Our publisher, Christine Pilkington, was on Global TV today talking about how to get the best photographs of your family. If you missed it, here’s an overview.

Hire a pro

Yes, your phone camera has a timer, but it’s well worth getting a professional involved at least once a year. Professional photographers spend all day getting the best shots of people – they will capture you and yours in the best light possible. And you will actually be in the shot, there’s a lot to be said for that!

What to ask a professional photographer

It may seem intimidating if you’ve never worked with a photographer before, but here’s a list of the things you should ask before you agree to a shoot:

  • How much will it cost? What will you get in the end? (DVD of all the images, canvas prints, framed prints, etc)
  • Will the photographer come to you?
  • How soon will you see the results of your photoshoot and how? How soon will prints be available?

How to find a professional photographer
