Adorable Daddy and Me Photo Session Ideas

Cute ways to capture the relationship between father and child.

A dad has such a special bond with his children and it started the very first moment he met them. If
you’re looking to setup a daddy and me photo session with your photographer in order to capture
this wonderful bond, below are a few ideas for perfectly capturing these memories.

Snuggle up and relax

Get out a few blankets and books and have dad read to them on the
floor or on a couch.

 

Playtime

If there’s anything that dad’s do better than most, it’s playing games and having fun with their children. If they love being outside, capture them playing on the swing or enjoying a game of hide and seek. If they would prefer to be indoors, let them build a puzzle together or play with their favourite toys.

Hugs and kisses

This is a great one for young children who love nothing more than to
shower their dads with hugs and kisses. While this is a simple idea, it can make for some of
the best photos.

 

Get creative

Whether it’s making waffles in the kitchen or painting their next work of art,
having the kids get creative with dad makes for some really memorable shots.

Take a stroll

Find a pretty location such as a lake or a park where father and child can take a
walk. Capture them walking hand in hand or have your child sit on dad’s shoulders.

 

Dress to match

Why not get your child and their dad a matching outfit that they can wear
and pose together in. This could be anything from a waistcoat and bow tie to super hero
costumes.

Get close up

Close up, portrait shots of their faces are a beautiful way to capture the
similarities between father and child.

 


When planning your daddy and me photo session, choose a setting that allows your children to feel comfortable and where they most enjoy spending time with their dad.
