Photoshoot studio ideas: Part 1 – Pillow Fights

Jan

18

When I moved into my  new photography studio, in Chesterfield MO, I sat in here and looked around. Gosh Emily, this space is AMAZING! Now what in the WORLD do I DO in here! 🙂  Call me crazy, but the first thing I thought of was, pillow fights! Weird right? Well not really. Kids love to have pillow fights and typically are not allowed to jump up on the bed and make a huge mess.  So of course I want  kids be kids here, where it’s much easier to clean up. Well… sort of haha. I did not want to do ANY sort of pillow fight. I wanted to have a pillow fight where we allowed feathers to go all over! Why not right?  (I will TELL you why to avoid at home. Think thousands of feathers up the wall and still being found a week later … so proceed with caution :0) ). What better way to have a pillow fight than in pajamas!  So I had some clients that loved the idea for a studio session.  I have decided to make this a series. Sometimes photographers just need a bit of inspiration, so I hope to be able to provide some fun ideas! So here is part 1, pillow fights (and pajamas of course 🙂 ). I know you will all ask about the darling pajamas these girls are wearing. They are from Beadhead Pajamas! SO cute, right??! So scroll down, see a few highlights, then click on the gallery to see even more super fun images from this darling pillow fight pajama session!  Also, stay tuned. I will keep blogging about fun ideas while shooting in a photography studio 🙂

GAH. How is Eva old enough to graduate. She will be graduating this Spring of 2026 from Saint Joseph’s Academy (Saint Joe). This hurts my brain. I have known and photographed her since she was little as I’ve known her mom a long time! I love this season I am in with who I’m photographing. […]

I discovered a hidden spot during my son’s soccer practice that would ONLY work for about 15-20 minutes AT sunset, and ONLY if there was sun. I mean…. I GUESS we could do NO sun too…. but the sunset was epic here. Actually, this was late in the season and we had to move spots, […]

This baby needs no introduction. Clearly his hair speaks for itself. 🙂 I LOVE simple newborn sessions. Each one will go totally differently depending on how sleepy they are, when they arrived, etc etc.  When photographing newborns we will do so about day 10 through about day 21 (ish).  We have many come early and […]

SO MUCH HAIR! :) Simple Newborn Shoot
