Krayer family | Franklin TN family photographer

I rounded out my trio of shoots yesterday with this family, who are as sweet as they come. One of the things I love about them is that they really encourage their kiddos (especially big brother Jax) to do the things they enjoy. I learned in their on contract that Jax is on a kick where he likes to be called Detective Jackson, and they talk about him being “on the case.” He brought his hat, shovel, and other supplies along on our shoot so he could do some digging for clues, as you’ll see below. On a prior shoot I did with them, Jax brought along a bucket and we collected items at the park. I just love how they support his interests and creativity.

Speaking of my contract– there is a section where it says, “Anything else I need to know?” which is where Jax’s mama shared these details with me.  Lots of my clients do a great job telling me a tip, something their child loves, etc which ends up being a way to help me engage and connect with their child.  The better I can connect, the better the photos are.  That’s another reason why I ask clients to talk to their child(ren) prior to the session about coming to see me.  Feel free to show them my photo on Facebook or on my About Me page.  Tell them that we’re going to have fun and be silly with Ms. Elizabeth!  (I’d recommend doing this prior to the car ride to the session, of course.)
