The one where the kids don’t have to behave

Booking a family photoshoot can come with it’s own set of jitters: ‘What will we wear?’, ‘Do I look okay?’, ‘I hope we get there on time’. You don’t want to be worrying about how your kids are showing up on top of that! That’s why we will take care of that for you.

Toddlers, kids and teenagers all bring their own special personalities and energy to a room. Maybe they’re excited and can’t stop moving. Maybe they’re shy and nervous. Or perhaps you’re worried about your teenager being ‘too cool’ for the photoshoot.

We have worked with so many little ones and not so little ones throughout the years that we know how to adapt and go with the flow. We wear many hats and will wear whatever hat we need to for the photoshoot: the bluey hat, the animal noises hat, the gentle energy to win over your wary 4 year old and the banterous energy to work with your teenager who is too cool for school.

So please don’t worry about your kids that can’t stay still, capturing happy movement is fun for us! It often makes for a really vibrant series of photos. That way, all you need to focus on is the experience and trust that the rest is taken care of.
