NOVEMBER CAN BE WARM OR IT CAN BE FREEZING COLD!  BE PREPARED! Here's some tips for cold or freezing temperatures.  Wind included.

1. If you have a newborn or baby, consider if you want to be outside with your baby in potentially freezing temperatures for 10 minutes.  If you are concerned, consider signing up for a fall session in September/October.

2. DRESS IN LAYERS!!!  Option 1: Dress in your awesome family coordinated outfits, but make your outerwear your main wardrobe for the photo session.  Wear your fancy wool dress coat with a cute hat and gloves set.  Earmuffs anyone?  And do the same for your kids.  Make your outerwear stylish and festive and voila, nobody has to freeze, unless you want to for a few photos!  We can do this however you want; start the session with a few images without your coats, scarves, hats, and gloves and get a few family portraits.  Then everyone can put their outwear on for the rest of the session, or vice versa.  If you and your family members are good at faking not being cold for 10 minutes, then you may not need to wear outwear during your session at all.  If you are planning to wear outerwear, don't make it an after thought.  It takes some planning to coordinate.  I'm pretty sure my kids' coats do not look good together in photos.

3. Option 2: If you prefer not to wear outwear in your photos but still want to stay super warm, then turn your normal clothing into your "outerwear."  Buy "thermals" for your children to wear under their normal clothes.  If you don't have thermals, find some tight fitting long sleeve shirts and leggings for your children and they will be much warmer during the session.  This goes for both boys and girls. Even mom can wear tights under jeans.  Sometimes a mix of these two options work.  Instead of having to coordinate coats, add hats (or ear muffs), gloves, and scarves to your outfits.  This is especially helpful for younger children.
