When Ohio weather has turned cold and dreary, there’s nothing better than an in-home or studio session! Your little one is already comfortable in their own home or can get comfy in a warm and cozy studio. Don’t get me wrong, it’s always fun to get those outdoor winter photos but it’s definitely not fun to freeze your butt off- especially when kids are involved! 

Here are a few tips and tricks to make the most of your upcoming in-home or studio family session:

1. Schedule around nap times that way your baby is well rested, happy, and excited! 

2. Make sure they’ve eaten and possibly offer a reward after photos so they know it can be a fun & exciting experience. This can be as small as M&Ms or ice cream, possibly even a new toy. Also snacks are great motivation during the session! 

3. Pick one base item for your wardrobe and build around it. You can pull colors from that base piece to coordinate but not be too matchy matchy. 

4. Trust you photographer & their process! Also have a vision of what you’re looking for in mind. 

I hope these tips are helpful! Now let’s get you booked for a warm & cozy session!
