Tips for Mommies on Having their Children's Portrait Created
Smiling naturally on command is difficult, if not impossible, and a child told to smile often produces a big
toothy grimace (not the most attractive expression) or another silly face. Telling a child to smile, or
rehearsing how to smile in advance and then telling the child to do what they practiced at home rarely
works well (it doesn't work well with grownups either). Relaxed, natural expressions photograph the
best. If parents are relaxed and not pressuring the child, we can get those radiant smiles.
If your portrait goal is a single special wall portrait, to be displayed for many years, please call the studio
with the clothing you you have chosen for the session. We'll discuss how you're planning to display the
portrait and select the props and sets to be used in the session.
The quality of your portraits is greatly enhanced when the children are photographed in a relaxing,
nonstressful atmosphere. Children often pick up nervous energy from their parents; when you are
worried about getting "good pictures" your child will worry with you and it will show in the finished
images.
One hour is normally more then adequate for a well-planned standard session. I create between 8 and
12 images in a single standard session , which permits one child to be photographed in two different
outfits, or two children to be photographed separately and together in one outfit. Three or more
children being photographed separately and together will require a wee bit more time.
