Step One: Find a date & time that works for you on the "Book Now" section of my website. Don't find anything that works? Feel free to contact me using my contact form and we can find another time!
Step Two: Preparation! Between booking and your session date I am here to talk out all the details! We will find the perfect location and I can help plan outfits if you need it. Basically I am here to answer all your questions and calm your nerves.
Step Three: The session day can be stressful for so many and I totally get that. Once we meet at our time and place I will guide you through the whole process and before you know it - you will be enjoying the company of your loved ones and will forget about all the pre-photo jitters - I promise!
Step Four: Gallery delivery within 2-3 weeks of the session.
FAQ's
HOW MANY PICTURES WILL WE RECEIVE?
Depends on the shoot & the energy of the group. I won't try to upsell by withholding any images - if it's good - it's yours. All sessions are different and have ranged from 50 images to 200 for an hour family session.
HOW SHOULD WE DRESS FOR OUR FAMILY SESSION?
Above all - be yourselves & be comfortable. Start with the kids outfits and coordinate (don't match) to them. Hot tip: give the kiddos something they love and are looking forward to wearing. (Accessories, socks etc.) I'm also here to help with styling advice upon request!
WHAT’S THE BEST TIME TO HAVE A SESSION WITH A NEWBORN?
The first four weeks depending on your comfort level. Some families want the very first week, some want to wait until recovery is a little further along and they feel a little more themselves. I find two weeks is a very sweet spot - even after a c-section.
WHAT IS YOUR BOOKING & CANCELLATION POLICY?
I require a 50% deposit upon booking and the remaining 50% on the day of the shoot. If you need to cancel, we will do our best to reschedule at no additional cost within 1 year of original date.
WHAT IF MY KIDS DON'T COOPERATE?
Kids feed off our energy! If they know we're relaxing and having fun they will want to join in. If mom & dad are pressuring them to say cheese and look at the camera. They won't. Relax and let them be kids. I promise we will get some good photos of you all!
DO YOU OFFER MATERNITY & NEWBORN BUNDLES?
Yes! If you book both at once I will offer 20% off both sessions.
