Happy Third Birthday, K! Check out this Peppa Pig inspired session.
Perhaps one of the best parts of children's photography is that anything is possible. This, of course, includes a child's favorite cartoon character, such as my latest third birthday session that's on the blog today! Moreover, designing a session around a child's preferences is special because you will look back fondly at the images and remember this time in his or her life.In case you're unfamiliar with this popular children's cartoon, visit Peppa pig here. She's quite cheeky and little ones love her. You may remember seeing K's cousin's on the blog, too at their watermelon cake smash session. That's another aspect of photography I truly treasure: meeting your families and getting to know you.
For Katelyn's third birthday photos, we opted to design a session that portrays both child and family photography; this is because I encourage parents to participate in the session. As a mama, I know that when you're at home with your little ones, more often than not, one parent is holding the camera and it's hard to have everyone together in the same photo. Because of this, it's always nice to take a few moments and capture everyone together.
For K's birthday session, I had Mom and Dad meet me in The Woodlands Texas at a lovely location featuring tree lined paths, easy parking and a bridge. The fall/winter colors even came through for some of the session, which is a big deal for Texas, ha!
As you can see, I kept the posing very natural and easy going. Each family dynamic differs and sometimes the session is a little more composed and other times it's more free play. That's something I enjoy doing: embracing the spirit of your family and capturing you as you are. It's nice to also have a variety of images from tickles and big smiles to everyone interacting together. Sometimes I'll have you all look at the camera and smile and other times I'll have you focus on your child and engage him or her. Be who you are! These portraits are connections to your past and as time fleetingly moves, you'll look back on these images and remember who you were.
Thank you to this lovely family for having me document Katelyn's third birthday session as well as your winter family portraits! I truly enjoyed meeting you and hope to see you again!
I'd love to photograph your family milestone or child's birthday portraits!
