Here are a few suggestions to help make your child’s session more successful…

If your child is even remotely not feeling well, reschedule the session. When kids don’t feel well it leads to grumpiness and they are far less inclined to smile or be themselves.

Do not schedule your session the day of or after doctor’s appointments. Shots can have lingering effects that can affect your child’s mood.

A fed, rested child is a happy child. Avoid scheduling around nap times and stick to your normal napping schedule the day of your portrait. Have your child eat a meal/snack before their appointment; however, avoid mood altering foods like sugars and caffeine.

Resist the urge to tell your child they ‘have to smile.’ For some reason it always seems to backfire into no smiles at all or into fake smiles. We’ll get them having fun in no time.

Remember I want your child to have a fun experience! Sometimes that means I have to just work off the cuff and follow their lead so relax knowing you and your child are in good hands!

I offer four Signature Sessions and a Mini-Session. The Lifestyle, Environmental, Relationship and Fresh line are all Signature Sessions.

All Signature Sessions come with a complimentary Clothing and Design Consultation to help ensure a successful session. Signature Sessions can take anywhere from .5 to 1.5 hours depending upon your children’s stamina and I am trying to create.

The Mini-Session is exactly how it sounds. The Mini-Session was created for one subject and is perfect for documenting milestones like birthdays, special events or just for the fun of it. For the Mini-Session your child must arrived dressed, the session lasts no longer than 30 minutes.
