Session tips:
*my most important advice for every session is not to stress!:) We want to make the session fun and relaxing, capturing happy moments. If mom or dad stresses, the whole family will sense it. Don’t worry, we will get some great shots! Take a deep breath and just go with the flow. Relax and have fun!
*make sure you've scheduled your appointment when your child is happy. Have a meal or large snack before the session, hungry kids = not happy kids. Happier kids and happier moms allow for better pictures! And bring a few snacks they like just in case! Try to make sure the snacks aren’t messy – try pretzels, sliced apples in a baggie, fruit snacks. If your kids are motivated by any type of reward like candy or gum, bring it on! A little motivation can go a long way!
*props are fun – not always needed but if there are some you are particularly attached to, we can try to incorporate them and use them in a few pictures. Also, if you have a fun chair at home or a really pretty quilt. bring it! I'm always up for something new, especially if they are meaningful to your family.
*please make sure your child or baby has a clean face – no boogers, eye crusties, food smeared on face or clothing. Makes a big difference to see the face and not the PB&J sandwich we had for lunch.
*Feel free to bring 2 or 3 easy to change outfits that you love for your children.
