FAQ

The number one, most frequent fear that parents tell me is that they are afraid their child/children won’t behave.  You know, I actually enjoy a wee bit of spirit in a session.  🙂  It always means good photos. We make a game of it.  

And, I’ve learned that a little bit of indulgence in a session goes a long, long way.  So we might let the little ones do something that they might not otherwise get to do.  Give a little to get a little. 

No worries if your child is shy.  I take my time.  Sometimes we just sit and play for 10-15 minutes first without even picking up the camera.  I get it.  I was really shy when I was a kid.  I don’t ever book back to back sessions – so we can just take our time and go at your child’s pace. 

The answer is ABSOLUTELY!  Please, please, please call to reschedule your shoot. 

Some people say that they don’t want to be a pain. 

Believe me, it’s a lot more trouble if/when I get the bug and then have to reschedule other’s shoots.  It’s not fair to anyone. 

I will happily and gratefully accommodate you in rescheduling. 

Plus, do you know how hard it is to get a child to smile when they don’t feel good?  🙂

I allow an hour for a photo session, but if there’s multiple kids, it could take a wee bit longer.  I do a variety of photos individually, along with several of the kids together.

Age 4/5 is a fantastic age – old enough to talk to, young enough to fall for the ridiculous stories I make up.  That said, any age from baby to to approximately eight works fine.  But, it depends on the child.  As kids get older, some are less keen for the fantasy, but others are still mad keen. 

Absolutely!  I have a few dresses in mummy sizes.  Kids love it!
