Infants, Toddlers, and Children
I'm a mom...I know how things go. Don't worry.
Feel free to bring snacks and favorite toys to help sooth little ones. If a break or diaper change is needed, we will take the time.

As a general rule, I ask parents to act as a bystander as I work. If I reach a point where I need mom and dad's help, I will let you know.
Please don't ask your little one to smile or say "cheese." Unless, of course, you want that cheesy little smile.
We will walk. We will play. We will try to infuse a few posed shots here and there. We have plenty of time. Don't feel frustrated if you think your child isn't "behaving." Trust the process. We will get some amazing shots.
Families
Families
My advice for families is almost the same as for toddlers and children. *smile*
I pride myself in making everyone feel comfortable. I will coach you from where and how to stand, to the look I'm going for in the shot. No need to worry.
Relax. Play. Show affection to your family.

General Advice for all Sessions
Stress should take place before the session. Choosing a photographer, location, wardrobe, etc. is the hard part. Once you arrive, the fun starts!
Make sure everyone is well rested and fed. Not everyone has to be looking at the camera and smiling for every shot. I'll be shooting continuously so don't be frustrated if you or your kids "weren't looking."
Is there something you love that you want to capture in your photos? Bring it along! This could be anything from matching jerseys, a favorite book or toy, or the family pet. Let's create something you will cherish in the years to come!
