What sessions do you offer?

-Families
-Motherhood (Mommy & Me)
-Couples
-Seniors

What time do you do sessions?

I do all of my sessions 30 mins- 1 hour before sunset depending on the length of the session. This makes for the best lighting and consistent with my work.
Nap times / bed time may have to be adjusted the day of to make sure kiddos are happy and ready for the session.

How many photos do we get?

Each package offers a different amount of digital edited photos. I always offer extra digitals at additional cost, if you'd like to purchase more.

What should I wear?

Once you book, I will help with styling and figuring out the vibe you're going for.
I will help you coordinate colors, patterns, textures and outfits. I also have a client closet where I have some dresses for woman S-3XL.
As well as some girls outfits up to 7/8. (Just ask)

How do we get our photos?

I email you a link to an online gallery. Your finished edited photos go into the online gallery. From there, you'll be able to download your set of photos, all at once or you can down them individually.

What is your turn around time?

Full galleries will be delivered in 3 weeks via email. I try to always update you as I am in the editing process, and before I email them or upload them on Facebook.

How do we book you?

Message me on Facebook! That's my main form of communication.

What if my kids don't like to take photos?

As a mom of two - I totally get this. I go with the flow and follow the lead of your child(ren). If they're quiet and shy, we will get lots of good snuggle pictures. If they're loud and like to run around, we will play small games and get lots of them exploring. I want to showcase their real personalities!

How far out do you book?

I book throughout the whole year.
As long as your retainer is paid, I will hold your spot until your session. I generally book in spring, summer and fall.

Should we bring any props?

You can bring a cute blanket or hat. Cute bows for your littles. I don't typically do "set ups" as I prefer less posed shots.

Do you travel // locations?

I shoot in Columbia generally, it is a central area for most of my clientele. I try to shoot in the locations I scout and pick. I am familiar with these places and they work for my style and editing. If you have a special request, just reach out and we can discuss that. If I travel further than 30 miles outside of Centralia, I require additional traveling fees.

What happens if it rains? Bad weather?

I have days put aside in my calendar for reschedules. A few days prior to our session I will keep an eye out on the forecast and we will keep in touch, in case we may need to reschedule.

Do you retouch photos?

I do some skin smoothing and will retouch dirt, small marks and blemishes here and there. I generally don't remove scars or something natural. If you want a scar or something else specifically removed, please consult with me before the session.
