I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but...
....The truth is fall is just around the corner. And yes my friend, that means it’s time to start thinking about your holiday photos. I know that I sound like a crazy person talking about holiday photos on August 1st, but as you know, August, September and October are usually our best months, weather wise. So lets take advantage of the pretty light while we have it! And, by booking your fall session now, you’ll be able sit back and relax knowing that you’re one step ahead of the holiday rush!
Here are a few tips on how to make this years portrait session, the best ever!!
- Schedule early. Everyone wants those prime weekend spots. But remember, there are only four 10:00 am Saturday morning appointments on my calendar every month. If a morning appointment is going to work best for your little ones, then get it on the books now!
- Think outside the nap box. If you need to work around naps when planning your photo session, think about booking something in the late afternoon, or early evening. That "Golden Hour" is absolutely stunning in the fall, and you'll get beautiful, dreamy photos out of it.
- Pick a family friendly location. Parents often want to meet at a playground or favorite park for their photo session. But, sadly, choosing a beloved playground or park usually results in a very unhappy kids. Most toddlers would much rather play at their favorite spot than get their picture taken. Instead, ask me for a suggestions. I know a ton of great spots around Seattle, and then stop off at the park on the way home. That way everybody wins!
have a great day, and I look forward to seeing you soon!
