“By a Route Obscure”
Are candid photos more your thing?
This package was created for the lovers of a true lifestyle session. These sessions are entirely candid and will not include any posed images or shots with everyone looking at the camera and smiling. Instead, we’ll plan this session in your home or around a location you love to spend time, doing activities you enjoy experiencing with your loved ones. This session is for the clients wanting to showcase the interactions of families and couples, allowing personalities to shine in their own unique ways without the pressure of a perfectly posed and styled image. Intertwined fingers, hair flowing freely in the breeze, belly-laughter, and mismatched socks are all encouraged at these sessions.
If you’re looking for example images from this type of session please browse through this blog post here.

What to Wear?
– Wear clothes you feel great in! If you feel good, it will photograph as such.
– Solid colors (however, please avoid neon colors) tend to photograph better than high-contrast prints. Please avoid bold logos on clothing.
– For couples and families, your outfits should coordinate/complement each other, but don’t feel the need to get too matchy matchy. Outfits in the same tones (either warm or cool) photograph great. If you plan on wearing the same color, try doing so by choosing pieces in varying hues or shades. Google and Pinterest have a wealth of ideas if you need some inspiration! I’ve created a family session clothing inspiration board here: http://www.pinterest.com/alilauren11/what-to-wear-family/ and a couples session clothing inspiration board here: http://www.pinterest.com/alilauren11/what-to-wear-engagementcouples/
– Most importantly, be yourself! Ultimately, this shoot is about you and it’s these little details that make the photos uniquely yours. *Please note, if you have a certain look in mind, we can find a location to coordinate your style/outfit choice as well so please do not hesitate to ask me about this.
– I’m all about the details, so please be aware that your hands etc. may be featured in a photograph, or two!
Most Important!
– Have fun and interact with each other! It’s my job to capture you as a couple or family, so show me your personalities. This shoot is all about you, so show me who you are.
– Families : Get your children laughing! Play with them. Please feel free to bring along a favorite book, toy, bubbles, etc. You interacting as a family is what I want to capture 🙂
– Couples : Flirt, laugh, smile, cuddle, play, hug, kiss, love! You’re in love and I want to capture it!
– I always give guidance for poses, body placement, etc. but from there, I encourage interaction between you and your family or you and your partner. It is my job to find the light and pose you, all I need you to do is have fun and enjoy yourselves 🙂
