How Far In Advance Should I Book My Session?!

Senior and Family sessions are usually booked 2-3 months in advance. Wedding Sessions are usually booked 4-8 months in advance. Interested in setting up a date for a photo session?!

What Time Of Day Is My Session Normally Booked?!

For Senior and Family Sessions, I like shooting 7am-11am, or 1-2 hours before sunset (depending on the time of year this could be as early as 4:30pm). These times offer the best lighting. Having good weather is CRUCIAL. We may have to reschedule for the day before or after to accomadate weather condiditons. This is to ensure you get the BEST image quality and results for your photos. For Wedding sessions it is rain or shine! The amount of time is dependent on what collection is purchased.



What Should I Wear?! What Props Should I Bring?!

My photography style is to EMBRACE you and your uniqueness! Everyone has a different style of fashion and enjoys different things, that's part of the reason why I love this job. No two photos are ever the same. I highly encourage for you to bring props that you feel define you!! Prop Ideas: art supplies, instruments, books, tools, sports equipment, etc However, I am more than happy to offer suggestions to help you achieve a certain asthetic that you have in mind.



Will You Travel?!

All Collections include a base travel distance that covers up to a 60 mile radius. Anything over a 60 mile radius will be subject to a traveling rate. Having your wedding out of state or a Destination wedding? No problem!! I love traveling, and want my business to reflect that. Please provide as much information about the trip to ensure an accurate travel quote.
