A window measured in days
For families spread across cities or countries, the question is never whether to have a portrait taken. It is whether it happens before the visit ends.
It almost always does not. The days fill with everything else, the session stays on the list, and people fly home having never been photographed together — which is the single most common regret we hear and the one most easily prevented.
The fix is to book it for early in the visit, not for a convenient point during it. Day two of a four-day trip is a session that happens; "sometime before they leave" is one that does not. That is worth being slightly pushy about with your own family.
Keep it short as well. Forty minutes with everyone present beats a leisurely session half the family opts out of because it is competing with the only afternoon they have.

A short visit also means the session cannot absorb a false start. Everyone arriving forty minutes late eats most of a forty-minute booking.
So it is worth agreeing the meeting time a day early and making it slightly earlier than needed.
That single piece of admin is the difference between a session that happens comfortably and one that happens in a rush.
Getting ready
Book for the first weekend of the visit, not a convenient point during it. The flight does not move and the session will lose to everything else.
Agree clothes as a group beforehand rather than on the morning.
Plan for older relatives to be photographed early — jet lag and a long journey are real.
Planning it
When they arrive and when they leave, which is the only real constraint.
How many people and how old the oldest are.
And whether the session is at home or the studio.

How the session itself works is covered in full on the main family photography page.
Early in the visit, not at a convenient point during it. Sessions left until the end are the ones that quietly do not happen.
Less than people expect, and we keep it short deliberately. Forty minutes with everyone there beats a long session half the family skips.
Yes, and for a short visit with older relatives it is usually the better answer. We work with the rooms and light you have.
Lohegaon, Dhanori, Vishrantwadi, Tingre Nagar, Viman Nagar, Wadgaon Sheri and Kalyani Nagar, and we photograph across Pune.
Lohegaon, Dhanori, Vishrantwadi, Tingre Nagar, Viman Nagar, Wadgaon Sheri and Kalyani Nagar.
Tell us the number and we will plan for it.
Yes, and tell us in advance.
Say so at booking. Seated arrangements happen first.
Send us the date and what you have in mind, and you get a clear quote for the coverage you actually need.
Confirmed in writing at booking rather than left open, which matters more when the date could not move.
Tell us at booking if it matters and we will prioritise a small set.
Yes, with travel agreed upfront before anything is booked.
Yes, and on a fixed date we would encourage it. A short conversation beforehand is what makes an immovable booking work.
We will tell you immediately rather than holding a tentative slot, so you have time to find an alternative.
Regularly. Ask rather than assuming it is too late — we would rather tell you honestly what is open.
The plan yes, the date rarely. Tell us what has changed and we will adapt the coverage around it.
Then photograph the family that is there. A date tied to somebody's travel does not move, and a photograph of most of you exists where a perfect one does not.
Send us their dates and we will find a slot early in the visit, while it can still happen.
