I specialize in photography that tells stories. With a keen eye for detail and a decade of experience, I am dedicated to capturing the essence of families and individuals through heartfelt family portraits.
Look for more details below, but the fundamental booking process entails sharing all the necessary details, choosing a session time and location, signing a contract, and submitting a $200 non-refundable retainer.
Having your photos captured with me is akin to a relaxed get-together. Whether we gather somewhere outside or within the comfort of your home, I prioritize the children's natural flow. While we will certainly capture some classic 'everyone look at the camera and smile' shots, our time together is also about play and spontaneity! I'll provide prompts, gentle guidance, and fun activities to keep everyone engaged and enjoying the moment. So, no need to stress – it's all about having a great time!
Before our session date, we'll schedule a Sip & Smile for about 2 weeks later. I'll come to your home or we can meet up and I'll show you your beautiful new images! We can just enjoy a drink together or talk about prints, wall hangings, and albums.
Once I receive your inquiry, I will send you my pricing options and some general info about working with me. Upon selection of your package...
I will send you my calendar where you can grab the time that works best for you. If you don't see a good date/time for you, send me an email or text and we can work on other options together.
I will then send along your contract and invoice to collect a $200 deposit. Receiving both of these secures your session date and time. I will hold your place for 48 hours, so be sure to complete this step pretty quickly.
After your session is all booked, expect a couple more emails from me so we can exchange some useful info. I'll send you a questionnaire to learn more about you all and I'll share wardrobe tips and my price list for prints, wall art, and albums.
I will send you detailed tips about how to style you and your fam for our session, as well as a Pinterest board for inspiration. If you're still not sure, I'm also working on a shop-able guide and am happy to consult with you.
I know it's easy to feel like digital files are yours to do with whatever you like, but as the creator of those cherished photos, I ask that you work with me to print anything you're looking for. If it's not offered in my store with my professional print lab, I'll help you pick a quality company that ensures the photos come out the way they are intended.
Of course! I know I mention kids a lot, but family means whoever you love! Couples should also celebrate this time in your lives together! Furry friends are welcome, as well.
