When you're discussing your photo session with your family or group, here's some things to keep in mind:
  • When you first tell them about your family picture plans- act excited like it’s going to be SO much fun! Often attitude is contagious.
  • Involve the kids in the process from the beginning! If they get to help pick what they’re going to wear and what props they can bring, they’ll feel included and be more likely to cooperate.
  • Allow plenty of time! It’s hard to be patient and positive when you’re rushed.
  • Bring along an “entertainer” to sand behind or beside the photographer to get the baby or little ones to look and smile.
  • Plan the shoot for when your kids are the happiest, not just the time that is the most convenient. Work your appointment around the kids’ routines.
  • Give the kids breaks in between shots to stretch, run, and play.
  • Even better- let them play during the pictures! You’ll get great candid shots and capture your little ones the way they really are.
  • Play peek-a-boo, tickle, and throw the baby into the air for real, genuine smiles.
  • Bring water and snacks to avoid mid-shoot meltdowns.
  • Promise them a reward when the shoot is over. I’m so not above bribing.
  • Use a code word (like “ice cream”) to remind them of the reward throughout the shoot.
I am here to help you make this the BEST photo shoot EVER! Please let me know if you have ANY questions!!
