What to bring?
Bring what you would normally bring when going out for the day. Also handy to bring comforters and changes of clothes for your little ones and different outfits for you too.
Any props you don't mind in the photos such as teddies/blankets as little ones love holding something.
How long will my photos take?
For a mini session they will take up to 1 week.
For a full session in studio or on location they will take between 7-14 days
What happens if my child is ill?
If your child is poorly please get in touch and I will happily reschedule.
What happens if its raining?
I will happily re-schedule an outdoor session. If the weather doesn't look great I will e-mail you a few days in advance to postpone.
What should I wear?
Spring & summer outdoors- soft, muted colours in neutrals or pastels look lovely. Such as denims, blues, creams, pinks. Avoid stripes/patterns as these will draw too much attention to the eye. Layers are lovely too like scarfs, knits and floaty dresses.
Autumn & winter outdoors- chunky knits in berry, jewel tones and mustard look great!
In the studio, similar applies but as long as you have 3 colours that work together between you all and no bold stripes or patterns.
Birthday Photo Session will be different depending on the theme you are going for. For an example, fun bold colours or your favourite outfits in casual or smart.
I will send out an email to help with what to wear at your particular session when you book.
