Having been a first grade teacher and mom, I know that genuine emotion gets the best photographs. Which is why I work so hard to make my sessions fun for the whole family. We play games, laugh, tickle, and have a good time. I like to get candid genuine, emotion in my photographs so when you look back, you remember the way it felt and not the way you were posed. So if you're worried about being "posed" or looking awkward, don't!
