Recent Tips:
Evan’s Photo Tip #1: Plan a photo shoot at home. Set aside a few hours to photograph your child and set yourself up for success by choosing a place and time that works best with their daily routine.
Evan’s Photo Tip #2: Get in close! Fill as much of the frame of your shot with your child as possible. Don’t just rely on your camera’s zoom or photo cropping which may reduce the image quality.
Evan’s Photo Tip #3: Less is more. Your child should always be the star of your shot. Avoid loud patterns, props or accessories that can be distracting. Let your child’s natural emotion and expression engage your audience.
