Kids at the photoshoot | Somerset, New Jersey

Kids at the photo session…🔥

I love taking pictures of children. They are always so direct, real, sincere.

If they laugh, then honestly, if they are angry, then this is also honest, all their emotions are real, as they are. 💗

It often happens that the child is not ready to cooperate at first. And in this situation can help, what he already knows, for example, his favorite toy.

What to take with you to a photo session to distract the child and help him adapt to the new environment?

I have several options:

#1 Favorite toy (car, doll, rattle - depends of the age)

#2 A book (you can take a new one, which the child has not seen before. But do not forget to take a book in colors matching to clothes and location colors - we have a photo session, remember?)

#3 Music (all children have favorite songs or tracks from cartoons)

#4 Snacks (it is advisable to take something that does not stain the child’s clothes, for example, cookies)

#5 Accessories (for girls haibands, bracelets, for boys, for example, bow tie, glasses)

And remember that the child needs to be praised, not forced into a pose.

And I, for my part, of course, will try to establish contact with the child and make friends. 🤝 When kids are having fun, all parents can relax and be in the process.

Finally, don’t forget that many children get tired very quickly, so the first 20 minutes is the best time for the child to do everything the way we want.
