There is no real how-to in photography composition as a good photograph is based on a photographer's ability and eye rather than a strictly followed set of rules. The best portraits are those that highlight the family's personality and take advantage of the environment and season. There is no right or wrong in portraiture; the only judgment is whether it is a good or bad photo and it is up to the photographer's creativity to make it a good one.

Set up an indoor traditional pose. Seat the mother or if present, the grandmother either on a chair or bench. Generally, the family should surround the matriarch of the family rather than the patriarch. Position the youngest children nearest to the mother, babies and toddlers can be seated on her lap or seated on the bench or chair next to her. Any older children should frame the mother and young children. Place the father and eldest son or daughter standing behind the mother and young children.
2Create an outdoor family photo. Outdoor shots create natural and relaxed atmospheres that can be made more lively and interesting than a traditional studio setup. Positioning the family in front of a grove of trees, a moss covered fence, a pumpkin patch or a country field of tall grass adds warmth to the photo. Large families can be positioned around one seated figure (the mother) with the tallest members in the back. Shots should always be set up during the golden hours of light between noon and 5:00 pm.
3Take play shots. The best family portraits are the ones where everyone in the photo appears to be having a good time. Position the family in a pyramid with the strongest member on the bottom. Or if the portrait is being taken in the winter, have the family engage in a snowball fight. Line the family up shoulder to shoulder from tallest to shortest as well as staggered heights.
4Position the subjects at angles to the camera. The most important thing to remember in portrait photography is that head-on shots tend to distort appearance and add unwanted weight. Always angle the models so that their bodies and even their heads are not facing directly at the camera. A portrait does not imply that the eyes are blazing into the lens; family photos in which the mother is looking at the baby, siblings are looking at each other, and even when everyone is looking in an alternate direction add for artistic and flattering finishes.
5Set up a children-only shot. Shots in which only children are present are common at a family shoot, especially when there are multiple siblings. Put all of the children on the floor either seated upright in a crossed leg pose or holding one knee, on their knees or lying down. If there is a baby, the eldest child should hold him/her in their lap.
