General FAQ
How do I book a session?
Booking is simple! Fill out the inquiry form on my website and I’ll be in touch to confirm availability. A non-refundable retainer is required to officially secure your date, with the remaining balance due before your session.
When will we receive our gallery?
Full galleries are guaranteed around 3 weeks
Where do sessions take place?
Sessions can take place outdoors at a location we choose together, in studio (i have a bunch), a combination of both for dual-location sessions or in the comfort of your home. I’ll help guide you toward the best option based on your vision and season.
What if my kids don’t cooperate?
You’re not alone—this is very normal! I approach sessions with patience and flexibility, allowing kids to be kids. Some of the most meaningful images come from in-between moments, not forced smiles.
Do you offer mini sessions?
Yes! I offer mini sessions seasonally and for special events like Mother’s Day. Minis are announced first on social media and my email list, so be sure to follow along.
How far in advance should I book?
Every season is different, but if you want to guarantee a weekend slot its better to reach out 1-3 months before.
Newborn FAQ
When should I book my newborn session?
Newborn sessions should be booked during pregnancy to ensure availability. Once your baby arrives, we’ll finalize the session date. Newborn sessions are best scheduled when baby is 1–3 weeks old for the sleepiest, most snuggly images.
What if my baby is fussy?
That’s completely okay—and expected. I allow plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and diaper changes.
How long does a newborn session last?
Newborn sessions are slow-paced and flexible, typically lasting up to 1 hour. I allow plenty of time for feeding, soothing, diaper changes, and cuddles—there is never a rush.
Maternity FAQ
When is the best time to schedule maternity photos?
The ideal time for maternity photos is between 30–36 weeks. During this window, your bump is beautifully defined and you’re typically still comfortable enough to move, walk, and enjoy the session.
Do you offer hair and makeup?
Professional hair and makeup are not included, but I’m happy to recommend trusted local artists to help you feel extra confident and pampered for your session.
Can maternity sessions be intimate?
Absolutely! We can usually fit both vibes into one session!
