Sure, they can be tricky! But it’s a whole different world when you’re photographing a family and a toddler is AFRAID OF YOU!

That makes capturing the perfect image much more difficult!!

And you might be thinking, “but Katelyn, you always said you’re a wedding photographer, and not a family photographer”

I still feel passionate about capturing EPIC wedding portraits, but ..

I now understand how VALUABLE it is to have family pictures when our kids are young and I don’t get annoyed when kids aren’t behaving well.. I’m in that same season and I totally get it now!

Okay back to the image! The toddler was not cooperating for the majority of the time, and we had to use some distractions that helped get one of my favorite images of the day! 

You can watch the steps I took and small changes I made to get this image in this week’s Youtube video!
