Hello there! If you're feeling a bit overwhelmed with thoughts about your upcoming family session, relax – I've got you covered! Family sessions should be enjoyable and stress-free, and I'm here to make that happen. Here's a glimpse into what you can expect:

About the Sessions:

• My family sessions are prompt-led, focusing on capturing genuine moments rather than traditional poses and forced smiles.

• Kids tend to leave with smiles on their faces, as the emphasis is on creating a fun and interactive experience for the whole family.

• While I do aim for a perfect posed family photo, the session will also include many candid, laughing, and playful moments that truly reflect your family's uniqueness.

Building Trust with Kids:

• If your child arrives feeling uneasy, it's entirely normal. I make it a priority to spend the first five minutes interacting with them in a way that builds trust and assures them that the session will be enjoyable.

• Being only five feet tall, I'm pretty un-intimidating with the little ones.

What to Bring:

• Ensure everyone is well-fed and rested before the session.

• Bring water and a non-messy snack like marshmallows or cheerios, just in case a little snack is needed.

Best Locations and What to Wear:

• After booking, I'll provide you with a location list with information about each spot.

• Dress up a bit for the session – button-downs or collared shirts for men, well-done hair and a little makeup for women. For kids, avoid bright patterns and writing on shirts.

Child Behavior:

• My sessions are designed to be fun and fast-moving, with posed pictures done first and the rest of the session dedicated to candid shots. 

Including Pets:

• Pets are welcome but can sometimes slow things down. Consider bringing a friend or family member to help manage your pet's involvement in the session.

Delivery:

• Expect your edited images conveniently delivered via digital download within two weeks of our session date.

• A print release is included to print your images for personal use. Alternatively, you can choose to order high-quality prints directly through me.

Payment:

• Retainers are paid online with a credit card, while the remaining session fee can be paid on the day of the session via invoice or cash.

If you have any more questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. I'm looking forward to capturing beautiful moments with your family!
