Frequently Asked Questions

How do I book a session?

Once you submit a 'Book a Session' I will receive it and get back to you to confirm availability within 48 hours of your inquiry.


Once availability is confirmed, I will send you a contract for my services explaining all policies and services and an invoice. The deposit (50% of the total session cost) is due when signing the Photography Services Agreement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I expect after booking a photoshoot and signing a contract?

Now that we have your session confirmed, we come to one of the most important steps: planning the details.  We can have a planning session via Zoom, message chat, or a phone call, and using that conversation, I will create a mood board for your session to make sure to give you photos you are excited about and love that match your expectations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I bring with me?

You really don’t need to bring anything to your session unless we’ve discussed something specific ahead of time. That said, props can be such a fun way to make your photos feel more personal and unique. During our planning conversation, we can talk through ideas, locations, and any special items you may want to include so we can make sure everything comes together perfectly for your session.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I cancel or reschedule a session?

To reschedule a session, provide at least 24 hours advance notice for the original deposit to be applied toward the rescheduled session. If you cancel a rescheduled session, the deposit shall be forfeited in its entirety.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I'm running late to our photoshoot?

I get it, we've all been there and run late before, and communication is always key in these situations. If you are running late, please give me as much notice as possible.  I allow a 10-minute grace period window and beyond that the session may be canceled and deposit forfeited.

In the event of a no call/ no show, the deposit will be forfeited, and I will not schedule future sessions with that individual.

Frequently Asked Questions

I don't know what to do in front of a camera. Do I need to come with poses ready?

I describe my photography as documentary-inspired, which means less posing and more playing. Don’t stress about looking perfect. That’s my job. I will have some prompts and fun poses, and make sure you look your best in the process!


If there are specific poses or inspiration for your photoshoot, I'm more than happy to incorporate them at your request.
