Holding a festive holiday photoshoot in Chicago
A cozy holiday photoshoot in Chicago means beautiful pictures to share with relatives and friends. But it can be a busy affair, getting the kids to smile and stay clean, finding the right apparel, and so on. Finding the best venue for your shoot need not be difficult, however. Nor does planning the shoot have to be a dull matter. Let's break it down into easy to understand steps, shall we?
A holiday-themed photoshoot means coordinating everyone's dress to fit the mood. Halloween-themed photo shoot? Creative costumes with makeup and scary poses. Christmas card photos for the relatives? Dress your best (or put on some classically tacky Christmas sweaters) and schedule a shoot in a studio setting. Thanksgiving, birthdays, and other holidays
Next we need a photographer to take our photos. It's worth taking your time and looking through many portfolios to see whose style best matches the creative vision you have in mind. Some prefer shooting in studios, with carefully controlled lighting and backgrounds. Others prefer natural light and the great outdoors. Both are excellent for creative holiday photography.
Creative holiday photoshoot ideas in Chicago
For diversity, ease of access, and Chicago flavor, it's hard to beat Tom Ping Memorial Park. Located in the Chinatown district, the memorial park has an industrial character, with nearby walking paths and water access. Here, you can rent kayaks if you're looking to tell a holiday lifestyle story through photography.
The South Garden of the Art Institute of Chicago is located on S Michigan Avenue. The Fountain of the Great Lakes is an easily recognizable landmark, as are the nearby skyscrapers and bustling pedestrian traffic. People come from all over the city to hold holiday, wedding, and engagement photo shoots here.
Best places to take holiday photos in Chicago
Deciding where to take holiday photos in Chicago is as important as choosing the right photographer. You and your loved ones are the subjects but the background gives context to viewers. Are you looking for an outdoor outing style family photoshoot? If so, then local parks, botanical gardens, and beaches are the place to begin. A mixture of posed portraits and candid snapshots of the kids playing is traditional. Ask your photographer if the dog can come along, too. Four legged family members should always be included when possible.
Winter photography can complicate matters since outdoor photography gets difficult. Unless you're dressed for the weather it's time to bring the shoot indoors. Fortunately, there are thousands of photo studios in the Windy City where you can sit with studio lighting for a successful shoot. Factory lofts, with their large windows and exposed brick walls, are ideal as they are customizable. A few backdrops, accessory lights, and props and you can create any scene for family holiday photos.
