Tumblin' Toddlers!

Brackenridge City Park

Our little toddler sessions are some of our favorite shoots at Tedeye Photography. While a happy, playful toddler makes for an adorable subject, all mommies know that this state can be temporary. So here are some helpful hints for helping manage a successful shoot with an independent kiddo.

1. WATER. Bringing drinking water for yourself and your family is very important. Hot kiddos can get grouchy and inpatient. Plus being dehydrated will drain mommy's energy too. 
2. Snacks or candy are perfect for rewarding good behavior throughout the shoot. Try to avoid chocolate or other candy that can melt and make for sticky faces. Pretzels, gummy bears, grapes, etc are all good examples of snacks.     
3. A back up outfit or two for babies who may have accidents during their session.
4. For babies under 18 months, it can be helpful to bring a booster chair or pillow to help prop them for shots if they are still a little wobbly. 

5. For shy kiddos, their favorite toy or blanket can help make new places less scary.

6. And for mommies, stay positive. Nervous mommies make for nervous babies.
