Making waffles With Mom: Lifestyle Family Photography Session

Lifestyle sessions are some of my absolute favorite types of session to photograph – and something I am excited to do more of here in Georgia! A few weeks ago, Jessica asked me to swing by her house on a gorgeous Saturday morning, and hang out while her three kids were making waffles with mom!

It was so fun, you guys! The kids had a blast measuring and dumping all the flour and milk, cracking the eggs and whisking it together. But, I do think that the real fun part came when they got to eat their waffles!

Making waffles with mom is such a cute idea for a lifestyle family session – the kids get to be involved, there’s nothing posed or forced about anything, and it gave me the opportunity to capture some authentic moments. If you’re trying to think of something you could do with your kids for a photo shoot, this is definitely the way to go! Or cookies – baking cookies together would be super cute, too!

After everyone had their share of waffles, it was time to burn the energy and sugar off with some dancing. Jessica put on some of their favorite songs (including Baby Shark, which was actually the first time I ever heard the real version of it, haha!) and they danced all together in the kitchen. The kids were squealing and having the time of their lives!
