A. Finding the perfect photographer for your family's portraits can be overwhelming. Searching for "Dallas family photographer" in itself can result in hundreds (thousands?) of results - each one offering a different style in a different price range.
First off, look at the images in the category of photography you're most interested in. Study the images. Are they in interesting locations? Are beautiful, natural expressions captured? Do the subjects look comfortable? How about the lighting and clothing choices? Images should not look too bright or too dark and clothing should coordinate under the photographer's guidance. Do your research and then give the photographer a call for questions on the details!
A. I found this wonderful quote that sums up our industry well. "Digital technology has caused many changes in the world of photography in recent years. One big change is an incredible influx of people starting up ‘photography businesses’. Having a ‘photography business’ is not the same as being a Professional Photographer. "
It takes years of education and experience before a photographer can find their own style let alone return consistent results to the consumer. Sort through websites but don't just base your decision on price. The old saying, "You get what you pay for" definitely applies to portrait photography.
