Wardrobe: I capture simple, beautiful images with out the distraction of props and excessive accessories. Choosing the right clothing pieces can make your session exactly what you dream it will be. Photo sessions are meant to capture connection, love and create art. I recommend a lot of neutral colors and earth tones! Dresses will make you feel so beautiful in your final images, allowing movement and a playful whimsy to the end images. Places with adorable kids clothes are ZARA, H&M and of course Target! Other brands are NothingFitsBut, Beachwoodbaby, Faune, Doen.

I have a handful of beautiful adult dresses I lend out in my studio wardrobe, mention you are interested!

Session goals: Capturing the whisper of life, time and emotion, documenting this phase in life in the most beautiful way!

Note: ( sessions are NOT stessful, we have fun, play and most everyone feels at ease they say)

How we do that…

Prepare your kids by telling them we are going to have fun, if outdoors, say we’re going on an adventure to pick wild flowers or a nature walk to see birds. “Crystal is going to take pictures of us playing together, daddy will give piggy back rides!” It gets them excited for what’s to come, with older kids offer a reward for after like pizza or ice cream!

We don’t need to demand smiles from little kids instead make them have fun so their natural happiness becomes so apparent and I will capture it in the sweetest way!
