Older Baby, Child & Toddler Information

 

Older babies are from 10 weeks and upwards.  These sessions are completely led by the baby or toddler as we all know it's impossible to get a toddler to sit still.  There is a lot of play and I try not to give too much direction so they don't get too bored.  These sessions normally last from 45 mins to 1 hour 30 mins.

Clothes:

We can do some images with baby naked but covering anything we don't want to see.  These seem to be a firm favourite with babies of around 6 months.  I use various backdrops and some props for this age as well. I also advise you bring a couple of changes of clothes for variety and try to keep to neutral colours so your images last a lifetime:) 
Atmosphere:
 
I have a very relaxed studio.  I 
think the best images are often when you sit back and let children do their own thing.  Too much direction means they get fed up easily so I keep this to a minimum and if the baby/child wants to stop for a snack or a drink then that is absolutely fine. 
 
Just relax and enjoy the session.  They will crawl, run, walk all over the place and that is just what I expect them to do.
Props:

 

You are welcome to bring props with you if you like.  A lot of families bring a favourite teddy bear or toy.  If your baby is around 6 months you can get some lovely images like the one above of them sat with their favourite teddy.  

 

You can bring favourite hats etc as well to have some photographs done.
