5 Tips for a Relaxed Photo Session

It's been encouraging to hear from so many of my clients that they value the friendly and tailored service that I endeavour to provide. I often hear that they, and especially their children, appreciate my preferred approach to taking pictures using natural light in their home (or at a favourite location) rather than the artificially lit and unfamiliar environment of a photographic studio.

Here's 5 tips for your making photo sessions even more natural and relaxed.

• Look for where it's nice and bright in your home, as natural light makes for great photos.
• Organise clothing and tidy up the night before your photo session, so you and your family are not frantically ironing or hoovering moments before your shoot!
• Avoid clothing with bright stripes, logos and very bright colours as these will distract.
• Have a change of clothing available to give variety to your photos if you'd like.
• Have favourite toys and treats on hand to keep kids happy.
