FAQs

Where are you located?

My studio is in Point Place in Toledo. For outdoor sessions, I usually recommend locations in Toledo or Oregon.

How long does it take to get our finished gallery?

For most sessions I aim for a week, but it can be closer to 2 weeks during busier times.

How long do we have to download images from our gallery?

I make your gallery available for one month from the date of upload. Please reach out before it expires if you need additional time.

What should we bring to our session?

This depends on what kind of session. For a child's birthday/milestone session I usually recommend 3 outfits, and any specific props you want to use. The same is true for a cake smash session, plus the cake and any decor we agreed on for the cake set. For an extended family session, there usually isn't time for wardrobe changes, so just bring yourselves. Please contact me to discuss specifics about a newborn or senior session.

When do you offer mini sessions?

I offer Spring/Easter mini sessions sometime around Easter, and Christmas and Santa minis in November every year. I usually offer outdoor summer and fall minis every year also. And periodically throughout the year I'll offer special themed minis, like Valentine's Day, Star Wars, Princess, Unicorn, Super Hero, etc. These are always announced on my Facebook page.

When should I reach out to schedule my session?

Normally about a month in advance is sufficient. That way you have enough time to shop for wardrobe. For a maternity session, I like to schedule for around the 35 week mark, so contact me sometime in your second trimester. For a newborn session, contact me a couple months before your due date. There is a fairly small window of time to photograph a newborn, preferably around 10-14 days old, so please don't wait to contact me until after baby is born.
