BLack And White Mini SEssions

WITH SHARE MORE STUDIOS

1. My goal is for you to enjoy your session and have fun! I want you to almost forget I’m taking your picture so I can capture those authentic moments but also photograph those magical moments in black and white


2. My style is candid based, but I will gently pose you with prompts and make sure you are represented well! I will get a few of those lovely smiling shots of course too if you fancy! But please know that my sessions are not entirely posed and cheesin, more loose but fun, they tell a story! :)


3. Requests for special photos are always welcome when attainable! However, no photo is guaranteed due to the nature of a photo shoot . These are moments in black and white so we will be highlighting emotion and connection! Even if for just one kiddo, these will be perfect to find little moments and personality


4. Outfits do still matter in black and white! These sessions specifically will be in front of a white backdrop so thinking of your clothes in terms of line and color and comfortability are important

*special note please bring other shoes than the shoes you wear to keep the floor and paper extra clean :) I do leave enough time for disinfecting and tidying for each session.


5. Your session time will be up to 10 minutes, so arriving on time is important so that we can use the full amount of the session!


6. Galleries are delivered via link through Pixieset with full download instructions and access to purchase prints from my print lab!


7. Photos taken during your session may be used on Share More Studios web/print platforms, but if you prefer your photos not be shared, let me know in advance, no problem!


8. All photos in the gallery are final, and you get them all! At least 15-20! Any wish for additional photos/edits beyond the delivered gallery will be an extra fee per photo.


9.You may use your photos on social media platforms, but I kindly ask, do not screenshot photos from gallery, put filters over top of images, or crop/edit your images drastically from your gallery. This represents a false quality of my work.


10. As always be sure to download your photos. Galleries are only posted for one year. 


*Most importantly! I want to capture memories that make you feel, that tell part of your story and that you cherish forever! I am so beyond thankful for this opportunity to work with you!

So now what?


Let's go over how to rock your session, a quick talk on outfits! Below are outfit and session tips!

Let's Talk Outfits!


+ what you wear will depend largely on "feel" you are going for!

+ I am not in the business of "telling" you what to wear, I want you to feel like YOU, I want these memories to be something YOU cherish!

HOWEVER, the patterns you wear can change the overall look and feel of your session!

+ Since this session will be all black and white, color won't matter so much think more Dark vs. Light and the look you want!

+ BUT First, Choose something you feel comfortable and confident in! 

+ If for a family shoot, Sometimes choosing one persons outfit and building from there helps. Usually, I recommend choosing an outfit for the most difficult to dress person first (I am the most difficult in my family!)

+ Choose patterns or just colors you love even though it will be in black and white. When you feel good in your outfit it translates into the photo!

+ Mix and match! have some in patterns and some in solid colors if you want!! Mix checkers, with solids and even stripes

+ Remember this is just a guide, change it up if you’d like!

+ think of what “feel” you want with your session, moody? Fun? Calm? Lightness or dark colors and patterns help with that!

+I am always here for more personalized help and can make you a style board!

S0me Things to steer away from


+graphic tees or large logos on shirts (though sometimes needed for the feel of the session etc like cool band tees and denim you know! )

+Something that could distort in your camera like extremely small patterns etc!

+clothing that is restrictive or makes you feel not confident, unable to move, or too tight etc.

+everyone wearing the same color or pattern like all black shirts or all plaid

Some Outfit Inspiration + Example work below


Use the arrows to look at some outfit inspo and examples of my black and white photos! (these are just A FEW examples with various locations and backdrops and backdrop colors, across multiple years so my work has adjusted over time, but to get some ideas and a feel for my work! I don't often offer just black and white work on a plain backdrop so this is a great opportunity to snatch. The possibilities are endless!)
