconvenience I’ve ever experienced and I’d still scroll straight past.

whether you like it or not, people make assumptions about the quality of your product based on how you PRESENT it and when your advertising looks cheap, fake and like absolutely zero effort went into it, why would I assume the product is any different?

You’ve somehow managed to:

• Make your business look less professional.
• Make your product look cheaper.
• Make people question whether your business is even legitimate.
• Create doubt about the quality of something they haven’t even tried.
• Make potential customers wonder what other corners you’re cutting.
• Save yourself 10 minutes while potentially costing yourself actual paying customers.

You’re using AI to make your business look BETTER, but you’re potentially achieving the exact fu***ng opposite.

I’m not saying you need to hire a graphic designer or spend six hours making a poster. I’m saying your marketing is often someone’s very first interaction with your business, and that first impression matters.

Sorry but if your advertising makes me question whether I can trust you, I’m not fu***ng buying.

I think photographers put SO much pressure on themselves to constantly come up with new poses when they haven’t even scratched the surface of the one they’ve already got 😂 no joke majority of my galleries are 250+ photos everytime and I struggle to get them that LOW!!!!!!

Once I’ve got mum and dad in a position I like, I’m milking absolutely everything I can out of it before I move them. Especially with kids involved because getting everyone back into position is a logistical nightmare hahaha.

Here’s a few things to try BEFORE you move mum and dad:

• Get your classic everyone-looking-at-the-camera photo first. Get it out of the way in the beginning

• Ask everyone to look at someone different. Mum at dad, dad at the kids, kids at each other. The laziest one, the one who farts the most, the fun parent etc etc

• Tell the kids to give mum or dad the biggest squeeze possible like they are trying to squish them into a pancake

• Get the kids to whisper something ridiculous into their parents ears. I usually tell them to say something naughty 😂

• MOVE YOUR OWN FEET. Shoot wide, come in close, shoot from the side, get down to the kids height. Your clients don’t need to do all the moving.

• Look for the little details. Hands holding, fingers wrapped around mum’s hand, kids leaning into their parents etc etc

• Get one kid to run towards you while everyone else stays put. Then swap kids. Then do all the kids

• Send the kids off to play for a minute and grab a few photos of mum and dad together.

• Stop talking for five seconds and see what happens naturally. Sometimes the photo you’re about to interrupt is better than the one you’re trying to create.

The biggest thing I want you to take away from this is that posing isn’t just knowing where to put people. It’s knowing what to do with them once they’re there.

Anyway, save this for your next family session!!!

And follow along because I’ve got eight years worth of posing s**t living rent-free in my head and I’ve decided to share it all here xx

there’s a difference between making your business easier to run and making it better to buy from, especially when somebody is choosing YOU because of how personal your work is.

I swear some photographers are getting through 47 prompts in a session when they could’ve gotten another 10 bloody photos out of the first one!!!!! You’ve got a whole Pinterest board of poses living in your head, you’re trying to keep things moving and you’re already thinking about what you’re going to get them to do next, But LOOK at how much changes between these photos and i’m barely changing what the couple is doing.

I’m getting them a little closer, making them laugh, changing my framing, getting down low and shooting up!!! And every time I make a little adjustment, I’m looking for something different.

one of the best things you can learn as a photographer is how to recognise when there’s still more to get out of a moment.

Somewhere a woman is trying to book family photos and her husband is wondering why the 47,000 photos on her phone aren’t enough. 😂 But I find the psychology behind this SO interesting. You can have someone completely obsessed with your work, ready to hand over $700, and still lose the booking to a man who’s never even heard of you. Which makes me wonder how much of our marketing needs to work on people who aren’t actually the ones following us???
