Be connected

As the professional it is your duty and job to inform the interest parties or clients, the kind of age group you are handling when it comes to this photography session, the times you allocate for each session or child, the duration for which the session most likely might last for, the temperature and even the location. You’d be surprised at how well the client would appreciate for being informed of all these minor details that do indeed make a difference to the entire session. It would also help the client better if you inform them the day before they are to be present for the shoot, what they should be doing to assist the process better and what they might need to bring along and other little tips and advises. This would make the entire session flow in ease not only for yourself but for the client as well.
Focus on the light and angle
As a photographer you need to understand that lighting and angle is everything in a picture. It could either make or break a wonderful moment. So do focus on finding or creating the right angle for a picture and direct light as needed to beautify the picture even more. When you talk of lighting you cannot also forget about the shadows. Shadows add in a 3D effect to the entire picture. So positioning the subject of interest and other little props in a way where lighting and shadows bring out the best in each other, is essential to capture a great picture. So do not ever ignore such details in this kind of photography.
