your custom fine art mini session
So you booked your mini session. Now what?
I am excited to capture your loved ones. Lifestyle photography is unique because it not only captures what you look like at a certain point in time, it captures who you are. I aim to capture your children, where they are at. The goal is not to get a stiff and posed shot with everyone looking at the camera, but to capture the true essence of your child. I take a documentary approach to photography and use my knowledge of my equipment and natural light to create images that will become works of art that you can hang in your home and pass down for generations. Here are a few tips to help you prepare for your mini session with me.
location: Fine Art Mini Sessions will be held in predetermined locations in Richmond or Steveston, BC.
time: Fine Art Mini Sessions will be held during the day, as using natural light outdoors or in a studio location.
length of session: Fine Art Mini Sessions are super fast at 10 minutes per session. Don’t worry, I can easily get a diverse and adequate gallery of minimum 5 digital images in that time.
what to wear: Wardrobe should be comfortable to reflect your child. I do not recommend matching but rather coordinating. Click HERE to read a guide I wrote to help you select what your child should wear for the mini session. I am happy to consult with you directly on wardrobe if you are interested. Just let me know.
props: I do not use props during my sessions. However, if you have something in mind, please let me know.
your children: Remember that children are not usually fond of being told to pose or smile. It is best if we just give the children time to relax and try to capture their natural self. Don’t worry, if your child is running about and active, most of the images you see of young children on my site were captured while the child or toddler was busy playing and exploring. To get the most out of your mini session, make sure that your little one has rested and has had adequate snacks and water. Prepare the child for the mini session by letting them know that a friend will be taking some photos of them, it is best not to surprise them.

PLEASE ARRIVE ON TIME OR BE READY TO START ON TIME: Remember, your session is scheduled according to your mini session timeslot. It is important that we start on time. Please plan for extra traffic or parking constraints. It is best to arrive early.
I sincerely can’t wait to capture your kiddos! Do not hesitate to ask me any questions you have. See you soon!
