My friend, and fellow small business owner, Krisin Cuccia, contacted me about wanting to offer my clients some jewelry styling for their family portrait sessions. We had to do a little brainstorming on how to make it easy and fun. I thought, two of the biggest grumbles I hear from moms are, “I don’t like the way I look right now” and, “I don’t have any good photos of me with my kids.” So, we took our idea for a photo session with jewelry styling, added make-up (by make-up artist, Michelle Sidari), and set up our Mom and Me Mini Sessions. I’ll be honest, I wasn’t sure what type of response we’d get as many people do their family portraits in the fall in Rochester, NY, so I was super excited when we announced them and slots started to book quickly! And, how beautiful is this mama and her kids?! It makes me want to do a session like this with my own boys!
