On the day of the session, it's helpful to arrive early. That helps us not feel rushed and can set the tone for our time together. We will go over any last minute details and then start the session. The sessions are fluid, so they are not all mapped out and rigid. The #1 thing to bring to a photoshoot is your positive attitude (no no, don't eye roll me!). Have an understanding that the shoot might not going to go "how you think it should".  Kids will be kids and that's ok (to an extent of course) but it's more dissatisfying to have a picture where the parents look grumpy, then one where the kids do!
