Putting your Best Face Forward {DFW, Frisco Family Photographer}

I am saying it again...It is holiday picture time. December will be here before you know it and now is the time to plan for your family's holiday portraits.
Here are a few basic tips to get your best faces forward for your family.

1. Plan ahead! Do not wait until the last minute to do photos. Texas weather is unpredictable and you never know if it will be snowing in November or be 90 degrees.
2. Opportunity Knocks...The closer it gets to December, the photos will move down in your list. It is one missed opportunity to capture your kiddos at his time. They will never be this young again.
3. Dress for the part. You do not have to be matchy for photos. Yes, it works, but you can be creative with your use of color or styles. Talk to your photographer for suggestions and guidance.
4. Smile with a purpose...Think about how you want to display your photo. Think bigger than a snapshot. Photos are great art and conversational pieces.
5. Stress Be Gone. The more you stress about photos; the more your kiddos act out. They know your buttons.

Holidays are a wonderful time to share your memories with your family. Enjoy these moments and share them for years to come.
