3. Essential Adoption Portraits

January 16, 2007

Essential planned photos

Portraits are more planned than many shots you will capture. They provide the opportunity to capture people looking their best, to accentuate a scene by including a background that is memorable in a foreign country, or of simply getting both partners in a photo by asking someone to help take a picture.

The couple, the individual parents, the child

Family: grandparents, siblings and family groups (holidays, events)

Birthparents, Early Caregivers (from Orphanages or Foster Care)
