This year we can still expect to see a lot of the classic family photography trends but with a contemporary twist that will really make them stand out.

Here is what we can potentially expect to see more of this year in terms of family photography trends.

Bold Colors Photography Trend no.1

More and more photographers are encouraging their clients to experiment with bright hues and as a result it really adds a playful element for family photos. Backdrops and props make it easy to add pops of color to your photos. You can do this is to select outfits that add a fun splash of color to the mix. But don’t go overboard or pick patterns that could distract from the subjects.

Generational Shots Photography Trend no.2

We live in an age of storytelling, which is why multigenerational shots have become an increasingly popular photography trend. You never know how long someone is going to be around for so use this opportunity to capture parents, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren together. This is a wonderful keepsake that can be passed down through future generations.

Design Overlays Photography Trend no.3

With stickers being all over our social media, design overlays have started entering the world of photography too. These enhancements trends can be used to add creative touches to family photographs. It is certainly something that is especially popular during holidays, birthdays and special events. Ask your photographer if this you’re interested in this.

Milestone Shots Photography Trend no.4

Much of our milestone photography falls under the family photography umbrella and it’s a photography trend that doesn’t seem to be disappearing anytime soon. This includes everything from newborn shoots to capturing birthdays, new school years and achievements. More of us parents want to capture the small yet extra-special moments. 

Fun Poses Photography Trend no.5

Traditional poses will always have their place, but more families want to experiment with fun poses and angles when updating their albums. Our family sitting in a circle with the photographer capturing the shot from above is a great new angle. 

When it comes to photography, it’s always interesting to know what trends are currently doing the rounds. However, you should always stick to styles and settings that truly represent who your family is for the most authentic result.
