FAQ

Booking is a breeze! When you’re ready to secure your spot, simply click the booking link, which will whisk you away to my availability calendar. There, you can choose from the available session times that suit you best. Afterward, it’s just a matter of filling in your details and making a non-refundable retainer fee payment of $250 to lock in your time slot.

Once that’s done, keep an eye on your inbox for a confirmation email – and voilà, we’re all set!

To ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience, please aim to arrive at least 10 minutes before your scheduled session time, fully dressed and prepared for photography. Each session is set to run for a strict 20 minutes, with multiple sessions scheduled consecutively on the same day. Punctuality is crucial to avoid any disruption to the next family’s session or the risk of missing your spot entirely.

I’ve got you covered with my ‘What to Wear and How to Prepare Guide’ specifically for your Christmas Mini Session. The guide includes outfit suggestions, color schemes, and tips to make sure everyone looks their best.

Leading up to your session day, feel free to revisit your booking to adjust your session time (subject to availability) or cancel your session altogether. Please note that the retainer fee is non-refundable, but can be transferred to another session, provided it is used within a year from the original session date.

Don’t worry I’ll be there to guide you through the session and provide various prompts to ensure we capture beautiful, natural moments.

The best photographs are the ones that are not posed. In fact, I will rarely ask you to look into the camera. Pay attention to the people you came with. Play with your kids, hug the people you love, talk to one another, laugh, goof around, and do what you usually do. Take a deep breath and enjoy the experience! Our photo session is all about having fun!
Parent tip: If you want to optimize the outcome of your photo session with kids, it’s worth considering shifting their nap time to later in the day or booking a session for a time of year when the days are shorter.
