Frequently Asked Questions

I use high-quality professional photography equipment including cameras, lenses, lighting, and other accessories to ensure that your photos are of the highest quality.

I currently use a Canon 5D Mark IV with a range of lenses from wide angles to capture the beautiful scenery at the location to lenses that will help capture the smallest of details.  For indoor photos, I have professional lighting as well as backdrops and speedlights to capture movement.  Check out my dance photos to see what I mean!

I understand that being in front of the camera might feel a bit unfamiliar, but worry not! I'm here to guide you through every step of the process. From suggesting poses that accentuate your best features to providing on-the-spot adjustments, I'm dedicated to ensuring you feel confident and comfortable throughout the session.  I am also happy to send ideas and/or share a board on Pinterest where we can both share posing ideas that I will reference and use as inspiration during your session.

My turnaround time varies depending on the type of photography service you require. For portrait sessions, we typically deliver photos within 1-2 weeks. For weddings and events, it may take up to 4-6 weeks. However, we always aim to deliver your photos as soon as possible while maintaining the highest quality standards.

Yes!   The right clothing choices can truly elevate the visual appeal and mood of your images. 

Coordinate, Don't Match!  Instead of everyone wearing the exact same color, aim for coordinate outfits that compliment each other.

Classic Colors. Neutral tones and solid colors tend to work well as they keep the focus on you.  Pastels, earth tones and soft hues create a timeless look.

Avoid Bold Patterns.  Busy patterns can sometimes be distracting and take away from your presence in the photo.  Opt for subtle patterns or solid colors instead.

Layers and Textures.  Adding layers and textures can bring depth and dimension to your photos.  Scarves, cardigans or accessories can really help enhance your style.

Dress for the location.  Think about the setting of your session.  Natural outdoor location, earthy tones might complement the surroundings.  A more urban environment, contemporary or sophisticated clothing could work best.

Comfort is Key!  Choose outfits that make you feel confident and comfortable.

*Remember, these are just suggestions to help you make the best choices for your photography session. Feel free to express your personal style and bring outfits that resonate with you. 

I absolutely adore furry companions and understand how they're an integral part of your family. Many of our clients have brought their dogs to their sessions, resulting in heartwarming and memorable photos. 

However, whether your dog can join the session depends on the location we choose. Some outdoor settings are incredibly dog-friendly and can provide a natural, relaxed atmosphere for both you and your four-legged friend. In these cases, your dog's presence can truly enhance the photos, capturing the authenticity of your bond.

On the other hand, certain indoor or controlled environments might have limitations regarding pets due to factors like space and regulations. Our priority is to ensure a safe and comfortable experience for everyone involved, including your pet.

Let's have a chat about the potential locations for your photography session. This will help me determine which ones are best suited for including your furry companion.
