Would you continue with your session if it had just rained??
Right before this session was about to start there was a huge downpour, it was possible the whole Family Session would be called off! I am SO glad that they said yes to continue on and have their session at Delagoon Park in Fergus Falls, Minnesota. We had already gone through their timeline for the session, images that they wanted to get and everyone was ready; so we took a chance. And…in fact did not get rained on again!!
After a rainstorm can be a beautiful time for Family Photos. The trees and ground were glistening with that after rain sparkle. You can’t always predict how it is going to look after a rainstorm but if you are in a location that has trees to diffuse the light and the light is coming through those trees it can be magical.
Tip when you are having your own session:
When you start your session don’t worry about your little one not being comfortable right away. It takes a few minutes to get situated and to realize that this is just fun and not stressful. Personally I find that the best way is to let your little one pick a pose either with parents or without. I’ll take the photo and let them see their creation, then they want to do more! I am here to make this stress-free, fun, authentic and enjoyable for everyone!
This family session was an absolute dream! They took a chance and ended up with an amazing session! I loved working with this family and all the giggles, twirling, jumping and hugs; their time went so fast!! Before we both knew it the session was over and I couldn’t wait to share with them their gallery.
