I host my Boutique Children’s Portrait every year! I absolutely LOVE them!! I look forward to them all year! They are just so special and SO much fun to be apart of. I truly love the process of when a child sits in front of my camera a little shy and nervous and within minutes transforms and pure unguarded joy shines through. It’s my favorite!
FAQ about my Boutique Children’s Portraits;
📸 Can we get a sibling picture?
YES! Of course we can!
📸 What should my child wear?
I suggest avoiding wearing neon colors, logos, or black! Black blends in with the background. Warm, earthy or neutral tones look best again the black backdrop.
📸 Is 5 minutes enough time? Even with a sibling portrait?
Yep! I know it seems quick, but the point of these sessions is to get a few really good shots. I don’t need much time to make that happen.
📸 What if my child is shy?
I have learned a few tricks over the years to help children feel safe and comfortable.
My favorite (probably the parent’s least favorite lol) is I have the parent sit down on the ground with their child on their lap facing me and then the parent leans back, it’s a good ab workout 😅.
This way the child feels safe and close and I am able to angle my camera in a way where you can’t see the parent.
📸 Is there an age limit?
Kind of, babies need to be able to sit up by themselves. There is no age out though, I have teenagers come every year!
I keep my process short and simple! I tell a few jokes, make silly faces and silly noises.
I never ask children to smile, and I ask that parents don’t either. This creates pressure and can make the child feel self conscious and not able to relax.
✨My goal is capture the essence of your child ✨
