Be Prepared. The best way to ensure an easy and fun photoshoot is to plan ahead.

Take time to consider what outfits you'll wear. Then, try them on before the photo shoot to ensure everything fits. Don't do it on the same day. Believe me, I have been there and only had a couple of hours to figure out another outfit.

Leave on time or earlier so you can relax about getting there on time. Traffic can be horrible sometimes, so check how far the location is from your place.

Make It Fun! If your kids are having fun during the photoshoot, chances are they'll take better photos.

Allow kids to be themselves, and I will capture candid photos that are natural and authentic—moments frozen in time with your little ones is precisely how you want to remember them when they're not so little anymore. Letting the kids be themselves also means less stress for mom & dad during the shoot! Being in the moment with your kids and your images will be just as sweet as these.
