What to Expect

what to bring to your session 

Please bring clothing and all accessories needed. You can arrive and get 

your children dressed at the session if you are worried about them getting 

messy on the way. Please also bring chap-stick or lip gloss for children 

(helps with chapped lips, they are very hard to Photoshop).  To be extra 

prepared, bring snacks & a favorite toy to comfort them if they are feeling 

overwhelmed at the session.

during the session 

Children are UNPREDICTABLE... so, it is my job to be ready for anything!  

A lot of times parents get frustrated because sessions don’t seem to be 

going perfectly, but those small moments in between all the tantrums 

and chaos are beautiful. People are often surprised to see that there are 

so many great pictures to choose from, when all they remember is their 

wild child.  Don’t worry, I shoot like crazy and it’s my job to capture it all!  

The only job I give parents is to relax & enjoy it! I will do all of the hard work! 

I will give a lot of direction during the session so you will know exactly what 

to do. Children match your energy, so if you are having fun and showing them 

how much you love them, they will show you the same in return. 

Once in a while there are children that for whatever reason, do not want to be 

photographed. I might ask to photograph your child or children away 

from the parents so they will just focus on me and my lame jokes. It usually 

works! They don’t know me and usually children are on their best behavior 

for others! This is one way we can work together to make your session 

run smoothly.
