1) Studio lights and backgrounds are available.
2) Camera is a Nikon F90x
3) 4 people total - 2 adults & 2 teens
4) The family is from JamaicaAny help is appreciated. Michael

With groups the best way is to light things very evenly. The simplest way is to place your key light directly over or right next to the camera. A broad light source is going to be best. Slap a light on the background and you're good to go.
