Hi Rebecca I saw in another video that you said you would give a list of 50 poses for children and family photos, I would be happy to receive it. Thank you very much
This was a great teaching moment as I never thought of concentrating on one little at a time to get them to look at the camera in a group shoot. I learned that eye swaps are easier than head swaps. When someone’s eyes are closed but everything else is perfect. Let me know what you think.
I just joined your behind the scenes group- but have my first paid session Sunday. This is an extended family lifestyle shoot outdoors, but they want a few group shots. I have a Canon 5d Mark III. Was planing to use my 35 mm, 50mm and 85mm lens for the shoot. My question is- how in the world do you get them all in focus at f2.8? did you line up their feet carefully so they are all on the same plane? what focus settings (61 point, etc) are you using? i try raising my aperture up to f4 and often still may have one person but not both/all in focus?
Great video! I love all the tips you give. I have a couple questions. Do you always shoot in high continuous release mode to take as many photos as possible as quickly as possible? Also, do you use single-point focusing and place your focus point on the eyes of the most center/closest person in the photo? Lastly, do you use back-button focusing or shutter focusing?
Also one more question. Since I don't have any portfolio, it's hard to advertise to a larger audience, I have taken some free sessions for family and friends, but any tips on this? How to advertise mini sessions if there is no example or previous work?
Thanks for the video! Do you provide templates for invoices/contracts/communication with clients if I take your class? That's what I want to learn about :)
Instead of posing people in a line, pose them in a semi-circle. Why? The (focal) distance from the camera's lens to EVERYONE is the same. When people are posed in a line, the outside person is further from the lens than the center person. Shooting with a wide aperture will cause people to be out of focus.

I'm feeling like the babies favorite squeeze/noise toy would have given you a baby look. Love your content!
Thanks for the video. Helpful when photographing small kids!

How do you do the face swaps?

Those templates are not included in Behind the Lens, but they are available in my shop! store.rebeccaricephoto.com
What lens are you using?
Which camera and lenses do you use?! By the way this is sooo awesome! 💕💕
In this session I shot with my Canon 5D Mark III and 85mm 1.4 lens!
Bubbles are a huge hit with kids. Enough said.
Yes! Love that!
I just got Dubsado and my client guide is too big to upload and send! How do you send your client experience guide?
