Take a Deeeep Breath

The amount of people that at the beginning of their session say “oh my goodness I’m so nervous” and then at the end say “hey that was fun!” Is A LOT.

So, I’m writing this blog post to calm your nerves and keep the butterflies out of your stomach and in the air during your session!

EVERYONE feels the way you feel. Most people are nervous, anxious, and uncomfortable at the beginning of their session. Yet, you saw their photos on my website and decided to book me. So guess what- that’ll be you next!

People say at the end of their session “that was fun!” or “that was easier than I thought!”- because they quickly realize that all they have to do during their session is something they do everyday- be themselves.

I start every session saying “you’ve done your job, you’ve showed up. Now it’s my job to make you look good. That’s what you’re paying me for.” I’m the professional picture- taker. I know how to get the good angles and make you feel comfortable. All the pressure is on me, not you!

So, take a breather, and know that if your kid is screaming and running around, if you are jittery and shaky, if you had a rough day before standing in front of my lens… So have other people, and we made it, and we got good photos.

With that, please take a deep breath, and know we are going to get the shot no matter what!. I can’t wait.
