FAQ

01. How do I book a mini session?

When booking opens, simply click the booking link for the session you'd like. You'll choose your time slot, complete your booking, and receive a confirmation email with everything you need to know before your session.

02. How do I choose the right mini session for my family?

Each mini session has its own unique feel—from barefoot beach sunsets to magical Christmas memories. If you're not sure which one is the best fit, send me a message! I'd be happy to help you decide based on your family's style, your kids' ages, and what you're hoping to capture.

03. What should we wear?

After booking, I'll send over a styling guide with tips and inspiration. My biggest piece of advice? Wear something that feels like you. Coordinating colors, comfortable outfits, and clothing that lets everyone move and play always photograph beautifully.

04. What happens if it rains?

Every session has a weather plan. Depending on the location, we'll either use a scheduled rain date or I'll be in touch with the next steps. I'll always keep you updated as the date gets closer.

05. What if my kids don't cooperate?

First of all... they're kids! I never expect little ones to smile perfectly for 20 minutes straight. We'll play games, explore, take breaks when we need to, and embrace the silly moments. Some of my favorite images happen when kids are simply being themselves.

06. When will I receive my gallery?

Turnaround times vary depending on the season, but you'll receive an estimated delivery date before your session. I know you're excited to see your images, and I always work to deliver them as quickly as possible while giving each gallery the attention it deserves.
