Preparing for your maternity session
What to bring
-Change of clothes
-Leggings for underneath dresses and easy off shoes
-Favorite toy and/or lovey for your little if there is one or two
-Make sure everyone has a full belly:). No one wants to be hangry. Mom included!
-Hair brush or comb-hairt-tie in case it’s super windy and we want to throw it up
-Diapers and wipes for babies
Preparing dads
-Moms I’m talking to you. Is your hubby or significant other not thrilled about photos? A little bribery goes a long way with men too;)
-But seriously, let your husband know that the shoot will be painless and just really focus on playing with the kids, holding your hand, just savoring the moments!
-It also helps to tell them how important these memories are for you, your family and him! 99% of the time, after the shoots, the men often tell me how quick and painless it went!
Day of prep
-Adjusting naps for littles: if our sunset time is late-start adjusting naps the week of so they can be worked a bit later in the day.
-Potty! Everyone go before you leave, especially you mom! Usually no where to go but the forest;)
-RELAX! I promise this will be fun, relaxing, and an amazing memory for you all.
