Before your session


A few things to remember before we meet:


  • Don’t stress — nothing needs to be perfect
  • Trust the process
  • Rest well if you can
  • Focus on being together, not on posing
  • The most beautiful moments are usually the natural ones


What to wear


The best outfits are simple, comfortable, and feel like you.

I recommend:


  • soft neutral tones
  • beige, cream, white, light brown, soft blue, olive
  • no big logos
  • no very bright neon colors
  • no busy prints
  • flowy fabrics work beautifully
  • coordinate, don’t match too hard


Most important: wear something you feel good in.

What to bring


A few small things can make the session easier:


  • snacks for the kids
  • water
  • a comfort toy if needed
  • extra clothes for little ones
  • pictures
  • and a relaxed mood


Please don’t worry about bringing too much.

Simple is always best.

On the day of your session


Please arrive a few minutes early so everything feels calm.


A few reminders:

  • let kids be kids
  • don’t force smiles
  • don’t worry if things feel messy
  • trust me to guide you
  • just enjoy being together


The best photos usually happen in between.

Locations


I always help choose the best location for your session based on light, season, and the feeling you want.


Some favorite options in Malaga:

  • beach at sunset
  • open natural areas
  • quiet streets
  • cliffs or mountain views
  • cozy at-home sessions


The most important thing is choosing a place that feels right for your story.

If you’re coming with kids


Please don’t worry if they run, get distracted, or don’t want to smile.


That’s completely normal.

I never expect children to be “perfect.”

I work with their energy and let things happen naturally.

Some of the sweetest photos come from those real little moments.




What if the weather changes?


Wind, clouds, and imperfect conditions can still be beautiful.

Some of my favorite photos happen in exactly that kind of light.

If the weather is truly bad, we simply reschedule.


No stress.

After your session


After our session, I’ll carefully choose and edit your images in my style.


You can expect:

  • a preview shortly after
  • your full gallery within your delivery timeframe
  • an online gallery that is easy to download and share
