FAQ

 

When I should choose a mini session instead of full session?

If you want to do one location and keep it short, a mini-session will be a perfect fit.  If you're looking for a longer shoot or multiple outfits and locations, we can do a session that is up to 2 hours for $1,000.

How does the booking process work from start to finish?

You can email, text, or call me to schedule your session.  Availability is limited and based on first come, first served.  We'll agree on a time and a location and hit the ground running!

How many final images can we expect to receive?

A full portrait session includes 200 photographs.  A 30 minute mini-session will include at least 30 beautiful family portraits and individual shots of each person.

Do you offer lifestyle movies?

Along with beautiful professional portraits, you can now add a short cinematic film capturing the laughter, hugs, little personalities, and moments that make your family unique.

Imagine having a video of your kids running into your arms, hearing their laughter, and seeing those little moments you'll wish you could freeze in time.
