Do you offer discounts?

The pricing is setup so that you get a better value, the more you spend. For instance, if you purchase premium artwork, you will save $175 on all your digital files. Basically, investing in prints or artwork saves you money!

Do you provide clothing for your sessions?

We have a maternity closet.. and a baby closet. We also carry a a few things for children including boys. For newborns, we provide EVERYTHING.. including accessories and props. The wraps and clothing that we provide for newborns is specifically tailored for their little bodies and it’s soft on their delicate skin. So we do prefer to use our items for photography. Make sure to ask about an item that you are bringing to make sure it will work for photographic purposes.

How long is a session?

1-3 hours depending on the type of session. Maternity and newborn take longer to allow time for changing and feeding. Child and family sessions usually take 45-1 hour. Shooting time is based on once we achieve a full gallery. So it could take less or more time depending on the circumstances.

Do you retouch my newborn’s skin? He/she has acne or flakiness…

Yes, all newborn’s skin is retouched as part of basic retouching. Additional editing requests may apply. Printed artwork will receive all necessary and possible editing free of charge.

How long does it take for my viewing appointment?

Editing can take 2-3 weeks based on the volume of our business at the time. If you need images back by a certain date, please keep this in mind. We usually book 2 months in advance and 4 months in advance during fall and Christmas. You will view your portaits at a Zoom appointment.

How many images do we receive?

All packages come with 20 digital files with options to upgrade to more. Maternity session packages start at 10 digital files. We shoot average 35-50 images on any given session.

How long does it take to receive my artwork?

Prints and custom cards take a few days. Wall art and custom albums take about one week. Custom framing takes 4 weeks.

When do you photograph newborns?

We ask that you call us when you get home from the hospital. We will then schedule your appointment within the next week. We prefer to photograph newborns 5-10 days old but there are a lot of factors with any pregnancy and delivery.

I did not realize that there was a preferred newborn window and my baby is older than 2 weeks. Can you still photograph my baby?

Absolutely!! We may modify certain poses to accommodate your baby’s ages. We NEVER turn down an “older” baby, you still need photos of this precious time and we are trained to handle older babies! 🙂

My images are watermarked, will you remove that?

After you have paid for your package… the downloaded files will not have a watermark. If you upgrade to all of your files, you also get the slideshow. The watermark will be removed from that as well!

Is hair and makeup included?

You can ADD hair and makeup services. This can take up to 2 hours but we will prepare you in advance on how long it will take.
