I aim to return portrait session photos (graduation, family, engagements, etc.) within 2-4 weeks and wedding package photos within 4-6 weeks. This timeframe ensures that each photo is edited to the highest standard, providing you with stunning, professional-quality images.

I recommend booking a time slot an hour before sunset for the best lighting. Depending on the month and weather, this can be anywhere between 5-9 PM. On a cloudy day, any time throughout the day would be fine! On a sunny day from March - June and from August - September, 6-8 PM would be ideal. On a sunny day from June - August, 7-9 PM would be ideal.

I recommend saving your favorite poses from Instagram, Pinterest, Google Images, etc., and practice them to ensure a confident session! Don't worry if you're camera shy - I will help guide you with pose ideas too. If you'd like props in the photos, make sure to bring them. This includes items like champagne for graduation champagne spray photos.

Yes, of course! Just email me with your specific needs. I am happy to photograph portraits, events, weddings, and more outside of the listed packages.
