Father Photography Family Funny a Mess
To first understand our Father's Day photography we need to define the word FATHER: Husband, brother, uncle, superhero, king, spider catcher, protector, saviour, taxi driver, doctor, teacher, entertainer, best friend, coach, mentor, comedian, soldier, provider, legend…
…a man who brings light to our lives.
Father's Day is a day for children all over the world to show honour to their fathers. This time in June is a perfect opportunity to capture that spectacular photograph that your Dad will cherish for the rest of his life.
Do you want to show the main man in your life what a truly special father he is…We have the perfect ideas for you to try with your camera!
Photographing any type of subject requires a CONNECTION which gives your image MEANING.
This is what keeps your image alive, and keeps the viewer's attention, so it's pretty vital you master and understand this before taking your shots.
It may be that taking candid shots, posed or even a time lapse can help you truly capture that perfect moment; rather than simply sitting the family down and forcing them to shout 'CHEEEEESEEEEEEE' .
So before you run and grab for the camera, let's just take some time to prepare and think about what outcome you want to achieve?
5 Important Questions About Dad
Start by answering these questions about your superhero Dad…
• What are your favourite memories with your Father?
• What activities does he enjoy?
• Does he have a particular style or look that is significant to his personality?
• Is there anything unusual that can demonstrate your connection, such as a particularly special item or object?
• What activities/hobbies do you share with him?
Now here's where Fathers Day photographs differ to the soft, feminine ones we focused on Mother's Day. This doesn't mean your shots can't be filled with as much love and care, you may just have to take a slightly different approach. Father's Day images will appear more bold, strong and masculine, just like our fathers.
Of course you can still bring out his soft side and show his inner princess,we just don't think Dad will enjoy putting rollers in his hair and painting his nails.
Of course, Dad is very proud of his whole family, so make sure you take some pictures that include any other visiting family members with the children as well. Take a photo with Dad as the star of the show, with his family and support system surrounding the main man in the centre. These images can take a little more planning as they will feature more people, but a group photo of the whole family can be a moment to cherish for a long time.

Being in the middle of summertime, Father's Day is the perfect occasion for a family get together in the sun (unless you live in the UK). Dad is often a man who loves to get involved with the whole day from the beginning as the chief organiser, head chef and conquering pioneer.
Let's take a look at these typical 'Father's Day' shots and approach from a different angle.

Is Dad the chef of the family? Capture him making pancakes or decorating cakes in the kitchen with the kids.
If it's great weather where you are then maybe a family BBQ would be perfect to get some shots of the children helping Dad flip those burgers?!
Place lipstick kiss prints all over Dad's face and place him in the middle of the frame with a child on each side kissing each of his cheeks.
Catch Dad and the kids in the act by capturing silly moments as they play around in the garden or local parks.
If you are lucky enough to own a GoPro then this is the perfect camera for capturing these action shots.
Capture that father and son bond with a shot of some fist bumping action, capturing the side view of the fists and wrists only in the image.
If you want to capture some father son moments why not get the shaving foam out and get Dad to show 'how to'. (WARNING: this could get messy)
After a long day of excitement try taking a photo of Dad reading a favourite bedtime story to the child or colouring a picture together while relaxing on the family room floor.
