While, ideally, you want to schedule any session around meal times, this doesn't work out for everyone. Being hungry at a photo session is never a good idea. Even if you have planned your shoot to fall between meal times, it is always best to have something on hand just in case. Here are some healthy snack ideas that won’t make a mess.

• Apple slices and grapes

Fruit is always a great snack! Apples tend to not be as messy or sticky and are easy to eat. Grapes are also an easy snack to pack on the go. Frozen grapes are particularly awesome in the summer!

• Veggies sticks and hummus

For a fuss free healthy snack slice up a variety of veggies like celery, sweet peppers, carrots and cucumber and pack some hummus to dip them in. Combining hummus and veggies will help you feel full.

• Trail mix

Trail mix is a super easy healthy snack idea you can have fun with. Combine nuts, dried fruit and whole grain cereal.  Use your imagination and you can make a variety of different trail mixes to keep things interesting. 

• Whole wheat wraps

Use some small tortillas to create turkey, lettuce and cheese wraps. You can cut these into bite size portions to make it easier to eat. If want to cut back on the bread products, leave out the tortilla and wrap the cheese and turkey in the lettuce. 

• Home made muffins

Most prepackaged muffins are filled with artificial flavors, sugar and other ingredients you don't want to eat. For a healthier alternative, try making your own muffins. Banana walnut, zucchini, oatmeal raisin muffins and even apple cinnamon muffins can be made to cut back on the sugar and increase the nutritional value. Plus, muffins are easy to transport, don't need to be refrigerated and cause little to no mess aside from a few stray crumbs.
