10+ years of experience: what an experienced photographer means for your shoot

Short answerPhotostudio62 has been photographing since 2016, so for over 10 years now. You notice that experience during your shoot: children are welcomed calmly, the light is right without you having to wait for it and you know in advance what to expect. Many families have been coming back for years.

What does 10+ years of experience mean in practice?

Experience is not just a number. It is the difference between a photographer who has to search and a photographer who knows what will happen. After more than ten years Arda and Sinem know how a shoot goes, where it can go wrong and how to prevent that.

  • Calm: a crying fit, a nap or a feed in between is part of it. We plan time for it.
  • The child's pace: toddlers and babies cannot be directed. We follow them and gently steer.
  • Light and sets: we know which background and light suit your clothing and mood.
  • Clarity: you know the price, the duration and when your photos are ready in advance.

Experience with babies, toddlers and families

Most shoots involve children, and no child is the same. A shy toddler needs more time, a baby needs to be well fed and a large family needs a smart set-up. That is why we choose a simple approach: few poses, plenty of room and photos that feel like you. Read more tips in toddler photoshoot: tips and at the New Life shoot.

Families who come back year after year

Some families have been coming back every year for almost ten years: first for the pregnancy, then for the first birthday and after that for the annual family photo. That trust is the best proof of experience. In addition, clients have reviewed us more than 140 times on Google. Also see the gallery and the experiences in the Hall of Fame.

What should you look for when choosing a photographer?

  • Look at a complete portfolio, not just a few highlighted photos.
  • Read recent reviews and look at how children are handled.
  • Ask about the total price, the number of photos and the delivery time.
  • Choose a style you will still like in twenty years.
