Planning for Family Photos

You’ve decided that it’s time to have updated family portraits!  Yay!  Whether your family includes adults, children, fur babies, grandparents, or friends, be sure to have family portraits made regularly.  Family portraits are so important.  For children, seeing family portraits on the walls makes them feel valued, loved, and part of a strong support system in the home.  As the kids get older, we tend to get busy and forget to make time for family portraits.  Make family portraits a priority and you’ll have them forever to treasure.

Planning for family photos can sometimes be the most daunting part of the process.  At Tara Flannery Photography, we help you through the entire process.  We start with an in-home consultation to discuss things like location and wardrobe.  I’ll even go through your closet and help you pick out outfits if that will help!  Since wardrobe is the most stressful part for most moms (who are usually doing the organizing), I’ll help with ideas for color, style, and individual pieces that will make a beautiful cohesive look for the family.

Family and Senior Portraits for The Rollos

When Bina contacted me about family and senior portraits, I was really excited.  The family needed updated portraits and then her son is also a senior and so we discussed taking a few of him alone during the family session.  During the consultation, we talked about location and wardrobe.  She already had some ideas of shirts for the boys that she showed me and we built the outfits from there.  We also discussed the family’s style and personalities.  After the consultation, I felt like I had known them for a long time and could easily give them family portraits that they would love!  And at the reveal appointment, they loved all of them!  I’m so excited that the family now has beautiful updated family portraits.  And they have senior portraits for their son too!

You don't need to BE confident to show up for a headshot session. The session creates the confidence.

Most professionals avoid updating their headshots because they think they need to feel confident first. But that's backwards. 

My clients are always surprised by how great their photos look—and that instant confidence boost changes how they show up in their business.

Here's what happens when you work with me: 👇🏼

→ I guide your posing so you look natural and professional
→ I direct your expression so your personality shines through
→ I handle the lighting so you look polished and approachable
→ You walk away with imagery that makes you feel like the expert you already are

You don't need to know how to pose or what to do with your hands. That's my job. Your job is just to show up.

Ready to stop waiting until you "feel confident enough"? Let's create the confidence together.

Here's the truth 👇🏻

Most professionals avoid headshots because they're scared it'll feel awkward, forced, or fake.

But here's what happens when you skip it ⬇️

❌ Outdated LinkedIn profiles
❌ Inconsistent team branding
❌ Missed opportunities to build instant credibility.

Your headshot isn't just a photo. It's your first impression working 24/7 across every platform where your business shows up.

Ready to get this handled without the stress? Let's create headshots that actually represent the confident professional you are.

Can you spot the difference? 👀

Same company. Same brand consistency. Three different years.

This is the power of a group composite - and it's a game-changer for growing teams.

Here's how it works 👇🏻 

Instead of wrestling with everyone's schedule to get your entire team in one place at one time (we all know that's impossible), I photograph each person individually. Then I composite them together into a polished group photo that looks like everyone showed up on the same day.

Why this solves your biggest scheduling nightmare:

✅ New hire starts next month? Add them seamlessly to your existing team photo
✅ Team member leaves? Update the composite without re-scheduling everyone
✅ Remote employees? They can get photographed separately and added in
✅ Someone's unavailable on photo day? No problem - we'll catch them later
✅ Your team photo always looks current and complete

Most businesses struggle with outdated team photos because coordinating 15+ calendars feels impossible. Group composites eliminate that friction entirely.

Here's the truth: feeling awkward on camera isn't about you—it's about not knowing what to do with yourself.

Most professionals freeze up because they're thinking about how they look instead of what they're communicating. That self-consciousness? It shows up in every frame.

Here's what actually works:
✅ Give yourself something to do with your hands (gesture naturally, hold something meaningful) 
✅ Think about your MESSAGE, not your appearance 
✅ Remember: confidence comes from preparation, not perfection 

When you show up prepared and focused on serving your audience, that natural confidence comes through. And that's what builds credibility and connection.

Need professional imagery that actually represents the confident leader you are? 

Let's talk about creating headshots and brand content that work as hard as you do.

Exciting update for 2025: I’m now using Headshot Tools to make your team headshots even smoother!

Here's the truth: The hardest part of team headshots isn't the photography—it's the chaos that comes after.

Tracking who chose which image. Chasing down approvals. Keeping everyone organized.

This year, I've integrated a system that eliminates all of that:

✨ Private proof galleries for each team member
📸 They choose their favorite on their own time
✅ I see selections instantly and deliver retouched images back to their gallery

No group emails. No confusion. No chasing people down.

When you bring me to your next corporate event, your team gets professional headshots without the coordination nightmare.

Want flawless, consistent headshots every single time? Here's the secret 👇🏻

The right equipment and settings.

When you're starting out, headshot photography can feel inconsistent—great results one session, frustrating the next.

Here's what I've learned: Consistency isn't about luck. It's about dialing in your setup.

✅ The right lens and focal length
✅ Lighting that flatters every face
✅ Camera settings you can replicate
✅ A process that works under pressure

When you nail these fundamentals, you stop second-guessing yourself. Your clients get professional results every time. And you build a reputation for quality they can count on.
