Thank you for reading today’s blog about LBI childrens photographer!

In September 2016 The “S” family had me come and document their family vacation. This family was so excited for their sweet little girl to have the LBI vacation experience they adored so much. This beautiful little girl took a few minutes to warm up and was then the happiest, sweetest beach babe who was full of smiles from start to finish!

Here are 3 tips to make your photo session with children go smooth from a great website called Lasso the Moon!

1. FIND THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPHER

Ask for referrals from friends who have children. Usually word of mouth is the best way to find a family-friendly photographer. (Trust me, not all photographers are created equally.) You want someone who is fun and charming and can bring out your child’s natural smile. When reviewing their online portfolio, make sure they have a large section on kids. Check out their style to ensure it’s a proper fit. For example, I wanted a photographer who could capture playful action shots of my girls for me, but also someone good at directing more posed positions (so Grandma would be happy, too).

2. MAKE SURE BOTH YOU & THE KIDS ARE WELL FED

Have a nice, big breakfast before putting on your special outfits for the session. If needed, consider offering up mess-free snacks like Goldfish crackers for the car ride there — something they can pop into their mouth whole, without any messy drips or crumbs. There’s nothing worse than trying to get a cranky, hungry child to smile on cue. Strike that… a hungry MOM can sometimes out-whine the kids.

3. BRING A PACKAGE OF WET WIPES

Being a mom requires you to be prepared for last-minute emergencies. Bring a travel pack of wipes for messy faces, dirty hands, and last-minute oopsies. It’s all about the details, my friends!
