Photo Tip #1: Get down to their level.

Most of our photos are taken from above. We’re standing, they’re playing, we grab the phone and snap. And we often see the top of their head.

Today, crouch down to their level and take it again.

Suddenly you’re in their world, and you can see their face and expression.

After spending 29 years in the classroom, I learned to put yourself at the child’s height when interacting with them. It works for photos too!

Save this so you remember the next time you reach for your phone.

Follow for easy ways to capture your child’s life. ❤️

If you’re nervous for your first photography session, this is for you.

I just published a new article about the night before my first client session, what I was feeling, what I was afraid of, and the one thing I wish every new photographer knew sooner.

It’s for the photographer who wants to do it right, cares deeply, and feels that mix of excitement and nerves all at once.

I remember the night before my first session, sitting on the floor with my camera bag open… checking everything for the third time.

Sometimes I think the quiet, in-between moments are the ones that end up living in our hearts the longest. The ordinary days really are full of more beauty than we realize while we’re in them.
