Family photos are one of my most favorite sessions to shoot for. I love being able to be apart of your happiest seasons in life. Its a chance to memorialize where you are right now. Every smile, wrinkle, drool, and good hair day that reminds you of this particular year, month, week or even day. And lets be honest give me all the chunky baby cheeks to capture. The cutest thing ever!
I love capturing photos of babies. There is something so heavenly about those sweet bundles of joys. I have had a few questions about babies and pictures and what I recommend to have the best possible experience. Here are a few tips:
-
-
-
- Schedule photos around naps if possible. A well rested baby generally is happier than a tired one.
- Feed your love right before a session. We don’t want a hangry baby for pictures. :0)
- Dress your babe for the weather. We want to make sure they are comfortable and happy when we are trying to shoot.
- I encourage parents to be themselves and PLAY with your babies. Do what you do at home to make them laugh, smile, grin, or give a cheeky smirk. You know your babe better than anyone! You know the right noises, games, toys or tickles that will show off their best selves.
- DON’T STRESS! I promises that even with a baby that isn’t on their A game for the photo shoot, we can still find some quite moments. It takes a millisecond to capture a moment that will last forever.
