Cold winds didn’t keep these two outside for long, but the warmth of the studio was enjoyed even more!

FAQ: Studio or Outdoor

I get ask this question a lot. Should I do our session in studio or outside? I believe there are so many benefits to both! I’ve many times discussed outdoor photos, but I’d like to spend more time on a studio session. Here are some reasons a family may choose a studio session:

1. They don’t want the weather to dictate their session time. In studio, it’s always cozy and has the perfect light. No rain delays, or waiting on golden hour. You can wear what you want and stay comfortable!

2. The light is always good. During the year the sun sets at various times. Very early (maybe before you are finished with school or work) in the late fall and winter and in the summer the sun sets far after some little ones are in bed. Mid day sun is not ideal, but noon may be the happiest time for your kids! You want them at their best, so choosing a time that is best for them and not best for the sun may be ideal.

3. Your children are contained. I have 2 shooting rooms in my lofted studio. So for little runners, we can close doors and keep them contained! For some little ones the studio lights can be overwhelming but for others they enjoy the flashes and are not distracted by nature.

4. Props. While I do bring some props outdoors, we have an endless supply in the studio. So we can switch chairs as often as your toddler wants to. We can also use bigger items like my bed set up or my Victorian couch for a clean and formal look.

5. Wardrobe options are as easy as shopping in my storage room and changing in my restroom. So you can go from casual to glam in one setting. For the picky kids, they can pick out a dress that they enjoy or many to play dress up and make the session fun.

6. A comfortable home look without all the cleaning! Many of my clients love a lifestyle look and so do I! Going in your home can be hard for some kids who are too comfortable in their own space. My bed set has a great lifestyle feel without cleaning or distractions.

7. Without travel time, we can spend more time on taking beautiful pictures. This is great for short attention spans. I can change out the set in minutes vs walking around on location.

Studio photos may be the perfect option for your family or if you can’t decide choose a session option that accommodates both!
