TIP TUESDAY #8

How much time do I really need for my session?

Here at ALP we offer three different options for your session. To help you choose the one that’s right for you, we have compiled this list to help you understand the amount of time needed for your session.

THE EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION (or the Mini Session) – 20-30 minutes– A mini session is ideal if you just want to document what your child looks like at the age he or she is right For example, doing a session for 7-year-old photos, or 4th grade photos, etc. These sessions are short and are best suited for older children (post-toddler) who are able to follow directions rather quickly. There will be some variation in the photos, but we don’t change locations or outfits, so there’s not a lot of extra creative shots included.

ALP STUDIO COLLECTION – 1 hour– This is our most popular session. This session caters to younger children and allows us to capture more creative photos. We permit two outfit changes for this session. An hour gives us more time to get the younger children to warm up and cooperate, which the mini session doesn’t allow for.

ALP STUDIO/ON LOCATION COLLECTIONS – 1-2 hours– We suggest this session if you are doing a sibling session with three or more children. This amount of time allows us to take photos of your children together, as well as individually. It will also give us more time to pose them together and to get good, genuine smiles. Depending on how many children you have and their ages, this session can allow up to two outfit changes for siblings and three to four for individual children. One location determined during booking consultation.

Thank you for sticking with us!

TIP TUESDAY #5

Choosing the perfect location for your session

It’s almost time for your session and we’re trying to decide on a location. Here are some things you’ll want to think about:

Keep in mind the décor of your home. My personal photography style is bright, soft & airy. My home is more modern minimalist themed. I would never have us dressed in bright colors on a canvas on my wall because it doesn’t go with my décor. Make sure you coordinate your outfits and locations to match the décor style of your home. You also will need to coordinate the colours with the walls of your house so they don’t clash.
If you have a more vintage style decor in your home, studio canvas portraits may not look as amazing, and location portraits not as good unless you put them in complimentary vintage type frames to make them fit in more.
If you have a more modern home like mine, studio photos will more than likely be your best option.
You can also choose to have a lifestyle session done inside your home. We will come to your house and take photos of your family in your own natural environment. These are beautiful and will look great in your house because they match perfectly.

HOW TO ELIMINATE FAKE SMILES DURING YOUR SESSION

Kids are completely unpredictable.

They can be so adorable and easy going and laughing uncontrollably one minute, and the next minute, turn that charm off completely. They will typically smile for you all day long until you put them in front of a camera, then they freeze up like a deer in headlights. We want to avoid the gritted teeth and bug-eyed forced smiles during our session.

Here are some things you can do…

Make a list of things that your child thinks are funny and send it to us prior to the session. This way, we can be prepared and add these things into our ‘bag of tricks’.

Also give us a list of icebreakers for your child. Tell us the kinds of shows they watch, music they listen to, friends’ names, favorite story, etc. This will give us something to talk to them about, and will help themforget they’rein front of the camera.

Practice phrases at home to see which ones evoke the best smiles from your child. (Please, oh please, avoid “Say cheese!” unless that really works for you child.)

Try out a couple of jokes with them. During the session, we can ask them to tell us a joke and this will typically loosen them up as they tell it to us.

If there is a song that your child loves, load it up to your phone and bring it along with you, or be prepared to sing it for them during the session.

Prepare bribe (such as a toy, a trip to the zoo, etc.) and show it to them, or remind them of it, during the session.

THE ESSENTIAL PORTRAIT COLLECTION

‘Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.’ ~ Leondardo Da Vinci

There is nothing more pure and sophisticated than that of the simplest Children’s Portrait. A huge passion and goal behind my why was to fill homes with timeless beautiful art of their loved ones. While some may love colour and don’t get me wrong I do too, there is something about the simple of whites that makes me feel oh so calm. It leaves the most angelic softness to any portrait.

This collection is my newest one and my absolute favourite one. It will be offered this year in the studio and is open for bookings. For wardrobe options please chat with us when scheduling your session.
