FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Please let me know if you have any questions about any of the below options

When do I pay you?

Yes I do! I have a whole list that we can go over when we have our consultation.

How do I pay you?

Cash, Check, venmo or cash app are all accepted. There is a $35 fee for returned checks. Payment plans are available.

Do you have any location suggestions?

For the session fee, as soon as you can after your appointment is made. For the prints, etc, when you place the order.

When are you available to have sessions?

I am available on everyday unless booked or otherwise specified. If I anything changes, I will post the information on my Facebook or my Blog.

If you have multiple children or families that will be in then photos, is there an additional charge or does the Session Fee change?

There is no extra charge for the extras. However, the session fee is $100 per family for a mini session. The session will last a little longer than 1-2 hours, you may choose 1-2 outfits, and each family will have 10-20 Proofs. A big group picture is included.

What if my little one gets sick or gets a bruise before the session?

Basic retouching is included with your session fee, so if your little one has a bump, bruise, or bug bite I can correct it. If your little one is feeling sick or suffering from any type of rash, I do require we reschedule. We want your little one to shine for their session, and no one feels like shining when they’re under the weather. I also have to avoid exposing myself to sick children so I don't pass anything on to other clients.

When should I have maternity portraits taken?

Around 32-36 weeks is ideal. That way you have a nice round tummy.

What age do you recommend my baby be for newborn portraits?

If you want true newborn portraits, we must do baby’s session before he/she is 2 weeks old, with about 1 week old being the best age. We can sometimes work with a baby up to 3 or 4 weeks old, but in general you may not be able to get those cute little scrunched up, sleepy portraits with a baby after the first week or so. Also, baby acne commonly sets in around 2 weeks old, so it’s important to get them in before that happens.

What other ages do you recommend if we miss the newborn stage?

The next age I recommend is 3-4 months old. Babies between a few weeks, up to around 3 months old do not yet have the muscle control needed to prop themselves up, or hold their head steady. And for this reason, sessions with babies in that age range can be very limiting. If you wait until baby can at least prop up on his elbows and hold his head high on his own, you can have a much better variety with your session images.

After 3-4 months I recommend a session when baby is sitting alone. Whether baby reaches that milestone by 6 months or 8 months, I always encourage you to wait until baby is sitting well on his own, instead of booking the traditional 6 month session just for the sake of his age. The milestones are so much more important to document than the number!

The 8-9 month old age is one of my favorites. At that age baby is usually sitting, laughing, crawling, and sometimes even standing with assistance. There are lots of fun things we can do with this age baby, so don’t let it pass by!

And of course, the 1 year session. Bring a cake and balloons, and celebrate baby’s first year!

Who should come to the session?

I recommend only bringing those that will be photographed to the session. I know it can be a huge help to have a friend or family member there to lend a hand, but often times that can be more distracting for the child during the session. In order to get the best images of your child, I need to be able to connect one on one with your little one and if there is too much going on around them, that can be difficult to do. So please leave the grandmas and aunts, and other siblings at home. And please leave your cameras (both still and video) at home as well.

However I do recommend that if you are having a newborn session, and have another child that you would also like included in some photos that you have someone there to help out with the older sibling. Often times with newborn sessions we have to be very quiet and walk on eggshells to keep those little ones asleep. It is completely understandable that a sibling might get a little bored during this time, so having someone on hand that can take them outside to play when they are not being photographed is a good idea.
