FAQ

HOW MANY PICTURES WILL WE RECEIVE?

I deliver all the best photos from my sessions. The "best" includes any photos I feel are a good representation of my work. I don't like to pick moments and don't think you should have to either.

No two galleries are the same but it is on average upwards of 50 photos per session.

*MINI SESSIONS YOU RECEIVE 25 IMAGES

HOW SHOULD WE DRESS FOR OUR FAMILY SESSION?

After booking you can always message me with wardrobe questions! Here are a few quick tips:
-Coordinate, Don't Match
-Comfort is Key
-Choose something you're confident in rather than something "trendy"
-Layer and Texture
-Avoid Logos, Busy Patterns, Bright colors
-Consider the Location (What colors will be around you?)
-Keep the Weather in Mind
-A pop of Mustard or Camel Brown will ALWAYS elevate your photos.

WHAT SHOULD I BRING TO MY PHOTOSHOOT

A good attitude, and a desire to have fun! Feel free to bring along any personal touches you'd like to have in the photos, a stuffed animal, a piece of jewelry anything that will add positivity and emotion to your photos. If you're curious if you should bring it or not send me a message we can chat about it!

Otherwise snacks for kiddos and a water bottle is always nice to have too!

WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY PHOTOS?

My turn around time varies between one week and 6 weeks depending on the type of shoot and the season. I edit all my photos on a first shot first served basis. I am only one person and I want to make sure that each client gets my best effort. I edit all the galleries with love and love can't be rushed!

WE DON’T FEEL VERY CONFIDENT IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA, IS THAT OK?

I completely understand that being in front of the camera can feel a bit daunting. It's completely normal to have those jitters. But here's the good news: my goal is to create a relaxed and enjoyable experience for you. I'll guide you every step of the way, providing prompts and gentle direction to capture the most natural and beautiful moments.

Remember, the best photos often come from authentic moments, so there's no need to worry about posing perfectly. It's about embracing your uniqueness and showcasing your real self. We're in this together, and I'm here to make you feel at ease. Let's have some fun and capture your true essence in these photographs. You might be surprised at how comfortable and confident you'll feel during our session!

DO I NEED A DEPOSIT TO BOOK?

Yes, 50% of your session is required to schedule and the other 50% is due 7 days before your session. If you're in need of a payment plan I am more than happy to work with you. Please send me a message and we can discuss options.

DO I PHOTOSHOP?

I do not. I can but it is not included in the cost of the shoot. I do edit out minor things like a light switch to make the photo more pleasing to the eye or very small details like that at no charge. I do NOT change your body or your appearance. I also will not change the clothes or do face swaps. My photos are meant to document this time in your life as it is. If you really want some of these edits performed please reach out beforehand allowing me the time to get in touch with a professional editor. Please be aware they charge per photo and I do not have any control over their prices, this will also increase the time it takes to deliver your photos as I will work with the editor BEFORE delivering your gallery.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON'T LIKE AN EDIT.

Minor tweaks and small adjustments, No Problem! If you're unhappy with anything in your photos please reach out and let me know if there is something in my power to adjust or tweak to your liking. Please understand that does not mean I will completely alter my style to fit another photographers work. This also doesn't include major edits such as photoshop, for that please read my photoshop FAQ.

DO YOU GIVE OUT RAWS? (UNEDITED PHOTOS)

No, unedited images are not an accurate representation of my work. Editing is an integral part of the process to make your photos come to life. I edit all my sessions with love and won't take the love portion out of my work.

If you would like to discuss the purchase of RAW files please reach out to me directly.

Catching a glimpse of your soul in a photo is like catching lightning in a bottle
