Styling your Family portraits
Your session is booked...now what?! How on earth do you put together outfits worthy of hanging on your wall? Take a deep breath, it's easier than you think!
Start with yourself. If you're anything like me, you're picky, know what looks good on you best, and will have the hardest time dressing yourself. So start with yourself. Choose the biggest items first, like a top or a dress, and move on from there. Once you have your base outfit chosen, move on to the next Parent. Choose something that coordinates with your outfit, but nothing super matchey. From there, head to your kiddos. With so many options out there for children, choosing outfits to round out the family will be a breeze. Once everyone's base outfits are chosen, move on to layers, accessories, and footwear.
A note on footwear: typically during a family session, we're moving, walking, crouching and sitting. You'll be walking on uneven ground, through tall grasses, and over rocks so I highly suggest choosing stable footwear. No spiky heels or platform boots are needed for these family sessions!
If you need any help at all choosing your outfits, I'm always happy to give my opinion. Just reach out via email or social media!
Me: ‘want a sneak peek?!’ Also me: ‘here’s your entire gallery instead’. 🤦♀️ with this GORGEOUS weather we’ve been having, it’s not too late to book a family session! #familyphotographer
The Goodest Boy helped me figure out my new smoke machine tonight, and I don’t want to brag, but I already have orders for wall art…from my kids 🤣 #itcounts #modeldog #paidintreats #whosagoodboy #sarniaphotographer

I’ll just…leave these here. Because I have spent half the day trying to come up with the perfect sentiment to go with these photos, and I just don’t think one exists.
It`s been 84 years since I last posted anything on Social Media...
Just kidding, it`s only been forever. Some of you may know that I accidentally fell into the world of Sports Photography last year. Since then, I`ve been busy photographing all the sports, and I`ve had no time for my usual Newborns and Families. And my gosh have I MISSED this!
Thank you to one of the best families I know for coming along for a short notice session. ❤
Name in Lights Mini sessions scheduled for tomorrow, March 15th are being rescheduled due to a slight camera hand injury. For those who have already booked, you’ll receive an email over the get couple of days with my full calendar to choose a new date and time. I apologize so much for any inconvenience this will cause!
