A full session is built around your schedule and needs. It is about 30-45 mins and provides more images than a 15 minute mini session. The location is flexible and I do not have shoot directly before or after you giving us less pressure.
Full sessions are great for those once a year updates. They can be your immediate family, extended family, or just the kiddos.
Mini sessions are basically bite sized versions of a regular session. They are smaller in time, provide fewer images, and have a fixed date, location, and theme (holidays, mom+me, etc). They are about 10-15min long. They are perfect for a few great shots and many people do these several times a year.
If you have more specific date + time, a large group, or a last minute need, a full family session is suggested.
A newborn session is done in your home after you and the baby are home. We can pencil in this appointment at anytime during your pregnancy and set a firm date after the baby arrives. I suggest holding the session before 3 weeks of age. Parents and siblings are included, a wardrobe guide is provided, and there are packages to choose from to suit your needs and budget.
For outdoor sessions, I like to shoot at the end of the day after 3pm. This lends to less harsh shadows and cooler temperatures.
Since mini sessions are a little different time wise, please choose a time that is best for your family. Avoid nap time if possible and brings some snacks in the car. Well fed children (and partners) are ideal!
For bad weather, I will make the call if we need to reschedule. Cloudy is actually an amazing time for a session. Drizzle and rain, not so much.
We will coordinate our schedules to come up with an alternative date.
Same for sickness. No one wants to do a photoshoot when then are not feeling well. Me included.
Refunds will not be given. If a new time + date cannot be agreed upon (which by the way has yet to happen) I will issue a credit to be used in the next 6 moths.
