Top 10 Props to Elevate Your Family Photoshoot


Are you gearing up for a memorable family photoshoot with One Circle, One Color? If so, you're in for a delightful experience capturing the essence of your family. While the skill of your photographer plays a vital role, the right props can add a layer of charm, emotion, and individuality to your portraits. To ensure your photos are truly one of a kind, we've compiled a list of the top 10 props to consider for your upcoming session:




1. A Cozy Chair: Bring a comfortable and stylish chair that complements your family's wardrobe and the shoot's theme. A well-placed chair can create a relaxed and inviting atmosphere.


2. Bubbles: Incorporate bubbles for a fun and whimsical element in your family photos. Blowing bubbles can lead to spontaneous, joyous moments captured in your photos.


3. Bouquet of Flowers or Plants: A bouquet of fresh flowers or a potted plant can provide a natural and organic element to your photos. The colors and scents of flowers can enhance the mood of your shoot.


4. Signs: Signs are a fantastic way to convey messages or showcase your family's personality. Whether it's a chalkboard with a loving message, a letter board with a funny quote, or a collection of Scrabble tiles spelling out your family name, signs are a wonderful touch.


5. Blankets and Throws: Cozy blankets or throws can be draped over chairs, used for picnics, or wrapped around family members. They not only keep everyone comfortable but also add texture and warmth to the photos.


6. Toys and Props for Kids: If you have young children, consider bringing their favorite toys or props to capture candid and natural expressions. These items can make the session more enjoyable for the little ones.


7. DIY Craft Supplies: Alongside bubbles, provide DIY craft supplies for your family to get creative during the photoshoot. Let their artistic sides shine as they craft together.


8. Musical Instruments: If your family has a passion for music, consider including musical instruments like a guitar, piano, or even a set of drums. Music can evoke emotions and provide a unique backdrop for your photoshoot.


9. Seasonal Props: Tailor your props to the season. In the fall, think pumpkins and blankets. In the winter, cozy scarves and hats. Adapting to the season can enhance the atmosphere of your photos.


10. Family Keepsakes: Gather and display family keepsakes, such as old family photographs, heirloom jewelry, or meaningful objects. This can add a personal and sentimental touch to your family photoshoot.


Before you select your props, it's essential to communicate with your photographer. Discuss your vision, the theme of your shoot, and any personal touches you'd like to add. When planning your photoshoot with One Circle, One Color, remember that your photos are a reflection of your love, connection, and joy as a family. The right props can bring your vision to life and create images that you'll treasure for years to come.
