WHAT’S THE PROCESS?
INQUIRY & PREPARE
To secure your session, please click “BOOK NOW” and provide as much detail as possible. Our communication will primarily take place via email until two weeks prior to your session. At that point, we will transition to text messaging to finalize outfit choices and confirm the location.
Throughout our communication, you will receive my comprehensive “What to Wear Guide” and “What to Bring Guide.” Additionally, you will have the opportunity to share photos and outfit inspirations with me, allowing us to collaboratively determine the best options for your session.
SESSION DAY
The maternity photo session will begin with close-up shots of your belly. This allows you and your partner a few moments to adjust to the camera and become comfortable working with me. I maintain a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, focusing on capturing this significant moment in your life. We will explore a range of poses and different settings at our location to create a diverse selection of backgrounds for your photo collection.
I will guide you through a range of poses, positioning you in ways that allow for natural interactions, while providing prompts to eliminate any uncertainty during the session.
GALLERY / PRINTS
Approximately three weeks following your maternity photography session, you will receive a gallery link featuring all your high-resolution photos, along with a PIN for access. You can share this gallery with anyone you choose. If you have opted for an all-inclusive session, others will also be able to download your photos. This is an excellent option for sharing with family members who may live far away.
Prints can be ordered directly through your gallery, which offers a variety of package options alongside individual items. Each item is available for quick delivery.
HOW WE HANDLE THE WEATHER
RAIN DATE
When booking your date, please keep the day before or the day after available. This flexibility allows us to schedule our shoot on the day with the best weather forecast. For instance, if you select Saturday for your session, your rain date would be the following day, Sunday, at a similar time.
RESCHEDULE
In the event of inclement weather on both scheduled days, we will gladly reschedule your session at no extra cost. If you need to reschedule due to illness or an emergency, please contact us via text, and we will handle your request on an individual basis.
WHAT WEATHER REQUIRES RESCHEDULING
We will proceed with our family photography session unless there is heavy rain or an impending storm in the forecast. Sessions can continue in sunny, cloudy, or overcast weather.
WHERE DO WE SHOOT?
BEACH
Beaches can be an ideal setting for your family photo session. I focus on selecting less frequented beaches or parks with a beachfront, which provides a tranquil environment. This choice allows your family to feel more at ease during the shoot and minimizes distractions from other visitors in the background of your images.
woodland
Wildlife sanctuaries, parks, and trails provide excellent settings for family photography. The towering trees, expansive grassy areas, and vibrant foliage create stunning backdrops that enhance your family portraits. Embracing nature in your photos not only captures your family's essence but also showcases the beauty of the environment.
CITY
Downtown areas and charming neighborhoods offer an excellent opportunity to infuse a personal element into your photography. Choosing these vibrant settings not only adds character to your images but also creates a unique backdrop that can enhance the overall aesthetic of your photos.
