The Booking Process
01 | Scheduling Your Session
Booking is done all online and only takes a few minutes. Read through this page, and when you are ready to book you'll click the link at the bottom of this page to:
Select your session length or project type
Pick your session date and time (newborn sessions can pick a weekday morning around your estimated due date and we will adjust as needed)
Share your contact info
Sign our agreement
Pay the first of 3 payments
02 | Prepping For the Session
Once our session is booked I'll send over a brief questionnaire to learn more about you guys and what you have in mind. I'll also send over a getting ready guide that answers most questions you might have. We're photographing your real life, so there's actually nothing you need to do, but I'll make some suggestions based on what I've learned over the years.
If you’re booking a newborn session you will let me know once your baby arrives and we will confirm that the date chosen still works, or pick a different day.
I'll check in a few days before our session to confirm. At that point if the forecast is questionable we can talk about our rescheduling options. This is also when your 2nd of 3 payments is due.
03 | The Session
The easy part!
Please be sure to block off the appropriate amount of time based on the session type you've booked... and that's it. I'll make art out of your life, as chill or chaotic as it is in this moment. There is zero pressure for anyone to perform, and my hope is that you'll simply enjoy time with your family while I tag along.
04 | The Fun Part!
Within a couple of weeks of our session you'll receive a highlight slideshow from our session, and your third and final payment is due.
As soon as that's paid you'll have access to your full gallery of images, ready to download, share, and print.
What you are going to do with your photos is the most important aspect to consider when booking a photo session, but it's so often overlooked.
All that time and money should result in more than images on a hard drive. I want your photos on your walls or in the pages of an heirloom album for you and your kids to enjoy for years to come.
