Want to know a secret tip for getting perfect family photos?
Keep things positive and fun for your kids! I know, you’re a little anxious about how it’s going to go, it’s past their bedtime, and you just want them to behave and smile… but kids can sense when you are stressed and start to act out more… thus working against everything we are trying to accomplish in capturing happy memories together.
If you keep the family vibe positive and use distraction as a tool instead of threats or commands, your little ones will stay much happier and we will have good feelings, smiles, and positive memories of your time together which equals good photos!!
It seems simple enough, but because many parents put pressure on themselves and their kids to get the “perfect” photos, stress levels go up and positivity vibes go down! By focusing on staying positive, connecting with your kids, and having fun together, you’re more likely to get the result that you hope for.
The Schopp family below were amazing for their family session a few weeks ago. As you can see from their photos, this family has ALL the positive vibes! Katie and AJ were awesome at finding ways to engage with their 3 and 4 year old sons and to keep the mood light and fun. And as a result, their photos truly capture the love and connection in their family!
