“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”
— Aaron Siskind

My formula for photographing toddlers; play, patie

My formula for photographing toddlers; play, patience, speed and compassion!⁣
⠀⠀⁣
I’ve found toddlers are either in the mood, or, absolutely not!⁣
⠀⠀⁣
If the child is occupied with something they want to do, I.e digging or playing with a toy, this is good because they’re content.⁣
⠀⠀⁣
For the busy baba who doesn’t want to sit and pose;⁣
⠀⠀⁣
Let the preoccupied child play, have your camera set up in the desired spot.⁣
⠀⠀⁣
You then you have about 30 seconds to distract with something like ‘oooh come see this snail in my hand!’⁣
⠀⠀⁣
Then! Grab a few snaps and pop back down again to avoid tears. ⁣
⠀⠀⁣
Now it is time to sit and play again for another 5, have a sip of coffee and plan for the next distraction! ⁣
⠀⠀⁣
Never plan to do something just after a session like this incase extra play time is needed between shots. ⁣
⠀⠀⁣
Whether you’re a DIY parent or photographer who hasn’t worked with toddlers before, I hope you find this useful! ⁣
⠀⠀⁣
I photograph families whether they’re at weddings or not! Send me a message if you would like to book a session ✉️ ⁣

6 stages of a successful confetti shot 👉🏻⁣

6 stages of a successful confetti shot 👉🏻⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
〰️ 1. After your ceremony, you both stay behind and I help to send guests out the front of the townhall / church etc 💁🏻‍♀️⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
〰️ 2. Whilst they shuffle out, I often use this five minutes to grab some cute couple shots in the beautiful interior 📷⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
〰️ 3. Now whilst you two stay, I go to form two even lines either side of doors and ensure that everybody has their (hopefully eco) confetti ready 🌸⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
〰️ 4. Your natural reaction is going to feel like you want to hunch and close your eyes. I will remind you to fight this urge 🙈⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
Shoulders back, chin up and big smiles 💃🏾 Embrace all the colour swirling around you and the guests cheering you on. 🌈 ⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
〰️ 5. After one of the most exhilarating parts of the day and after the cotton mouthed relief of saying all the right vows in the ceremony, it is a great time for a glass of bubbles to settle the high. 🍾⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
💡 My top tip is to have something to refresh after this point, where for just you two but your guests often can’t wait to wet the whistle too. 🥂💦⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
So many couples are super thirsty and heads whirling at this stage. 💆🏻‍♀️⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
〰️ 6. If at a busy town hall, we gather to the side to allow the next couple in. Your guests then take their carriages to your reception venue. 🚖 ⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
And that’s it - fini! It’s fast paced but I’ll be there snapping away for you to hold on to the moment forever ⏳⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
Enquire for 2021 / 2022 by sending a DM!⁣⁣

Natural & easy posing tip 👉🏻:⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
One way to look natural in photos is to whisper hilarious or cute things into the others ear.⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
You will both be grinning and your attention not so much on the fact your photo is being taken.⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
See how Jakob & Olga are snuggled up and in a world of their own? ⁣⁣
⠀⠀⁣⁣
I’m taking bookings now for Couple Shoots and Wedding Consultations for 2021 & 2022. ⁣⁣
