What is your style?

*I love shooting emotion and the everyday candid.  I love watching kids explore the location, watching couple get cozy and catching that real genuine smile.

What happens if we go over the degisnated time limit? Is there extra charges?

*Typically I shot until I’m satisfied.  Sometimes this may take less time or more time, usually about an extra half hour (I know that little kids can take more time and that some temper tantrums are unavoidable, but also make for great photos)  There is no extra fee for this.

Are you going to go out of your way to make us comfortable in front of the camera? What to expect?

*Being a model is hard, and I’m not going to lie, it’s awkward.  The first few mins are usually the most painful as you and your family get used to an intruder of personal space.  But I promise that the natural chemistry of your family will break through and with a little coaxing.  The more fun you and your family, partner or spouse have fun and let your guard down, the more amazing the photos.  I promise you won’t look “stupid”

Can we help in the creative process? Can we pick your location and give shot ideas?

*If there is a specific location you would like, of course! I know that locations and specific scenery can mean something to you.  I always ask if there are a specific shot and feel that your looking for and as long as it can be created naturally, I am happy to oblige, however please be aware that some shots cannot be re-created.  Typically I let the chemisty of the family and couple guide the shoot.

When will I get my photos?

*Typically two to four months.

Will you photoshop my images? 

*I believe in loving you as you are.  I will edit out a blemish or two, but that’s about it.

What is your retainer and refund policy?

*The retainer is non-refundable and the remaining balance can be moved to another date should there be extenuating circumstances depending on the contract.
