Family sessions are probably my most favorite thing to photograph. I also know that family pictures are a cause for stress for family families. There is so much information that you can find online about how to have the best family photos. There are examples of what to wear, accessories to add, locations to choose, how to smile etc. I want to assure you that the Simply Shelby team and I are aware of those stresses and strive to make family photos as easy and stress free as possible. So here are a few easy tips to make your family sessions are breeze to plan:

- Choose a color pallet around one specific outfit and then work everyone else around it. I recommend moms dress.
- Choose a color pallet that is neutral or leans towards earth tones
- Use layers and texture in your outfit choices and don’t have everyone wearing the exact same thing
- Bring easy and mess-less snacks for your younger kiddos to keep them happy
- Plan a good nap for the littles right before a session if possible so they are all well rested and ready to go
- Bring a happy attitude and your kiddos and hubby will feed off of your energy

Family pictures don’t have to be perfect, even though I know you want them to be. We are able to work with everyone and anything that might happen at a session. With all my years of experience and tricks I have up my sleeve I know that we will get some amazing shots. The best part, I teach my associates everything I know. So no matter who you have family pictures scheduled with you are in amazing hands. This beautiful family session was photographed by my sweet associate Danielle. Beautiful work!!
