Family Photos in Eastern Idaho

Eastern Idaho Photographer

Being a photographer in Eastern Idaho can sometimes be a challenge. There are so many people with a camera who think they want to be a photographer, so building up a cliental can be somewhat difficult. This Eastern Idaho family gave me the privilege to go out with them and take their fall pictures.

Jessie Boone is a fantastic lady and she reached out to me and asked me to take her family pictures. We met together and discussed some things she was looking for when it came to the photo shoot. She wanted to make sure to have nice portraits of each of her six kids. She also wanted a couple of different horizontal family pictures with the fall colors.

I met with Jessie a week prior to having the photo shoot, which was on September 28 at 11:00. We were hesitant if the 5th was going to work because the forecast was rain the whole day, but it was the only day that was going to work for their family. Miraculously the sun came out just in time for us to meet up on October 5 and I was able to capture pictures of this beautiful family. They were the biggest family that I had every photographer and it was a little bit of a challenge getting the attention of all the children at the same time. I followed my plan pretty well and was able to get a good amount of pictures of both the family and the kids.

I gave her a quick preview, edited them and got them back to the Boone family by October 12. I seriously had the best time photographing this Eastern Idaho family. The rain stop for the perfect amount of time for us to get the session done because as soon as I took the last shot it started raining again.

Isn’t the mustard and navy the perfect colors to use for a fall family shoot? This families colors made for some amazing pictures. I was able to use all natural light for this family pictures and I made sure to keep my ISO at 200 since it was pretty bright outside even though it was a little overcast. When taking family pictures it’s also important to keep your f stop at 5.6 or higher so that people at different depths won’t be out of focus.
