BOOKING A SESSION
All sessions require a non-refundable retainer, which will be applied to your package cost. For family sessions, your session fee is good for up to 5 people in the same immediate unit/family. Extended family members may be added to family sessions booked for $10 per person. For seniors, a session fee is good for one person. Each package includes the high-resolution digital files.
Best ways to reach us are, you can shoot me an email or give me text. We will discuss all the specifics of what you are looking for with your photo session. Some things we will cover are what type of photos you’d like (senior, family, etc), what location you are interested in Out door location or in studio , when is the best time for your photos, and pricing package . I’ll compile all this information in a convenient email and contract and send it your way. The email will also include information such as the details of the session, how to pay, help on what to wear, and a few other information. A Square invoice with fee , cash app Free of fee, Facebook Pay free of fee Or Venmo with fee will follow, however, you are welcome to pay with cash or check (all payment is due one week before your session). Once the non-refundable retainer, which will be applied to your package cost is paid, your session is booked. I book 4-6 weeks in advance, and I am booking as far out as needed (especially for weddings). Fall and spring weekend sessions go very quickly, and are often booked several months in advance, so it is never to early to get your session date reserved. Edited photos are available no later than most times than 2 weeks of your session on your private gallery for your selection print check is about a week and 6-8 weeks for a wedding Mailing of your drive will depend on selection of your photos for your flash drive.. Photo amounts are per package and upgrades for one flat fee for additional photos are available..
YOUR PHOTO SESSION
Photo sessions vary in time per session . We will meet at the selected location at the scheduled time, go over any special photo requests or needs you have, and then get shooting! For outside locations ,We will do lots of different poses, backgrounds, and walk around our location to get new perspectives. I try to keep things relaxed, talk about you and your family, and try not to make it all about posing or stiff smiles. I like to capture the candid moments just as much as the smiling-at-the-camera moments. I’m happy to accommodate any fun posing ideas you have, or any props you’d like to incorporate. At the end of the session, I’ll answer any last questions and then we’re all finished! The following are a couple tid bits of information that can make your photo experience more enjoyable:
-
If you have young children, feel free to bring anything that will keep them happy (e.g. snacks, juice, favorite toy, etc.).
-
Please remember the weather. If it is hot, you may want to bring a water bottle; cold, maybe a jacket between shots.
-
Please feel free to bring any props that you find fun (I’ve had people bring sunglasses, hats, bicycles, signs, dogs, and even horses!).
-
If you are planning a clothing change, remember that it may need to be done in the car as many locations are remote.

It normally takes about no more than 2 weeks of your Edited session to be put on your private gallery for your selection print check is about a week print check is about a week a and 6-8 weeks for a weddings..
