The 9 Things I Bring To Every Family Photoshoot as a Family Photographer
What do families photographers need to bring to family sessions besides just their camera gear if they want to ensure that every session is successful? In the YouTube video below, I show you 9 things that I bring with me to my family sessions that help to create a fun and relaxed environment, help me get amazing photos, and help me make sure every member of the family is having fun
But first: make sure to download my free posing guide for family photographers! I give you my favorite prompts and poses for family sessions AND give you variations for each one. You could take this guide with you to your next family session and photograph the entire session with just these poses and the variations and walk away with a STUNNING full gallery of fun, authentic, and natural family photos. Download it HERE!
The 9 things I bring with me to every family session:
This little monkey is a shutter buddy that I put on my camera to help kids know where to look! Instead of just saying hey look at this big black camera. I can say look at my friendly smiling monkey!
I love being able to provide a client closet for mamas for all of my sessions! It’s something extra that can really help with providing an incredible client experience.
I’m always prepared with lots of bow options for baby girls - just in case the parents forget or one gets lost along the way.
In addition to my client closet for moms, I also provide outfits for babies from newborn to 6 month olds.
5. Blanket for sitting on and playing London bridge
I like to bring a white blanket. I use this for sitting photos and laying down photos in addition to playing London Bridge, the Parachute game, and letting the parents swing their kids in it!
These work super well for when kids need a break , but I can still get great photos while they read!
For those times when I really need some extra help getting kids to smile!
This is for filming myself behind the scenes for social media content!
This is so helpful for getting individual photos if there is a baby under 6 months.
Did any of these items surprise you? Are there any that you’re going to try using at your next family session? Let me know in the comments!

Top 3 Posing Mistakes Family Photographers Make (and how to fix them)
The Top 3 Posing Mistakes Family Photographers Make and How to Fix Them
Let's chat about some big mistakes I see family photographers making all the time AND how you can fix them if you're making these mistakes.
BUT FIRST download my FREE posing guide for family photographers HERE.
1. Show clients a photo on their phone
This one drives me crazy! And honestly, I'm always shocked at how many photographers think this is okay! The biggest issue with this is you'll never be able to actually create authenticity in your photos if you're asking your clients to copy something from a photo. What you should do instead is SHOW your clients with your own body how to position themselves.
2. Have a posing “system” where they do the same poses at every session
Your families are unique, and it's our job to capture this sweet season of life that they are in! Each family's gallery should authenticity feel like THEM. Get to know your clients so you can tailor your prompts and poses specifically to their personalities, their love, and their unique connection as a family
3. Not take control of the session
It may seem counterintuitive but being a “fly on the wall” photographer doesn't actually create authenticity. Clients need directions and prompts! Don’t be afraid to take charge! Even as a candid photographer, it's your job to create the environment for those natural interactions to happen. Observe them and see what they naturally do and what you can enhance.
Are you making these mistakes when it comes to posing your clients? Do you want even more help creating truly authentic family photos for your families?
If you want to go even deeper with me, check out my posing course for family photographers. Mastering Authentic Connection, the Complete Posing Course For Family Photographers where you will not only learn EVERY SINGLE prompt and pose that I use for every different type of family session from families with babies and toddlers to families with older kids to extended family sessions. You will also learn how I overcome any potential challenges such as working with grumpy dads or teens and overcoming toddler meltdowns. And you’ll learn how to serve special needs families well. And how to create an amazing client experience for your clients.
You’ll also get to watch me photograph four full family sessions. Hear exactly what I say to each of my families to achieve each pose and see exactly how I create a fun environment that allows every member of the family to have fun, relax, and be their genuine authentic self.

How To Get Natural and Authentic Poses for Family Photographers
Your Family Photo should feel fun, relaxed and natural! Your clients should NOT be forcing fake smiles! In this video, we’re going to talk about HOW to make your family photos genuine, natural and authentic!
Posing Families is SO much more than just “put your hand here. Tilt your head that way.” It’s making every member of the family feel comfortable enough to be their authentic self. It’s facilitating genuine emotions between parents and their children. It’s creating a fun environment for real family memories. It’s making mamas feel confident and beautiful. It’s getting to know your families in a way that makes them feel seen and loved so that you can capture their true personalities. It’s been able to deliver galleries that make mamas cry happy tears because you captured this season of their life perfectly.
In the YouTube video below, I to be share some of my favorite go to prompts for family photography that ALWAYS work.
If you love these poses, I’ve put together an entire FREE posing guide for family photographers where I give you ALL of my favorite prompts for authentic family photos. I also give you TONS of variations for each prompt. You can take this posing deck to your family sessions and photograph an entire session with just these prompts. Go ahead and download the guide right here and give it a try at your next family session!
Use Movement For Natural Reactions
Everyone feel more comfortable when they are moving instead of standing still! If I’m trying to get a good looking and smiling at the camera photo but the kids just want to run around and be crazy, sometimes I’ll ask them to hop up and down in place! That way we can get that good looking and smiling photo that mom wants and also get really good genuine, natural smiles from the kids! Just remember to increase your shutter speed!
Work with toddler’s natural tendencies and personalities, not against them!
Some toddlers love to be held, while others are more independent. Either way is totally fine and normal! It’s important to stay flexible in your posing and tailor your prompts to the family’s personalities. If the toddlers love to be held, one thing I love to do is put them on mom and dad’s shoulders! That way they feel safe and secure getting held by mom and dad but they also are more willing to work with me and the fun poses and prompts that I have for them!
Get to know your clients!
I love to get to know my clients through a questionnaire that I send them prior to the session as well as observe their natural personalities at the actual session! That way I can tailor my prompts and poses to each family. Some poses and prompts work better for some families than others depending on personality and age!
Your Family Photo should feel fun, relaxed and natural! Your clients should NOT be forcing fake smiles! It’s your job as a family photographer to create an environment that sets everyone at ease, allows every member of the family to have fun, and help everyone relax enough that they are truly able to be their authentic selves.

In Home Lifestyle Newborn Session Photos and Videos in Greenville, SC
It' was such an honor to take both photos and videos for baby Everett’s in home lifestyle newborn session in Greenville, SC!
It’s such a privilege to be invited into the homes of new moms and dads and brand new babies to document those early days with a new baby. It’s even more of a privilege to be able to take thee sweet highlight videos for my families in addition to their full photo gallery!
My goal is always to make these newborn photos and videos as stress free for families as possible! With two babies myself, I know how tough those early postpartum days can be. Your newborn photos should be a fun experience, not an additional stress. One of the ways I do this is by providing everything you need! I bring swaddles and outfits for babies as well as dresses for mamas. You only have to dress dad (and any other kids you may have), but don’t worry! My outfit guide with links to specific outfits makes that part easy too! Another thing I do to alleviate any stress is I don’t require baby to be a certain age. Many photographers require baby to be less than two weeks old, but I don’t mind waiting if you need more time to heal and feel like yourself before your newborn photos! Baby Everett was one month old, and he did amazing for his newborn photos and videos!
If you’re a mama or a mama to be (or a daddy to be), you can learn more about my newborn photos and videos here: https://michellepoteet.com/newborn-pricing-1
P.S. For Newborn Photographers! We filmed the behind the scenes from this session for my new course all about lifestyle newborn photography - coming soon!! You can get on the waitlist here!
Posing Inspiration for Newborn Photos
Newborn Photographers (or aspiring newborn photographers)! We filmed the behind the scenes of this in home lifestyle newborn session for my newborn photography course, coming soon! You can get on the waitlist here!
Everett was one month old at the time of this newborn session. I’m not a newborn photographer that is strict on the timeframe that the photos must be done in. I’ve had babies as old as 3 months old for newborn photos. It’s important to stay flexible and not assume that every newborn session will me the same. For example, older newborns may not do as well with swaddles. Sometimes they are just more awake, stronger, and they like to break out of my newborn wraps. No big deal! I bring lots of outfits for newborns in addition to swaddles.
Surprisingly, even with Everett already being one month old (and born at almost 9 pounds!), he did great with the swaddle! I used a plain white one, a light blue one to match mama’s dress, and a lacy white one. I also used a little white outfit that I brought.
I can’t wait for you to watch me photograph this session as part of my new newborn photography course. In the meantime, you can use these photos as posing inspiration for your own newborn sessions!

Check out the photos from the session below to gain some inspiration for poses with toddlers and babies!

Our Family Vacation Photos in Hollywood, Florida
I truly practice what I preach and never miss an opportunity to get more family photos of the four of us! Especially while my babies are so little and changing so much, I feel the need to take family photos as often as possible. I want to document this sweet season of life as much as possible. Both for me and my husband to remember this time AND for our kids to have these photos when they’re older.
Last week, we took a family vacation with all of Mark’s siblings and the spouses and kids. It was SO much fun. It was both of our girls’ first flights as well as little Rosalie’s first time at the beach. Hollywood, Florida is a cool beach town! I would definitely recommend it for an easy and fun family vacation. We rented a huge airbnb that we all stayed in. It was walking distance from the beach. And the beach was full of bars and restaurants. I love how walkable everything was! Our kids has so much fun playing in the pool, going to the beach, building sandcastles, and playing with family.
We also took some big extended family photos of all of us while we were there at sunrise one morning. I set up my tripod with a remote for some big group photos. And I took photos of each of the individual families. And I handed my camera to my sister-in-law to take these photos of my own little family.
Enjoy some of our own little family photos!

Golden Hour Winter Family Photos in Greenville, SC
Did you known you can have beautiful golden hour family photos and videos here in Greenville, SC in the winter? Actually, the winter is one of the best times of the year for golden hour or sunset photos and videos in upstate south carolina if you have toddlers and babies. In general, I don’t love the early sunsets, BUT as a Greenville Sc family and newborn photographer, I love that the earlier sunsets mean that we can achieve beautiful family photos at golden hour without cranky babies and toddlers. These photos were taken at 4:30pm. A perfect time of day for babies and toddlers. I always want to make sure your kiddos are as happy as possible. I’m not the type of photographer to tell you that you have to keep your 2 year old up until 9pm. I am a firm believer that happy babies and toddlers are more important than beautiful lighting BUT if I can have happy kids AND amazing light, then of course I will take it!
