Please tell me what to do because I'm panicking I hate photos and have no idea what to do with my hands!
First of all, I'm going to need you to take a breath
I've heard it all before and trust me, you do know what to do
You just need someone that removes the awkward and lets you enjoy the moment
I have a very laid back style, allowing you to move around freely while I gently guide you and snap the pure magic as it unfolds
No posing no pressure no worries
Exhale
I don't expect you to know what you're doing
It is my job to guide you and your person or family
You'd be surprised how many people feel super awkward in front of the camera. Myself included!
I want to make sure you feel comfortable the whole time so I read and respond to your cues and do my best to keep things low-pressure
Got Kiddos?
They run the show around here
The best photos come from getting on their level and being interested in whatever they're interested in. Found a stick? Cool, let's go show that lady with the camera
The little firecrackers explode when asked to do one too many things. Smile! Look at the camera! Come back here! All fast trackers to a meltdown or a big fat NO!
Child led 🤝 No pressure 🤝 Natural connection
Don't overthink it
Easier said than done
Take the photos, put them on your walls, gift them to everyone because one day those photos are all someone you love will have left
As the great Moira Rose once said believe me, one day you will look at those photos with much kinder eyes and say, dear god I was a beautiful thing!
