Preparing for Your Session

Mindset:

Relax and Play:

  • Approach the session with a relaxed and playful attitude.

  • Genuine interactions lead to the most heartfelt photographs.

    Well-being:

  • Ensure everyone, especially children, are well-fed and rested before the session.

  • Try to avoid planning any busy activities on the same day as your photoshoot, such as a long walk or sports.

  • Bringing along favourite snacks can be helpful.

  • If you have young children, tell them a friend is coming to take photos of your family with a camera.

  • You can also show them a photo of me ahead of time so they know what I look like.

‍ ‍Attire Recommendations:

Comfort is Key

  • Wear outfits that make you feel comfortable and represent your true self.

Color Palette

  • Please opt for earthy tones to achieve a timeless and natural look.

    Avoid Distracting Elements

  • Steer clear of fluorescent colors and clothing with text or logos, unless they hold personal significance.

    What to Expect:

    During our session, I'll provide gentle guidance to capture natural interactions. The goal is to document your family's unique story authentically and enjoyably. We may walk a little, explore the trails, and find beautiful pockets of light along the way.

    Embracing Real Moments

  • Kids are welcome to play, explore, cuddle, and be themselves. Some of the most meaningful photographs happen in those unscripted moments.

    Additional Tips:

    Props

  • Feel free to bring along meaningful items.

  • A picnic blanket can be wonderful, we may sit together on the ground while you cuddle with your little ones.

    Weather Considerations

  • Sessions are typically held outdoors; in case of inclement weather, we'll discuss rescheduling options.

    Arrival Time

  • Please plan to arrive a few minutes early so everyone has time to settle in. We’ll begin right on time to make the most of the light.

    Think of the session as a relaxed family walk where I quietly document the connection between you.
