This photoshoot wasn’t what I had originally planned on, but it ended up being lots of fun. I was expecting most of my shots to be candid, but after following Robert and the family around, it became evident that “picture-perfect moments” just don’t happen easily by themselves. It didn’t mean I had to pose every photo, but asking Robert to intentionally interact with the kids, and sometimes telling them to do specific things or stand in specific places helped me get better shots. That one shot with the parakeet is definitely my favorite! She got the bird, I asked Robert to get on his knees, and it worked out really nicely.
