Cake smash tip for photographers: Embrace the mess! 🎉🍰 The best shots often come when things get a little chaotic.

Capture the laughter, the sticky fingers, and those priceless reactions – that’s where the magic happens! #CakeSmashPhotography #MessyMemories #photographertips

Photographing senior boys? Here’s a tip: Keep it casual and let their personality shine! 💪🏼✨ Instead of stiff poses, encourage movement and natural gestures – whether it’s leaning against a wall, sitting on steps, or hands in pockets. Giving them something to do helps them feel more comfortable and confident in front of the camera! #SeniorBoyPhotography #PhotographerTips #authenticposes
