Plan Your Outfits

Get a good night's sleep and eat a light, healthy meal before your photo session. This will help you feel your best and look refreshed. It's also a great idea to start hydrating a few days in advance it really helps everyone look their best in the photos.

Set an Intention

Think about what this photo shoot means to you. Is a child celebrating a milestone? Are you welcoming a new baby? Are we celebrating the firs year of school?

Having this intention in mind will set a positive tone for the session and can help us refocus if the kids need a little guidance to be in the moment.

When you arrive, everything will be taken care of. Your only job is to relax, be present, and have fun with your family!


There's no right or wrong way to be during the session. I'll be there to guide you every step of the way, so you can feel 100% comfortable just being yourself.
