What to Expect During an On-Location Photography Session With Janssen Photography

1. Pre-Shoot Communication

Prior to the session, we will typically communicate with you to discuss the details such as the location, the purpose of the shoot, your preferences, and any specific shots you want to achieve.

2. Arrival at the Location

Arrive at the chosen location a little early to get settled. The photographer will likely scout the area to identify the best spots for shooting based on lighting and backgrounds.

3. Getting Comfortable

Allow some time for you to relax and feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photographer may suggest some warm-up poses or activities to help you ease into the session.

4. Variety of Shots

Expect to take a variety of shots. Our Photographers usually try different angles, poses, and settings to capture the best images. Be open to spontaneous ideas that might arise during the shoot.

5. Posing Guidance

Our Photographer will guide you through poses. If you're unsure of how to pose, don't hesitate to ask for direction to help achieve natural-looking images.

6. Changes in Lighting

Be prepared for changes in lighting conditions, especially if the session spans several hours. Our Photographer will adjust accordingly, which might involve moving to different areas or adjusting camera settings.

7. Breaks as Needed

If the session is lengthy, the photographer may suggest taking short breaks to hydrate, rest, and review shots. This also helps to keep up energy levels and maintain a positive atmosphere.

8. Capturing Candid Moments

In addition to posed shots, the photographer may capture candid moments. These on-the-spot images can convey genuine emotions and interactions, which often result in some of the best photographs.

9. Wrap-Up and Review

At the end of the session, the photographer will typically review the key images with you and discuss any next steps regarding editing and delivery of the final photos.

10. Post-Shoot Follow-Up

After the shoot, stay in touch for updates on the photo editing process. Photographers often take time to curate and polish the images before delivering the final products to you.
