Your story is a masterpiece, and I'm here to make it timeless.
Embrace the Chaos
Life with kiddos can feel like a three-ring circus, right?
We are going to choose to roll with it!
Some of the most magical shots happen when we let go of perfect poses and dive into the beautiful chaos of your family.
Dress for Comfort
Who says you can't be comfy and stylish?
Remember, we're not aiming for a fashion show here; we're creating a visual story of your family. So, dress to feel good, and let's capture the real you.
Imagine your kiddos munching happily on their favorite treats between shots. It's a win-win—energy levels stay up, and I capture those adorable snack-time smiles.
life is better with snacks
Snack Attack
Snacks are your secret weapon, and I'm totally on board with using bribery (oops, did I say that out loud?).
Think about it: A mini snack break can turn a potential meltdown into a moment of snack-induced zen.
No Discipline Zone
Repeat after me: "This is a no-discipline zone" Seriously, we're not looking for perfectly posed, robotic smiles. The magic happens when we let your family be authentically you. Whatever happens, happens. We will breathe and take a moment to meet your kids where they are. I am pretty good at subtle redirection and making the most out of the imperfect moments.
Picture this: Your little one doing their favorite silly dance, the older sibling giggling, and you and your partner caught up in the joy of the moment. It's all about capturing genuine connections, not robotic perfection.
c & B meternity session
orting, wa 2023
Preparation is key, my friends. Give your kiddos a heads-up about our upcoming photo adventure. Show them some of my photos, tell them it's going to be like a playdate, not a formal photoshoot.
Imagine this:
Your little one arriving at our session excited and ready to play, thanks to our little pre-session pep talk. It's all about setting the stage for a stress-free experience.
Turn the Session into a Game
Ready to turn our photo session into the coolest game in town? Let's make it fun! Ever played Simon says with your kiddos? It's like a built-in laugh machine.
This is probably my best secret weapon. Suddenly, you and your family are laughing and enjoying each other instead of at a photo session. It creates this magical atmosphere where everyone is focused on the moment and having fun, and not on the stranger with a camera.
Can you picture it?
You, me, and your kiddos playing games, dancing like no one's watching, and even having a little race. The result? Authentic, joyful moments frozen in time.
Communicate Expectations
Plan a Special Post-Session Treat
Ah, the promise of a treat—it's like the golden ticket to cooperation! Plan something special for after our session, and watch the enthusiasm levels soar.
Picture it: Your kiddos already dreaming about their favorite dessert or the playground they'll conquer after our photo adventure. It's a surefire way to end our time together on a high note.

Be Present, Not Perfect
Let's ditch the pursuit of this idea of perfection, shall we? It doesn't exist, and the beauty in the imperfect moments will be better anyways. Our focus is on genuine moments and connections, not flawless poses that evoke forced and usually awkward smiles.
Can you see it?
You, me, and your family just being yourselves, sharing laughs, and celebrating the love that makes your family unique. It's not about getting everything perfect; it's about capturing your family's beautifully imperfect story.
