If you'd like more images, you can either select additional photos individually or opt for a gallery buyout to receive every captured moment.
I don’t feel very confident in front of the camera, is that ok?
Absolutely! It’s natural to feel a little nervous in front of the camera. I’m here to guide you through the process and create a comfortable, relaxed environment where you can be yourself.
I’ll direct you with natural poses that bring out your best qualities and capture genuine moments. Together, we’ll create photos that showcase your confidence and true self.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! To make your investment more accessible, we offer flexible payment plans. We can break your total session fee into manageable installments. Let’s chat about what works best for you!
What happens if I need to reschedule my session?
Need to reschedule? We understand!
Life happens, and we get it! As long as you let us know 48 hours in advance via email, text, or call, we can reschedule your session for a mutually agreeable date and time. Your initial payment can be applied to the rescheduled session.
Missed the 48-hour window? No worries, but there's a $100 rescheduling fee, and we need to get a new date on the books within 72 hours.
No-shows, unfortunately, forfeit their initial payment.
Full terms are outlined in your session contract.
How long will it take to receive my photos?
You can expect to receive your gallery within 30 days of your session. We take time to carefully edit each image, ensuring that every portrait reflects your best self. While we aim to deliver your photos as quickly as possible, our goal is to provide you with the highest quality, perfectly polished images that you’ll love to cherish. Thank you for your patience!
Do you offer digital images and prints, or just digital?
Both! Every session includes a set number of digital images. You’ll also have access to a curated online gallery where you can order professional-quality prints, photo books, and more.
What’s the best time to have a photography session?
The ideal time for your session depends on lighting and your schedule. For outdoor sessions, we recommend the golden hour—the time just after sunrise or just before sunset—when the light is soft and flattering.
For indoor sessions or headshots, we’ll work with the available natural light or use studio lighting to create a polished look that suits you.
Let’s discuss your preferences and find the best time for your session!
What additional fees will I be charged aside from the package price?
Our packages are designed to cover most of your needs, but optional add-ons like extra shoot time or additional edited images may incur additional costs. We can also discuss travel fees if your session is outside a certain location.
Do you require a deposit at the time of booking?
Yes, we require a non-refundable initial payment to secure your session date and time. This ensures your spot in our calendar and allows us to begin planning your session with you. The remainder of the balance is due before the session.
This information will also be outlined in the session contract you’ll receive. For further details, feel free to contact us!
Do you require travel fees for sessions outside a certain location?
Travel fees apply to sessions outside a 30-mile radius. We’ll discuss travel costs during your consultation to ensure everything fits your needs.
Can I add more edited images to my package?
Absolutely! You can purchase additional edited images, either individually or through our gallery buyout option. You can also add prints to your order for a complete photography experience.
