Frequently Asked Questions
How will I receive my photos?
Photos are delivered to your email in a protected online gallery! From there you will be able to download the full gallery or individual photos.
Do I have to order prints through you?
.Nope! You will receive all rights to your images. From there you will be able to download, print, etc.
Where are you based?
Local to Sacramento but going wherever your story takes us! The first 60 miles (round trip) of travel to the location of your choice are free. 100 miles of travel is included in all elopement & wedding packages. Travel fees start at $150
What are your turn around times?
2-3 weeks for sessions! Weddings are 6-8 weeks depending on package size, sneak peeks are included.
If the weather is not ideal for an outdoor session what happens?
If you would like to take pictures in the rain I am up for the adventure! However, if you would like to reschedule we will find an upcoming date that works for the both of us! I do not have an indoor space we can resort to on short notice.
Payment?
A 30% non-refundable retainer will be due at the time of booking to secure your time and date. That amount applies towards your total! The remaining balance will be due prior to your session. Sessions will be rescheduled if the balance is not paid in full.
Cash, Venmo, Apple Pay, Cash App, and Zelle are unfortunately not accepted at this time.
Taxes will automatically be applied into your total & will be shown during booking.
If you are on a fixed budget please include that in your inquiry and we can come up with a payment plan that works for the both of us!
Do you offer mini sessions?
I do offer limited mini sessions seasonally! They are posted to my Instagram and will be on a first come first serve basis.
I am concerned my children won’t participate for the full amount of time, can I shorten the session?
My family sessions are 1-2 hours long depending on how the session is flowing! This gives us time to walk to and from our destination, stop for feedings or snack breaks, chase squirrels, find cool rocks, and have a good time! This can be a fun outing for all! We are in no rush. However, if at any point in your session you feel you are done, you call the shots! Let me know and we will wrap it up!
I am interested in a maternity session, would it be considered a lovers, family, or portrait session?
If it is you and your partner, you can choose a lovers session! If you are adding any additional family members or children I suggest a family package! If it is just photos of the mama to be I’d suggest portraits!
I don’t know how to pose, will you help us?
That is my job! You just show up and I will handle the rest!
Can you photoshop my face/body?
I love to capture things organically for how the moment unfolds! I personally don’t photoshop or alter faces/bodies besides the occasional blemish if requested!
Can I bring my pets?
YES!! Pets are family. Big or small, I love them all.
