I try to make the focus of your Myrtle Beach family photography sessions about the closeness of your family and all the little things that happen as you interact together, naturally. Don’t worry, I will give you direction as far as how and where I want you to sit or stand and then I will tell you exactly what comes next. I make sure to photograph your “Christmas card picture” as I like to call it- the posed one where everyone is smiling and looking at the camera. However, the overall session will be more relaxed and candid, lifestyle type images. We will talk in detail about your expectations of your family session and how it all works. I want to make sure you LOVE your images, so communication about exactly what you want is important. Many times, clients will say, “I trust you to just do what you think.” Those words are music to my ears because then I can direct your session exactly as I see it in my mind, from helping style your clothes to choosing the perfect location. I want your experience with me to be one that brings you back time and time again! Usually the dad’s or teenagers are the most reluctant to say yes to scheduling a family picture session (you know this is true, Mom.) Don’t worry, I am FUN and super easy to work with. You guys typically make me laugh for most of the session or you are laughing at me for all the shenanigans we go through to make your session perfect!
