Preparing for your session!

Location

This Vintage Bus Holiday Mini session will take place at the Jensen Beach Causeway. The bus will be parked on the north west side of the causeway. You will easily be able to see Conchy Joe's Restaurant across from the location.

Arrive Early

Arrive 5-10 minutes early to give yourself plenty of time for last minute issues that may arise.

Mini Sessions are scheduled back-to-back and any amount of time that you're late will directly impact the length of your session and number of images you may receive.

Please be prepared to prep yourselves or children in the car if they are not ready at arrival.

What to Wear

I know planning what to wear for your photo session can sometimes be stressful but I don't want you to stress!

I often encourage mom to decide on her outfit first and then build on the rest of the family's clothing from there.

Find something to wear that makes you feel beautiful! If you feel good in what you are wearing, it will transfer to your photos! Don't be afraid to dress it up.

Dresses are the most flattering for women, and photograph beautifully. Long dresses with movement add a touch of grace and elegance!

Keep patterns minimal. If mom is wearing a floral dress, everyone else can be in solids that match or compliment the colors in her pattern.

You don't all have to match, but definitely do try to choose complimenting colors.

Don't be afraid to accessorize the family! Necklaces, belts, scarves, bow ties, suspenders, headbands and so on!

The Bus is dark green so I would recommend wearing Reds, whites, khakis or blue jeans. Festive colors will look the best!

What to Bring

You will not need to bring any props as I will supply those. If your child would like to hold a prop I will have small artificial wreaths, santa mugs, soft disco balls and presents. They will be able to choose a prop to use if they wish.

Also, with children, make sure they have gone potty and are fed well before arriving.

It's also a good idea to bring favorite snacks and drinks for little ones to use if needed. Keep hidden until it's necessary though so it doesn't become a distraction.

Favorite candy or toys may be good to have hidden as well, for some just in case bribery! 

Preparing the Little Ones

Talk to them ahead of time about where you are taking them and what they will be doing.

Let them know they are going to have fun and how much we love to see their smiles! It's also good for them to know that it's only for a short time.

A lot of families also discuss a fun activity or treat to have together after the pictures are done too!

Once your children are prepared mentally and physically, feel free to give them (and yourself) some grace. Some days don't go as planned. I have seen it all so please dont panic if your kids are not doing what you want them to.

I know you love more than just their biggest smiles, so we will be capturing many precious moments and faces they make.

Have Fun!

Remember to relax and have fun! If you are stressed, your kids tend to be too.

If you are relaxed and enjoying your time with them, they tend to do so too!

Relaxed parents and families = beautiful portraits!

Payment/Cancel/Reschedule Policy

Due to the nature of this type of session, full session fee is required to reserve a spot. Session fees are non-refundable, but transferable to be used towards another session. Mini-Sessions are on a very strict schedule, so please plan to arrive 10-minutes before your session to allow time to park and get to the spot. The VW Bus is only available on the original date of 11/24/2024. If you need to reschedule, your session may be rescheduled for another location in Jensen Beach without the Bus however, hand held props will still be available. If the session is cancelled due to rain or weather, another date will be planned and coordinated with the VW Bus but will depend on its availability.
