31+ family picture ideas with props

It’s that time of year again! FAMILY PICTURES!! This is one thing I try to be on top of annually, especially since we don’t buy school pictures and depend on the more natural individual pictures of the kids.  My goal is to have the pictures done in October before the holidays run amuck and to have our Christmas cards shipped the week of Thanksgiving.  I LOVE getting friend’s cards in the mail and seeing their beautiful family’s faces another year older.  I’m super grateful to Minted for sponsoring today’s post since holiday cards are so near and dear to me, they have a giant variety to fit any religion, holiday or Christmas preference.  Check out these 31 family picture ideas with props then head to Minted to find a card to match!

  1. I love it especially when the props flow well with the backdrop. It can sometimes be a tricky thing to pull off and not come off as tacky. We try to create more of a memorable moment in our shoots in which our clients almost always bring a prop that is truly significant to them.

  2. The bright colors are super fun!! Love how those minted.com cards look. Remembering our own yearly family photos is a must! We have to remember to schedule them in our calendars to ensure that we get to create our own memories! {hugs!}

  3. Love these ideas! We are going to have our whole family together for Thanksgiving, which doesn’t happen very often, so I will for sure be using some of these awesome ideas for our family photo! And I love the non-traditional yellow Christmas cards you chose. So pretty and fun!
