4 Tips for a Successful Family Session | Denver Family Photographer

Anyone find getting prepared for a your yearly family portrait session stressful?! No matter how many people you have to wrangle for a portrait session, it is a lot of work. We want to give you some of our professional tips for making your next family portrait session go as smoothly as possible!

1. Rested. Right after sleep is usually when children are ready to go! Mornings after they have had time to wake up and afternoons after they have had time to take a nap. Both are great times to schedule your portrait session. A rested child is a happy child!

2. Fed. After they wake up, second is food! No one likes being hangry! So make sure you have fed them so they are in a nice food coma upon arrival at your portrait session.

3. Dressed. Don’t dress your child until you are ready to go! You don’t want them to get any of that breakfast or lunch on their adorable new outfit! Plus when you arrive at your portrait session dressed, you can start right away with no fussing!

4. Intensive. On the way to your portrait session, talk about what will happen after the session if they corporate. It can be as simple as an ice cream or a lollipop…we have lollipops in our studio and always use them to our advantage! To even a fun play date or movie!

And that is it! With those four…hopefully easy steps…make sure all adults are helping each other!!! You will be ready for your family portrait session!

Epic Extended Family Sessions….Just Do it! | Travel Photographer

When was the last time your entire family was together? When was the last time you were all photographed together? I think it is time for another new year’s resolution. We can still do that right? Of course! Get on your Google Calendar and add in an extended family session and invite send out that invite. Here is why you need to do this now!

1. Time. We might like to think that our parents and grandparents will be around forever, but unfortunately that isn’t the case. And sometimes we might loose someone unexpectedly. That is why it is so important to do it NOW while you have the chance. Besides the photo memory, you will have the memory of time together creating a lasting image to add to your family history.

2. Family History. We all have one. We are living our family history now. Yesterday is history and tomorrow will soon pass. Capture your history in a photograph that can last forever. Something that can be passed down to your children and their children. Create a tradition that will span lifetimes.

3. Precious Moments. Not only will you have a physical copy of your memories, during your photo shoot and time together you will add to your memory bank. It is really tough to get so many people together in one place. Believe me I know. Our family reunions happen almost every three to five years. But when they do happen, you can bet we make time during all of our fun to make a memory that won’t only live in our heads, but something we can hang on our walls, marvel at everyday and look back on the love that we share.
