What to Expect Before, During, and After Our Session.

One week prior to the session, I will contact you via email with all location details (exact address, parking, etc) as well as any last minute notes + reminders. On the day prior, you’ll get a text reminder so that my number is readily available to you.

When we meet, know that my style is very casual and collaborative. I will give you poses and prompts, so look forward to some movement :) If there are some poses you want to try or specific shots you want to get, don’t be afraid to ask. I’m here to work with you. I try to create an easygoing environment because creating keepsakes should be an enjoyable experience.

After the session, you will receive a link in your email for your photos within the time frame specified in our photo services agreement. Here you’ll be able to select your favorite photos and order from a wide variety of prints to savor the memories forever.

What Should We Wear?

Depending on the final look you’d like to go for, I am more than happy to make some recommendations on outfits. In general, I recommend sticking to a palette of 2-4 colors. That way you'll be coordinated but not too "matchy." In most situations, I also recommend Mom to pick the outfit she loves first then have the family outfits coordinate around it :)

Solid, earthy, neutral colors look best in my bright style of photography. Large patterns or logos are not recommended as they can look distracting, but having one family member in a subtle pattern and mixing textures can create beautiful accents to your photos.

You can check out my maternity Pinterest board for some inspiration.

No matter what, make sure that what you wear makes you feel good! It will resonate in your photos.

Preparing Older Siblings.

If older siblings are joining in, frame the photo session as a fun event! If your kids like to pick their outfits regularly, let them be a part of the process in selecting their outfits (out of 2-3 of your faves, of course :) This helps them look forward to the special day.

Make sure your kids are not hungry and are well-rested.

Consider rewards or a treat afterwards. Many parents offer favorite candies or even an ice cream outing after a session. However, I highly recommend refraining on giving any candies until after the session is over.

Let them be kids :) Some of the best photos are led by the kids so be open to playing along.

One Last Note…

This is a very exciting and beautiful time in your life, and I’m so excited and honored to be a part of it. If there are any other questions before the session, please don't hesitate to ask. You can reach me at 818-921-0025, email vyroblesphoto@gmail.com, or IG @vyroblesphoto.

I’m looking forward to working together!
