All galleries are public unless you choose to have them protected by a password.
How long are galleries viewable?
Galleries are viewable for up to 30 days and can be recovered after deletion for a nominal fee.

What's your shooting style?
I am a lifestyle portrait photographer, my preference is natural light and my style is geared towards capturing real moments! This means getting you interacting rather than posing, and having a fun time because that's where the magic happens. Check out our portfolio to see if we're a good fit!
What if my kids won't engage?
That's okay! Some children are shy or have a hard time posing which is why we forget posing and just get you all hanging out and loving on each other, you just enjoy the moment and I'll worry about the photos. We guarantee you'll love your photos!
Can I cancel/reschedule my session?
After booking, deposits are non-refundable as I am holding the day for you and turning away other clients. If you need to reschedule please contact us three days in advance and reschedule within a week or a $100 rescheduling fee may apply.
Can I pick my location? Are your sessions indoor or outdoors?
All session locations are chosen by collaboration with you to bring your unique vision to life. Indoor or outdoor, we will make it happen!
What happens if it rains?
No need to worry if your shoot day gets rained out — we can either select an alternate location or reschedule on a day that fits you. Or we always can splash around in the rain! I keep a number of backup dates open in case of bad weather, and there's no fee to reschedule to a new date if it's raining. The weather can be unpredictable, so we can reschedule up to the night before.
How long is a typical photo shoot?
Depending on your vision, type of session, and the number of locations, the term can be anywhere from a fast 30 minutes to a full day of adventures where I tag along and document the action. Our sessions time will start within 15 minutes of our agreed-upon start time and should end within the same 15-minute increment.
When should I book?
Booking well in advance is recommended, my current wait times for session openings are around 2 weeks but cancellations do happen once in a while.
