How to capture those 100% Candid Images

​Let's skip the introduction and get right into the nitty gritty! 
The number one reason I believe you aren't seeing those perfect candid moments, is because you are more focused on your child functioning in front of a camera then allowing the munchkin to play and have fun! 
If your photographer isn't getting to know your munchkin before a shoot...
If your photographer isn't having fun with your munchkin during the shoot ...
If your photographer isn't fun... period.
TIME FOR AN UPGRADE!

Now, for a few more secrets...

I've been photographing these girls for YEARS, so when we get together to shoot, they are already familiar with me... They KNOW we will have fun. 

If I can encourage you to find a photographer you love, and stick with them.. not only do you have a new friend, but your children have a new friend too! Your children will be 100% more comfortable with a photographer they already know, than with a new photographer year after year. 

If you are the parent that finds the cheapest photographer on Groupon year after year, you are truly missing out!

Last Secret. 
Stop forcing your munchkin to pose. It isn't natural. It's like asking a dog to walk strictly on its hind legs.. it can happen but only for the few. You munchkins weren't created to stay still.. they are playful beings! 

As a photographer, I try and "pose" families while they are interacting with one another.
For example, I'll have the parents sit on the floor, ask the munchkins to give the parents the biggest hug I've ever seen.. which normally results in the munchkin sitting in the parents lap.. and from there I can capture priceless, 100% candid, giggles, and hugs! What parent doesn't want that documented? 

DRUM ROLL PLEASE... 
I have a secret of my own to share with my existing (and new) clients! 
I have started created sweet petite motion pictures!! (Like the one below). I have been secretly capturing sweet video clips from our most recent sessions.. and in the next few years, I will combine these video clips to make a petite movie specifically for your family. I LOVE surprising my clients and can not wait to share these with you!
