{Information for Clients}
First and foremost, thank you for considering me for your photography needs! It will be my pleasure to be a part of the sweet moments in your life! The best part of my job is to watch my youngest clients grow up right before my eyes!
When you think about hiring me, please make sure I fit your style! I want to be the perfect photographer for you while we create a one-of-a-kind experience! I know that finances play a large part when considering who to hire, so I try to stay as affordable as possible. I would never ask you to pay for something I wouldn’t be willing to pay for myself! Professional portraiture is often times an investment and I do offer convenient payment plans if your session price is just a little out of your reach at the time. A contract would then be made up and an agreement would be determined. Contact me personally to find out how we can create a plan customized just for you!
I am looking forward to being your photographer and creating priceless memories with you!

About your Session!
- I require all session fees to be paid before the session. I also ask that you give me at least a 48 hour notice for a cancellation or reschedule. basic sessions come with a disc of 25-50 edited images on it.
- The deposit covers your time slot & is non-refundable. Your deposit is not a part of your session fee and will not be applied to the balance owed unless specified in conversation between the client and myself. Should there be a scheduling conflict, we can agree on another time & location for a re-shoot.
- If you are more than 15 minutes late for your session and you don't make an effort to contact me and let me know you are running behind, you will automatically lose your session time. That time is specifically reserved for you.
- Please feel free to bring any sort of props or anything that you would like to have in your pictures. Dress comfortable and please make sure everyone is wearing exactly what you want them to wear. you are allowed outfit changes with most packages so please be sure to have everything with you.
- basic editing is done on all images. for more detailed editing, slimming of the waist, double chin or other areas, there is an additional fee. please contact me for detailed information.
- If you have any other questions or possible concerns, please feel free to let me know! I am here to give you the best I can!
Newborn Sessions!
- With my newborn sessions, I prefer for them to be under 2 weeks old.
- Please bring plenty of formula. If breast feeding, please pump a couple of extra ounces or be prepared to nurse off and on during the session.
- please allow up to 3-4 hours for this particular session. sometimes, newborns are difficult to settle down!
- If your session is going to be at my home, please do not bring a lot of people with you! just the parents and siblings are preferred.
- Don't get upset if you baby isn't cooperating! If your little one is becoming difficult to settle down, just relax! I am in no rush to make him/her go to sleep and there are plenty of great shots I can get while they are awake.
- Please stay close to your child to act as a spotter while we are taking pictures. SAFETY FIRST!
- when you book your session, please let me know then if you have ideas or props that you would like to use.
- I am proud to offer my props for your sessions and they come from a drug/smoke free home and they are sanitized and washed before each session.
- If you have any concerns or questions, please let me know!
