Preparing for Princess Mini or Children’s Couture Photos

1. Arrive at your scheduled session time 5-7 minutes early. If you arrive too late, your session will be cancelled and you’ll lose all monies paid. 
2. Don’t forget to feed your child/children before the session (bonus if they’ve had a nap).
3. Make sure you have a backup outfit for each child just in case.
4. Don’t change your child/children into the/their session clothing until after they eat.
5. Bring a “muscle” shirt for boys and biker shorts (in white, nude, or a neutral color) for girls if you’ll be borrowing from the client closet.
6. Bring along their favorite toy or blanket, this will help them to feel comfortable during the session (it’s always smart to have a bribe in place such as fruit snacks, candy or a toy).
7. Talk to your child/children about the session and explain what’s going to happen.
8. Talk to your significant other about the session, how the session will go and discuss what your expectations are. 
9. If there will be more than one child at the session, remember to coordinate instead of match. In addition, please ensure all outfits are wrinkle-free by keeping them on a hanger.
10. Two days prior to the session, pack a bag with what you will need on picture day: snacks, props, wipes, hairbrush, emergency items, etc.).
