2. Valentines Day Dressing Up Ideas

Coordinate your subject’s clothing choices with the environment and the theme you want to express, or let them choose what they like. 

For kids, parents can try to search “Valentines cloth for kids” on Amazons, or search for inspirations on Facebook that wear the trends well, from the perfect midi skirt to a dress of Spring Floras. Outfit colors can always make your shots colorful and vibrant! Just make sure your clothing styles and colors will complement your themes and environments.

You can also try day-to-day styles. It is simple but doesn’t mean boring. Those are outfits we wear most often which are always pretty relaxed and suit for Valentine’s Day sessions, such as jeans, T-shirts and sandals, etc. Above all, there is no rigorous rule but only your preference! And the suggestions above suits for both parents and kids!

3. Creative Compositions

With thoughtful compositions and symbolism you will tell a good story by your camera in a visual but silent way. The certain compositions can define your subjects, reveals the feelings and relations.

A full body shot with different angles can frame your subjects while highlighting the environment you subjects are in. Also, concentrating on detailed through closer up shot like face shot, neck down shot or even a close-up shot on your hook fingers are also interesting, which can express the feelings.

A creative symmetric composition will create beautful images. Don’t forget to leave a certain negative space, in order to eliminates distractions and reveals feelings. For your kid(s), take traditional mid-length shots, overhead shots and some up close and personal detail shots.

4. Take Candid Shots for Unexpected Surprise

To someone who has tried lots of sets or styles, searching for a unique inspiration may seem weird, to say the least. So why won’t you just set up your background, dress up your adorable kid…and take candid shots?

Candid shots means you do not need to guide the poses but create a natural, relax environment for your clients, especially for kids. Be ready to snap photos as these moments are definitely fleeting, and you would never know what unexpected surprise will come. Just use the camera as your eyes, and capture the great moments when you’re holding hands.
