Question 1

Where do portrait sessions take place?

Accepted Answer

Maternity and/or Family sessions take place at different outdoor locations. We'll meet, chat a bit, and I'll take a look around to find the best lighting at our location during the time of our shoot! Then, it's a playdate! I'm not above putting a silly stuffed animal on my head to elicit a genuine laugh or blowing bubbles to help the children relax and forget about the picture-taking part of the day! Parents needn't feel pressure to get the children to sit still and smile on command for the "perfect" photo. While I love the "everyone looking at the camera picture" (and I do aim to get a couple of these), I love taking photographs that capture your true family dynamic in unposed, playful, and loving scenes.

Question 2

Where do newborn sessions take place?

Accepted Answer

Newborn sessions take place in clients' homes or in my natural light home studio with white walls and minimal props. Be aware there is a travel fee associated with any session not occuring in my home studio.
 
I bring all props, newborn backdrops, headbands, hats, etc to your home for individual images of baby. I do use your living room, master bedroom, and/or nursery for the family portion of the session and the images will be more lifestyle in nature.

Question 3

How long do photography sessions last?

Accepted Answer

Maternity: Approximately one hour or less. Newborn: Approximately 2-3 hours. Family: Approximately one hour or less. Children: Anywhere from 30-45 minutes, depending on the session and age. Please note that these are estimates, and sessions may take more or less time based on individual circumstances.

Question 4

Can my family be included in the photography session?

Accepted Answer

Family Session: Absolutely! Immediate family members are always welcome. If you'd like to include extended family such as grandparents, aunts, and uncles, please let me know, and we can discuss pricing. Maternity Session: Yes, immediate family members are welcome. For additional family members, please inform me in advance. Newborn Session: Yes, immediate family members (mom, dad, and siblings) are included. 1st Birthday Session/Milestone: This session is primarily for the baby. If you'd like to include family members, please let me know, and we can discuss pricing.

Question 5

How do I reserve a session?

Accepted Answer

You can fill out the form in my contact tab here on my website, it's the best way to get the quickest response. 
 
50% of total investment is due at the time of booking and guarantees the date and time is reserved for your session. This fee is non-refundable but it is transferable if 24-hour notice is given. In the event of unpleasant weather, the session will be rescheduled to the next available date most convenient to the client and myself.

Question 6

Do you offer a Client Wardrobe?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I offer a selection of gowns at no cost for both maternity and newborn sessions. Additionally, I have clothing available for 1-year-old boys and girls, typically for cake smash sessions.

Question 7

Do you have props and clothing/wraps for newborns?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I have quite a few wraps/outfits/bonnets/headbands etc for your new babe! You really do not need to bring anything.  For special requests, please let me know ahead of time.

Question 8

What products and prints do you provide?

Accepted Answer

Currently, no prints or products are included with sessions. However, I have connected a professional lab to your gallery, allowing you to order prints directly. These prints will be delivered to your doorstep within days. This lab closely matches the colors intended in my edits, and I highly recommend using it for the best results.

Question 9

How many pictures do I get?

Accepted Answer

This depends on the package you purchased please see each specific page here on my website for more information.

Question 10

How long does it take to receive my photos?

Accepted Answer

I usually post a sneak peek within one week. You will receive your final edited photos within two weeks after the session.

Question 11

Can I have the raw/original images?

Accepted Answer

No, I do not give raw/original images.

Question 12

Can I bring my dog?

Accepted Answer

Outdoor sessions - yes, but I can not guarantee your dog will behave, so this is at your discretion.
 
Newborn sessions- yes, but the pup will only be in the house long enough to get the couple images we need. You'll need to bring a kennel that can be placed in my backyard until the session is over.

Question 13

Can I order my images later?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can. The gallery is only active for 1 week after gallery delivery, however I store images on backups up to 1 year after the session. Remember: technology is finicky stometimes so I recommend buying all images you love. You just can't get these memories back.
