IF YOU HAVE OTHER KIDS
-
You will have my cell number after you book online for immediate contact. Please text or call us if you need anything.
-
Relax. I know photos are stressful, I totally understand. The best thing you can do for the session is to have low expectations and to breathe. I promise things to go a lot better when we don't stress too much about it. Let your kids be them. Life will be great. It's our job to get everyone smiling, comfortable, and picture awesome.
-
If your kiddo is younger it's always a good idea to change their outfit on location. If you choose to do this be sure to get to the location early enough to start on time.
-
Bring a noisemaker (toy) if your kids are of the age that will need it. I don't bring anything with me usually since each family is so different so if your kiddo has a favorite toy put that in your bag.
-
Bring a snack & a water bottle. Sometimes a nice break with some food helps the kids do better.
-
I'm a fan of bribery however, make sure to only give it to the kiddos after the session.
