Information.
Having spent a great deal of time working with children, I understand their needs and take this into account when coming to spend the day with you. As a result I am fairly relaxed and like to work around you and your family to ensure that I capture images that are personal and unique to you.
I recommend that we start in the morning after breakfast or directly after lunch when children are fed and well rested. That way we can get the most out of our time together.
I will arrive at your home or an agreed location and spend the first 10 minutes to half an hour getting to know you and your family.
Once I start taking photos I tend to try and stand back and watch the family interact to capture images that are natural. I may introduce ideas or games as needed to help guide you so that we can get the best set of images. I encourage parents to play with the children and interact with them in their usual way as this keeps them relaxed and happy.

A. A session can take anything from an hour to up to two or three depending on the days events. I recommend you allocate a minimum of half a day for the shoot.
