P L A N N I N G your session...
During the session you can expect a relaxed and fun atmosphere. I want you to feel at ease and enjoy yourself during our time together. I like to get to know my clients and capture their true personalities. With families and children you can expect both posed shots and candids.
Please expect to take breaks if newborns and small children are involved. Newborns often need breaks to feed, be changed or just have some cuddles. Toddlers sometimes have meltdowns and don’t want to cooperate. That is ok, this is expected with children of this age and this is the norm with sessions with small children.
With small children it is a good idea to bring their favourite snack and/or toy(s). Sometimes the best shots are of your child being natural and playing with mum, dad or siblings. They are also handy if your toddler need a break to play.
With newborns you might want to have a change of clothing as it is almost impossible to avoid accidents, with naked babies So, don’t worry, this is expected and I will have several blankets on hand for newborn sessions to swap in/out. Make sure to bring the wet wipes and nappies!
NEWBORN
-Nude is best for baby, small blankets will be used at times to cover nappies and keep baby nice and warm
- For mum, a simple black or white tank top, short-sleeved shirt or boob-tube top is perfect. Simple is best, avoid patterns.
- For dad, a black or white t-shirt. For those dads that are comfortable bearing their chest please do because these can make for some of the most precious images with father and child.
ONE YEAR & CAKE SMASH
I supply a range of outfits, from tutus to bow ties. I have accessories, such as headbands, jewellery and hats.
Please feel free to bring nappy covers or trousers as we can mix and match and decide before we begin what little one will wear.
Bring towels and wipes ( you can never have too many) as you may get very messy yourself, you might want to bring a change of clothes.
Decorations, such as balloons and bunting are provided but if you would like a specific theme then feel free to bring along your own and let me know in advance.
FAMILIES & CHILDREN
-Avoid clothing with logos and busy patterns that will distract
-Matching or similar colours and outfits that compliment each other
-Colour! Splashes of colour really make your photos pop!
If you have fun props or items with special meaning you’d like included, please feel free to bring them.
MATERNITY
Denim jeans (maternity and an old pair that you can button down or unzip for photos)
Basic tank tops that really show off your bump
White button down blouse
