3 Tips on getting the perfect photos before your session even starts

Want to know how to get the most out of your photo session? Here’s 3 tips that I’ve learned over the years that will help you get the best experience possible!

Tip #1 Eat BEFORE you come!! Most families and couples plan on going to dinner, or eating after their session, which is not ideal when it comes to getting your picture taken! Coming with full stomach will make everyone happier, not just the kids! Do you ever get hangry? You better believe I do! If you want your family happy for pictures, feed them before, easy as that! Then you can go get ice cream or a treat as a reward after pictures are done!

Tip #2 Don’t get your kids dressed until you get to the location! I don’t know about you, but my kids always seem to get messy in the car. Coming early and getting your kids dressed when you get there will avoid getting their clothes wrinkly, dirty, spit up on, or even slobbery. That way you don’t have to come up with a last minute clothing option when your baby decides to have a blow out in the car.

Tip #3 Hire a hair and makeup artist! Most people think this is a no brainer when it comes to wedding and bridals, but what about other photoshoots? Most of the time we are our own worst critics. I know when I don’t love photos of me, it’s because I hate my makeup, or my hair didn’t turn out how I envisioned. Hiring someone to do this for you will be a huge confidence builder for you! Not to mention you won’t have to worry about getting yourself ready while you get the rest of your family ready too!
