Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
We offer 30 and 60 minute sessions. A 30 minute session gives you plenty of time to capture a gallery with variety, and it is easier to work around in your schedule. 60 minutes is available if you have a group of 8+ or want more time.
Browse available sessions on your preferred market or location page, pick a date and time that works for you, and click 'Book this time.' You'll be taken to our booking page to confirm your details and pay.
We recommend coordinating colors rather than matching exactly. Earth tones, soft pastels, and muted jewel tones photograph beautifully outdoors. Avoid large logos, neon colors, and busy patterns.
Absolutely! Pets are part of the family. Just let us know ahead of time so your photographer can plan for a few pet-friendly poses. We recommend bringing treats and a favorite toy.
Your color-corrected photos will be delivered to an online gallery in 5 business days. From there you can download, share, and print.
