Once you’ve booked, we will collaborate on a session location that’s just right for you – whether that be urban, rural, or in my Noblesville studio. Special location requests (outside Indianapolis or Hamilton County) are welcome and may be subject to travel fee.
Once you’ve booked, I’ll send a welcome guide with details on preparing for your session, as well as wardrobe tips to help you create a cohesive and coordinated look for your images. For now, keep in mind it’s important to make sure everyone is well rested and well fed for photo shoots. And, above all, be prepared to have fun and interact with your loved ones.
Although I don’t have any magic answer or guarantee for your littles’ behavior, I have plenty of experience and ideas to charm kids to be on their best behavior and really shine. Flexibility and patience are key. As the parent, you just need to keep smiling. Littles tend to reflect their parents’ energy, so if you are happy and having fun, the whole family will follow suit. Typically, kids seem to be quiet and reserved at first, which is when I try for the “grandma” pose (usually Grandma’s favorite image where everyone is looking at the camera and smiling together), since the kids can be held and comforted, tickled, etc by parents. Then we work towards more candid moments of you and your kids interacting and having fun together. At some point in the session, it is important for you to step back so I can get your kids complete attention for individual poses as well.
I want your images to represent your best you! This means that I try my best to edit out minor blemishes only. Extensive retouching is quoted upon request.
Sneak peeks of at least one session image are usually posted within one week of your session.
Your final image gallery for digital download will be delivered about three weeks after your session. Your heirloom image box should arrive within two weeks after your gallery delivery.
