As time goes on and children grow, you tend to realize photographs are important now more than ever. Whether you need updated family portraits, senior portraits, branding portraits, or even pet portraits within the walls of your home, there is no limit to where a family and lifestyle session can take us.

When all payments are made and we meet up for your session, I will introduce myself, get to know you a bit more, and we will jump right into capturing this moment in time! We will converse, laugh, create, play and cultivate other fun prompts to smoothly flow all the way through your session time!
From there, I will send some favorite sneak peeks within a few days and (hopefully) have you drooling for more!
Within a few weeks, your final gallery will be sent straight to your email along with your digital print release, and as long as there is nothing else you need from me, I will continue to hope we work together again in the future - because I always do!
From the moment you inquire to the moment your gallery is delivered, I am determined to make your photography experience effortless, timeless, enjoyable, and unique to you.
Once I receive your inquiry, I will reach out to you to start discussing what you are looking for in your session! We will talk prompt preferences, your vibes, settings ideas, and pretty much all of the details to get the ball rolling.
After I have a better handle on what you are looking for in your session and you decide you are ready to book, I will send the contract and the invoice for your deposit, and we will officially secure your date. Cue the happy dance!
THE PROCESS
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Once your gallery is completed, you will receive a link in your email to your online gallery through the Pic-Time platform. From there, you will be able to access all of your images and download the gallery in both web-size and high resolution. Upon request, you will also receive a separate email with a digital print release.
You will be able to access this link in your email for the duration of time stated in the contract before the session will be archived.
Of course, if you have any questions about your online gallery or downloading your images, do not hesitate to reach out.

A pretty standard rule for all sessions is to go with neutrals and non-distracting patterns. Whites, tans, browns, blacks, light blue, and other light colors all photograph well. Clean, solid outfits are highly recommended.
It is often best to avoid polka dots, paisley, heavy floral, or any other overly distracting pattern. Colors such as reds and corals, or any other bold colors, are not recommended. These tend to take away from the clean and timeless look.
However, it is important to know that ultimately, I want my clients to feel comfortable in whatever they decide they like!
