Watch me boss 38 people around... and no, I’m not joking! 😘
After 26 years of wedding photography, coordinating big groups is basically second nature to me, and it came in seriously handy for this one! This is officially the largest family portrait I’ve ever photographed (wedding groups aside). Four generations came together to celebrate Nonna Nina’s 95th birthday.
I put together a proper time plan before the day so nobody would be standing around waiting for two hours while we got through a huge list. And thanks to this family’s cooperation and a bit of planning on my end, we smashed through the entire shoot in an hour and forty minutes! I created a comprehensive shot list beforehand, and every single combination was approved by the family and ready to go before we even started 💪
And those outfits… can we just talk about them for a second, because every single person turned up looking cohesive, coordinated and absolutely stunning as a group. This is exactly why I send my clients a ‘what to wear’ guide before their session. Massive credit to this beautiful family for communicating so well with each other and for making Nonna Nina feel so loved on her 95th.
I also threw them a curveball with an idea they hadn’t even considered for Nonna’s wall… and they went for it without hesitation. Can’t wait to show you what they chose once it’s ready!
