What to expect

Sessions with me are all about you! We’ll start by discussing your vision, choose the perfect location and best time of day for your family’s photos. After booking, I’ll send a questionnaire to get to know you better, followed by a customized Client Guide with tips on how to make the most of your session.

In the days leading up to the session, I’ll confirm logistics like the meeting point and weather conditions. You’ll also receive posing tips to make things feel natural and relaxed, ensuring everyone is prepared for a fun and stress-free experience!

Before your session

Family photography sessions typically last around thirty minutes, providing ample time to capture the unique essence of your family. From the moment you arrive, we'll focus on creating a joyful and relaxed atmosphere. During the session, the goal is to leave any stress behind and enjoy quality time with your family. This relaxed approach allows genuine moments to shine through, resulting in natural and heartfelt photographs that truly reflect your family's personality.

Embrace the moment, play along, and let the session unfold organically. By the end of our time together, you'll not only have beautiful photographs but also fond memories of a delightful family experience that you'll cherish for years to come.

DO YOU OFFER PHOTO EDITING
AND/OR PHOTO RETOUCHING?
While editing enhances the overall look and feel of the photo, retouching focuses on detailed, precise changes to specific elements within the image. Think of editing as "enhancing the scene" and retouching as "perfecting the details."
Photo Editing is included in all my sessions, and Photo Retouching is available by request for an additional fee per photo.

Photo Editing includes:
• Adjusting lighting, contrast, and color balance
• Cropping, resizing, and rotating images
• Applying filters or effects

Photo Retouching involves:
• Removing blemishes, scars, or wrinkles
• Smoothing skin or hair
• Removing objects or people from the background
• Advanced manipulation of the image

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS ON
OUR SCHEDULED SESSION DATE?

DO I HAVE TO ORDER PRINTS THROUGH YOU?
No.
