How To Nail Your Next Family Photography Session!

When was the last time you had a professional family portrait taken?

If you are ready for a successful family picture here are my top 7 tips!

1. Get outfits planned ahead of time! If you’re not sure what colours or theme to go with - I can always help with that! Staying within the same colour palette, embracing textures and stay away from wearing a variety of prints!

2. Schedule your shoot with time to get ready! The last thing you want is to feel rushed because it will make for an uneasy start to a fun activity!

3. No “Cheese” Please! We always have the best intentions yelling “Say Cheese” but it really won’t turn out like we imagine it. I encourage laughing to bring out natural smiles! Crack your best jokes, bust out your dance moves or whatever might be needed!

4. Have Fun!! Always!

5. It’s a time to create memories together! Photoshoots are fun and a great way to capture moments that will last a lifetime! Chose an activity to do together during the session or even pick a picturesque
location with a great view!

6. Make sure everyone is well rested! Don’t book your shoot during nap time - from experience with my own toddler this NEVER works. Everyone should make sure to have a good nights rest before your shoot!

7. Arrive with full bellies! No one wants to be hangry during the shoot or have their patience tested! If snacks are required mid shoot that’s ok! 😊
