Frequently Asked Questions

  • Maternity sessions are best between 29 and 32 weeks. I recommend scheduling as soon as you can to ensure you get the date that works best for you.

  • The ideal time for a newborn session is 7-10 days after birth. In order to make sure you have the best date I recommend booking as soon as possible while you’re pregnant. This gives us time to plan as well as the perfect date.

  • Weather is unpredictable but if you want the time slot I'd recommend booking sooner rather than later.

    As the session date gets closer (about a week before) I start watching the weather each day and I'll reach out if it doesn't look good.

    We then decide to reschedule, do in studio or chance the weather.

  • Mini sessions are short and offered at certain times and dates throughout the year. Often at a special location or have a theme. You choose a timeslot, pay and then sign the contract. Once all are done your booking is confirmed and you’ll receive emails with what comes next.

  • I have a variety of items including keepsake boxes, albums, accordion books, prints, digitals and canvas artwork. A detailed list of what I offer can be shared with you after booking. If you’re looking for something specific please contact me and we can discuss the item you’re hoping for.

  • There is a variety of pricing and packaging depending on what type of session you’re looking for. You can visit the portfolio page to learn more about each type of session and what packages are offered.

  • The short answer, no. I have shifted to focus on motherhood, children and the family. I have a community of amazing wedding photographers and would love to share their information with you if you’d like. Please contact me and I can share that with you. I would love to connect with you later on when you’re needing maternity, newborn or family photography.
