FAQ

 

WHAT KIND OF PHOTOGRAPHER ARE YOU? 

I am a natural light lifestyle photographer specializing in family, newborn and maternity. Lifestyle photography is between traditional portraiture, which is more posed, and documentary photography which isn't posed at all. My goal is to provide meaningful, real life photos that you can display as pieces of art in your home. I am not after that "one" perfect shot with everyone looking at the camera and smiling.

​

WHAT WILL MY SESSION BE LIKE?

I strive to provide a relaxed, laid-back experience focused on capturing you and your family just as you are. Lots of cuddles, hugs, and even some tickles. During the session, I will guide you into different poses, but after that?- I will ask you to love on your family and simply just be with your family. 

 

WHERE WILL MY SESSION BE HELD? 

I am a natural light, on location photographer.  Together we will choose the perfect location for your session.  Newborn sessions are held at your home.

 

WHEN DO NEWBORN SESSIONS OCCUR?

I usually like to do newborn sessions within the first three weeks of life.

​

WHEN TIME OF DAY IS BEST FOR GREAT LIGHT?

If we’re shooting outdoors, we’ll get the best light if we start our session around 1-2 hours before sunset, or just at sunrise. If your session will be in the late afternoon/evening, make sure you arrive on time, since we’ll be working against the clock to capture the golden hour light! If you'd rather opt for a later morning session, we will aim for a 9:00am time depending on the time of year. I do not shoot mid-day as the lighting tends to be harsh. If we’re shooting in your home, the best light depends on where your windows are. If you have east-facing windows, we’ll want to do a morning session; if you have west-facing windows, afternoon may be best.

 

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR? 

See this PINTEREST BOARD for ideas on what to wear. I recommend coordinating rather than matching. But most importantly: be comfortable, be yourself.

 

WILL I GET MY DIGITAL PHOTOS AFTER THE SHOOT? 

I offer one simple, all-inclusive collection where you receive all the high resolution digital files delivered via direct download and a print release. A minimum of 25 digitals files will be available to you.

​

WHEN, HOW AND WHERE DO I GET MY PHOTOS?

Within three weeks of your shoot, you will receive a link to a private online gallery. You will have one month to download your photos.

 

HOW DO YOU CHOOSE WHICH IMAGES IN MY GALLERY FROM OUR SHOOT? 

I look carefully at each and every image I capture at your session and hand select the best images.  I guarantee a minimum of 25 images, but there are usually more included.

 

DO YOU OFFER MINI-SESSIONS?

Not at this time. You can check out my facebook page for any special sessions being held.

​

DO YOU PROVIDE PROPS?

I do not use props during my sessions, however if you have something in mind, please let me know.  

 

HOW MUCH DOES ALL OF THIS COST?

My pricing is all-inclusive. You pay one price for ALL of the digital files.  A $50 deposit is due when booking to secure your session date. Check out pricing here.
