Snack and Nap
It might seem like an obvious thing but making sure your little ones have snacked and slept beforehand will help with any crankiness. Sessions with kiddos are controlled by the kiddos! Once they're done they're done and we'd rather that be towards the end of your allotted time! They have more fun when they're rested and full anyway!

Be prepared for silliness
When I photograph families I don't pose, I prompt! I strive to capture the most unique versions of you. And that includes prompting tickles and running and tossing into the air! Which always gives lots of laughter and smiles. My style is integrated with your uniqueness, so stiff, structured posing isn't what I do. I want to capture all the love and goofiness your family has! So that means not always looking at the camera and getting photos back filled with lots of emotion!

Dress comfortable
Dressing nice but comfortable is a must! You want to feel like the best version of yourself but also be able to move around with your little ones. Matching your outfits in unison as well so you look cohesive together makes for the best photos! Be sure to check out my blog post on choosing an outfit for your session to get the best info on what to wear.

Have Fun!
The most important thing is that you have fun and enjoy this time together as a family! You only get these moments once with your babies so soaking up this time and enjoying yourself is so vital! I do everything I can to help you have a session full of belly laughs and smiles, because there's nothing more beautiful than genuine love and emotion!
