How to get genuine smiles from your kiddos
Let’s think about this: when are kids truly happy?
1. When they are told “yes”, instead of “no”.
Us adults set the rules but we can also figure out ways to reframe the situation to make it a YES instead of a NO.
2. When they get lots of attention from their parents.
I’m talking about the hugs, loving eye contact and snuggles.
3. When they get to be a little bit naughty.
You don’t always get to jump on the bed but when it’s family photo time, it’s encouraged.
4. When they are allowed to be themselves.
Your kiddo is perfect just the way they are.
5. When the grown ups act silly.
It’s no wonder that Daddy dancing like a monkey behind my camera makes those kiddos belly laugh.
If we keep these ideas in mind before and during your session, we’re pretty much guaranteed those genuine smiles from your kiddos.
