We knew it was going to be tricky managing all three kiddos from trying to make sure they didn't smear their face paint to keeping their headdresses on to just plain keeping the tantrums at bay. We did okay and I think that next time I will make sure to do these again...
- Bring snacks- this is not the time to limit a kid's sugar intake in my book. Beckham had 2 bags of fruit snacks while we were there and some juice. It kept him smiling most of the time and also engaged his interest as Daddy kept bouncing around behind the camera with the treats to get Beckham to look.
- The baby is in charge! Whatever she needs to keep her happy is the top priority, the older kiddos can get their pictures taken alone while the babies are being taken care of (which is why there are so many more pictures of Boston;)
- Keep it short- By an hour, including set up, my kiddos were spent. Luckily Shannon is easygoing and didn't mind that she might not have gotten ALL of the shots she was hoping for. We can try again another day!
- Keep 'em moving! Beckham and Boston were getting bored so Shannon took them "on an adventure" and just kept right on snapping pictures and I have to say those are some of my most favorite pictures!
I absolutely adore these pictures of my babies- my friend Shannon is very talented indeed! Here is a little inspo for a Boho shoot of your own, we used the teepee I made for $16 and throw pillows I had around the house. I bought some gold/cream chevron fabric from Hobby Lobby as well as the scrap leather and feathers I used to make the headdresses (tutorial coming soon!).
I hope you enjoy these pictures and good luck staging a Boho Shoot of your own, I highly recommend it!
