Where are you located and where will our session be?
I'm rooted in Fort Worth, Texas but I serve all of DFW and surrounding areas. I will confirm your location 1week before your shoot. If you have a spot in mind we can shoot there or I have several hidden spots and locations that I can recommend as well. My go-to locations are here. We will brainstorm on a look that you're going for, and I will work to find a spot that's perfect for you.
What time will our session be?
My schedule is dependent on the sun's schedule. The absolute best time for shooting is 90 minutes before the sun sets, and I schedule my sessions accordingly. If you'd rather do a sunrise session, I'm game for that too!
What happens if it rains the day of our session?
If the weather is gross we will coordinate and reschedule your session. I would never penalize you for the weather. If it's overcast, I can still shoot - but if you'd rather wait for sunshine, that's okay too!
What can I expect at our session?
Aside from themed mini sessions and cake smashes, I don't bring a lot of props. I want your session to be focused on you and your loved ones. I usually show up with a crate for kids to sit on, and a quilt for family portrait's. I strive for natural interactions, genuine smiles and loads of laughter. I want your session to be authentic to you and your family. Sessions will start with posed portraits and then we'll ease into the more lifestyle images.
How do I book a Mini Session?
I only offered themed Mini Sessions - and they are on a set schedule. I open bookings at 9am on the sign-up date. I open sign-ups to my mailing list AND Facebook VIP group FIRST. (these are open to everyone, so please add yourself!) Some of my mini's (like Santa) go really, really fast - so set your alarms if there is one that you really want! You can get the FULL scoop on my Mini Sessions (including what minis are coming up, pricing, and how to book) here!
What's in your camera bag?
I shoot with two cameras at all sessions; Canon Mark IV and my Canon 6D. They could have either of these lenses attached: 70-200ii, 100mm, 85L, 50L, 35ART, or 15mm. All completely different types of glass to give you tons of variety in your gallery. I also carry an Expodisc, reflector, three speedlites, extra batteries, memory cards, and a step stool.
When will I receive my images?
Portrait session images will be ready for download 4 weeks after your session date. All portrait sessions are delivered through an online gallery, you can opt to purchase a customized USB for 25.00. All wedding galleries are delivered 8 weeks after your wedding.
What happens if I didn’t download my images in time?
If you're looking to have your gallery resent after it expired - you can pay that fee right here. Once you've sent the $25 retrieval fee, send me an email with your order# and I will have the gallery resent within 24 hours. (If your gallery is older than 6 months, please e-mail me before you send payment)
Do you carry insurance?
Absolutely, just holler if you/venue needs proof.
