Ever since I’ve moved to Flatonia I’ve always found myself dreaming to do photos at the little park in town. I often found myself going to this park to get out the house whether that’s to walk my dog, journal out my thoughts, or have a picnic with my boyfriend. This park is just a great versatile location for photos & I just love it especially during the Fall months!
This season has brought more families my way within the small town & I have enjoyed everyone that has worked with me during my time here! When Tori reached out to me & booked their fall family session, I knew exactly where I wanted to go that I have been hoping to go to! Plus, Demi Jo is the cutest girl & brought all the smiles & some sass to their family session.
Family Photo Tip: When doing family photos I highly suggest bringing a toy, sweet treat, or doing something rewarding afterwards, so the kiddos have something to look forward to after, so they smile pretty for photos.
I always try my best to mix it up during family sessions, so we’re able to get multiple backgrounds & poses in, before the attention span of the small kiddos gets lost. Plus, this is so y’all have more than enough to choose from within your full gallery of photos!
If you’re curious how I go about family sessions this is typically my routine! I always start out with the everyone in the family, this is where we will do a few different formal poses. It’s a must to get individuals of each kiddo & with each parent. Then, once were half way done with our session, I let the kids have a break! They can run around while I focus on just Mom & Dad! Finally, to end the session I get the family back together one last time & do more candid poses with y’all moving around, this allows the kids to feel a bit more comftable doing simple things like; walking, running around mom & dad, & just interacting as a family! And before you know it we’re done with our session & the rest is history & memories captured.
