FAQ
Q - What is a photography session like?
A- I strive for laid back, stress-free photo sessions. I just ask that you come ready to be yourself and make some new memories with your family. At the beginning of your photoshoot, I will start with the typical smiling pictures, then the remainder of the session will consist of lots of playful, joy-filled candid photos. You will never have to wonder where to look or what to do, I will always coach you and your family!
Q - What are mini sessions?
A - Mini sessions are small photo sessions booked back-to-back on the day and location of my choosing. They can not be booked independently. Mini sessions allow me to serve a lot of clients at once, saving me time in scheduling and driving, which allows me to offer them at a lower price. Minis are typically 15 minutes each with 10 included images. This is a great option for families looking for just a couple of images.
Q - How extensively do you edit our photos?
A- I edit with a bright, warm, and light editing style that is timeless. I edit to correct color, exposure, and basic retouches including small blemishes, stray hairs, and whatever else I view as artistically necessary. You can rest assured I spend a lot of time editing each family's gallery! From time-to-time I get more extensive editing requests, which we can discuss on a case by case basis.
Q - Do you photograph weddings?
A- I do not currently photograph weddings. I love to focus my efforts on families!
Q - What is your availability?
A- I have a booking calendar that I keep up to date! I primarily schedule photoshoots on weekdays to reserve weekends for time with my family.
