FAQ

How many pictures will we receive?

Please look at your contract for your exact number of pictures you will receive. Whatever the amount is is what you are guaranteed to get. If I get any additional pictures you will receive them as they are yours!

What’s the best time to have a session with a newborn?

We recommend the best time to book a newborn session is between 5-14 days old. However we understand life happens and reach out to us if you are outside of that time frame and we will accommodate you!

Do I have to be casual or dressy?

You can dress as casual or as fancy as you would like for your photoshoot. If you want to wear casual clothes that is fine and if you want to wear dress clothes we are here for it! We recommend based on your location to pay mind to the shoes you chose because you may have to walk a small amount on dirt or uneven ground to get the best shots.

What should I wear?

Typically we recommend a color coordination of some sort so one thing in your pictures doesn't stand out more than the others. For example a black, white, khaki color scheme is always beautiful. Jeans and white t-shirts is another great option. If you want more ideas feel free to reach out!

We don’t feel very confident in front of the camera, is that ok?

This is completely OK! We specialize in lifestyle photography where we strive to capture the candid moments in addition to staged photos. We will make sure you are within your comfort zone while being photographed as we know it's not everyone's cup of tea.
