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!

What should you wear for your headshot session?
It depends on how you want to show up.

Your outfit sets the tone — and the right level of polish helps you appear confident, credible, and uniquely you.

Here are 4 levels of formality to help you choose the best look for your headshots 👇🏻

1️⃣ The Modern Suit Jacket
Crisp, structured, and powerful. Perfect for executives, attorneys, and leadership roles.

2️⃣ Soft Professional (No Jacket)
A sleek blouse or polished top with clean lines. Professional without being stiff — great for coaches, consultants, and entrepreneurs.

3️⃣ Elevated Casual (Sweaters & Knits)
A fitted knit or stylish sweater gives an approachable, warm, and modern vibe. Ideal for creatives, educators, or small business owners.

4️⃣ Casual Short Sleeve
Simple, solid, and flattering. Feels relaxed but still polished — great for wellness pros, lifestyle brands, or startup teams.

✨ Quick Styling Tips:
– Stick to solid colors that flatter your skin tone
– Skip busy prints & distracting accessories
– Choose wrinkle-free, well-fitting pieces
– Bring a backup outfit or layering option!

🎯 Not sure what’s best for your brand?

We go over wardrobe during your pre-session consultation — so you’ll feel 100% confident in what you wear and how you show up.

His headshot made him more money… and here’s why 👇🏼

When my videographer finally swapped his profile photo for the professional headshot I took, something changed.

✅ More responses to cold DMs
✅ Better leads
✅ Real revenue growth

All from one simple update.

It’s not magic — it’s psychology.

🤝 People do business with people.

They want to see the face behind the brand, connect with a real human, and feel like they can trust who they’re hiring or buying from.

Your headshot is often the first impression you make online. Make sure it actually represents the real you — confident, approachable, and ready for the opportunities you want to attract.

These 5 photos will completely transform your real estate brand 👇🏼

Whether you’re a solo agent building a personal brand or a growing team trying to stand out in a crowded market—your photos matter.

Because real estate is personal. People want to see who they’re working with and feel like they can trust you.

Here are 5 must-have brand photos I recommend for every real estate professional:

📸 Professional Team or Solo Portraits
Polished but approachable. Whether it’s a team shot or a solo headshot, these are the foundation of your brand.

📸 Cohesive Headshots
A unified look builds brand recognition and creates a stronger first impression—especially across platforms.

📸 Lifestyle Images
Show yourself (or your team) in action: walking a property, chatting with clients, reviewing listings. These help clients picture the experience of working with you.

📸 Detail Shots
From signage to coffee cups and closing folders, detail shots add depth and personality to your brand story.

📸 On-Location Photos
Highlight your market and your vibe—whether it’s downtown, the suburbs, or somewhere in between.

✨ Ready to level up your real estate brand? Contact me and let’s create images that actually work for your business.
