What to Expect
I will offer direction and guidance, but my main goal is to capture the moment by moment interactions of your family. In my opinion, the best photos aren't always the ones where everyone is sitting straight up and looking right at the camera. Often times, it's those in-between shots when you forget I'm there that we capture the most beautiful and memorable moments.
PREPARING KIDS FOR PHOTOS
When we arrive at our session location, we will take a few moments to get acquainted. This is especially important with kids. I want them to feel very comfortable with me, so we'll take a moment to get to know each other. You can help them get excited about our time together by talking to them beforehand about what they'll be doing. If they come in with the idea that they are going to have fun, chances are they'll be in a good mood and eager to participate.
If you have a baby ages 3-24 months, it's very important that we schedule our session around their nap and meal times. Babies are generally happiest after they've had some rest and something to eat. So it's vital that we begin our session within the hour they've woken up from their nap. And feel free to bring snacks with you. I always allow for a little break during the session to give everyone a chance to refuel :-)
PRE-SESSION INFO
Please complete the Pre Session Questionnaire to help me get to know a little more about you and what you're hoping to capture during our time together! We will be utilizing natural light during our session, so it's best to schedule
our session within 2 hours of sunrise or sunset.
In our pre-session phone consultation, we will discuss wardrobe, location,
and props. Certain occasions call for a touch of creative flare and an extra element of fun to help those charming, natural smiles shine through.
