No matter who you are, no matter what kind of camera you have….if you do it yourself or hire a professional…GET YOURSELF in front of that camera with your children.  Do it for yourself, do it for your kids.  They will thank you someday.  You will have “frozen” time,  just for a bit.   Your momma heart will be SOO happy someday that you did when they are all grown.

I have made a conscious effort the past couple years to make sure I am in front of the camera more with my babies.  These are some of my FAVORITE images below that I had taken last fall by the fabulous Laura McPherson of Elephant Juice Photography.  I will treasure them forever!

This year, in effort to get more moms in front of the camera with their little ones, I am offering a special round of Mother’s Day Mini Sessions.

WHEN:  April, 28th

WHO:  Moms, kids and grandmothers if desired

WHAT:  Each 20 min session will include 5 full resolution images with rights to print.  There will be a gallery of 8-12 images from which to choose.  Price:  $150.00 plus tax.  Plus 20% off all a la carte items.

WHERE:  The session will take place in my home studio.   I have ALWAYS been drawn to the timeless “look” of simple uncluttered backgrounds..   The special bond between you and your children will be captured using a grey backdrop.   There will be no need or worrying about what to wear.   A simple white or black t-shirt/tank top paired with jeans will be perfect.  Little boys can even go shirtless.

* Due to space and time constraints a maximum of 4 people will be allowed per session.

Please contact me at heather@heathermunsonphotography to book your session.

This picture of Big Sister and baby warms and melts my heart…it also makes me giggle cuz we had 4 people wrangling both girls to get this ONE SHOT…worth it I’d say!

Do you have a DSLR camera and want to learn how to take great pictures of your kids?

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Many parents purchase DSLR camera in hopes of not missing a moment of their children’s lives, but are not totally satisfied with the images when they appear on their computer screen.  They just want their images to be better.

This workshop will help you take better pictures of your kids.  It focuses on concepts you can easily put into practice, just by understanding lighting, composition, perspective and age appropriate techniques.  Participants will walk away with a 80 page presentation manual that includes both in depth details and quick tips for common situations which will help them improve their photos immediately… just by taking the time to assess light, change up their angle, and remember a few quick tips.

Topics include:
* training your eye to find the light,
* composition and perspective,
* lens and focal length selection,
* tips for great images at any age
* output: downloading, storage and printing
* high level review of exposure
* auto and semi-manual settings

Bring your camera and bring your questions!
