You'll never catch me asking you to "say cheese"

Kids Are Going to be kids.

Sometimes it takes time.

Shy kiddos, sassy toddlers, snarky preteens, sarcastic seniors... there's a million different personalities and some of them just take time.
I let your child set the tone and the pace.
If they come in bouncing and chatting and full of energy our session is likely going to fly with tons of great personality packed images.
If they come in nervous, shy and reserved we can take it slow, keep things low key and gradually ease into things, getting loads of sweet and gentle images.

I can wait.

Your child comes first

I can wait.

If your little one needs soothed, I can wait.
If your kiddo needs a snack, I can wait.
If your baby wants to nurse, I can wait.
If your child has big feelings to work through...
I. Can. Wait.
Their needs come first.


The Process


01.


Schedule a session


When you reach out, we'll determine what sort of session you're interested in and then get things scheduled.



02.


Planning & Prepping


I'll get to work right away, asking questions and pulling together your set ups, props, and communicating wardrobe options. I'll also send you a prep packet that includes all the info you'll need for a smooth session.



03.


The Shoot



The day of the shoot I'll make sure everything is ready before you arrive. Once you get to the location or studio, we will make sure any relevant papers are signed (no surprises, you'll have gotten them when we scheduled!), I'll collect your session fee, and we'll get tons of great shots.



04.


Gallery



In the next couple days you'll get a couple watermarked preview images, then within about two weeks you'll get your full watermarked & passworded proofing gallery. This is when you'll choose your package and I'll walk you through how everything works.
