COOPERSVILLE MI Family Photographer | Tips for Emotionally Preparing Your Husband For Your Family Session
My husband (ASP PHOTOGRAPHY HERE) hates when I dress everyone up for a good ole updated family photo. So I have learned some tricks of my own that helped mu hubby! Award winning family photographer near Coopersville, MI.
For some of us, preparing our husbands for the family photo session is as exhausting as preparing the kids. If your husband is happy-go-lucky about photo day, that’s excellent. If you’re dealing with someone who’s reluctant, however, then here are some things you can do to help:

· Especially if this is your first session together with the family now that the kids are mobile, let him know how the session will go and discuss your expectations. Also, if you have to bribe the kids, communicate this with him so he can help remind them of the bribery.
· Warn him that the kids will probably be crazy or freak out and that he should prepare himself for that. Let him know that it will still be fine and to try not to get overwhelmed or worried. Family sessions are supposed to be fun anyway! We will play games, laugh, smile and show genuine emotion!
· Let him know that the more helpful he is in getting himself and the kids ready, the less stressed you will be and the less chance of an argument between you arising.
· Remind him that the session is only up to one hour and then it will all be over. This way, he sees a light at the end of the tunnel and can stick it out.
· If your husband is being difficult, bribe him to cooperate during the session as well. If it works for the kiddos, it may very well work for him!
· And most importantly - remind him that you love him (and that he loves you, and that’s why he’s cooperating with this). Tell him how much you appreciate his support and cooperation in this, and how pleased you are going to be with the finished photos.
