SESSION INFORMATION

Throughout the session I photograph a mixture of photojournalistic and traditional styles. I want you relaxed, having fun, and showing your true self. Some images you'll be looking at the camera, some you won't, some you'll be smiling, some you won't, A variety is GOOD.

When should I schedule my Session?: As soon as possible! The appointment book fills up quickly. You are more likely to get the day and time you want by booking early. Our shooting days are TUESDAYS, FRIDAYS, AND SUNDAYS. Recommended is 3-5 weeks out. Please call for all the area high school deadline dates.

What happens if it rains? One of the great things about scheduling in plenty of time is that if it does rain, we have wiggle room to reschedule. If it's just a chance of rain or misting we may still do it. We would communicate the day before and decide.

The session fee is due when you reserve your appointment, via credit card on the phone. We cannot hold appointment times without prepayment. See "Investment" for more information. When you are at the studio in person we accept Cash, check or card.
What should we wear?: Prior to your session we'll connect to discuss clothing and ideas. I have a Session Tips PDF on here that you can read.

Seniors-- Bring your favorite outfits, something you might not wear anywhere else, go for it , it's your senior pictures! We recommend you bring 4-6 outfits on hangers depending on what session you choose. Feel free to bring sporting equipment, musical instruments, hats, hunting, equestrian, anything that shows who you are. We will provide the drape and pearls for the girls and tuxedo for the guys. Arrive 5 to 10 minutes before your appointment time, no sooner because we may be still in a session. When you arrive at the studio bring all your things inside with you and we'll hang them up in the dressing room. Come dressed with your first outfit already on. And girls have your make-up and hair done before you come in. Most of all remember to have fun and show your personality.

Clothing selection is very important. Choose clothes that flatter you. There will be a wide variety of poses, so bring clothes that you can easily move around in. If you are unsure of an outfit, bring it and we'll decide together.

The following are only suggestions: Long sleeve, dark, solid color top. Bright colors look fabulous. Pay attention to undergarments that show, if an outfit makes you feel subconscious about anything, then you probably shouldn't wear it, bring outfits you feel terrific in!

Bring something trendy you love. Something outside the box. Something you’d wear on a date or out with friends. Stylish and contemporary. This is your chance to show your style, express yourself and shine!

What about make up?

We suggest you apply your make-up as if you’re going on a date. Apply it a little heavier than normal, as studio lights may wash out facial features, Applying make-up a little darker will help make your final images look amazing. Even if you typically don't use makeup, wear some for your shoot, you'll be glad you did. Please have your make-up done before arriving at the studio so you can really take your time, and not be rushed during precious shoot time.

Bring Accessories! You favorite things. Some examples are: boots, scarves, jewelry, hats, fur, just to name a few.

Please bring your clothing on hangers so they are not wrinkled when you change into them.

Children--Keep it simple! Avoid logos and busy patterns when choosing your child's clothing. I like to encourage vivid colors and textures, as well as creamy beautiful neutrals. I love and recommend bare-feet. Other good choices are jeans or Khakis. After you have booked the appointment I would love to give you my cell # and you can send me a picture of the outfit, this way I can think about what we'll do BEFORE you get there. If children are being photographed together it's better that they wear coordinating colors they don't have to match exactly, just compliment each other. Please feel free to bring along favorite items, fun accessories, such as hats, scarves, toys, blankets, etc...

Pets- Have your dog groomed and looking their best. Bring a cute collar or an outfit if you'd like. Try to hold off on treats until after the session, it may wind up being our bribery.

Family-- It's best to keep consistentancy. same length sleeves, same color bottoms. Denim or Khakis make great choices. You do not have to match, but at least have the colors harmonize with each other. For instance if you choose brown, multiple shades of brown will be fine maybe adding tan, beige and mix and match within all being photographed. Choosing 2 or 3 colors is super nice. Try not to wear white, it may work fine for beach photographs but not otherwise. Our eye is drawn to the brightest part of a photograph, so if you're wearing white, your shirt will get noticed more than your face, and we want all the faces to be what stands out most in the photographs.

Couples-- Be comfortable. Dresses and skirts are fine and look great, but we will do some floor shots so be mindful of the length and comfort of your clothes.
When do I see my images?: The images will be ready for you to view as soon as a few days to 2 weeks after your session.

During the photo session we'll make your follow up appointment for you to come back into the studio to view the images, design your products and place your order.

Please bring any decision makers to the ordering/design appointment. Orders will be placed at this time.

We will be happy to schedule a second ordering session for you if needed, However, because of the extra time involved a $40.00 charge will apply to set up another appointment to view the images again. (sometimes this is needed in a divorce situation) Also, we have learned that, when returning for a viewing/ordering appt, it is best to make arrangements for child care so you can focus on making decisions without interruption and stress.

The digital files are kept archived for 30 days from your order session date. Files not ordered from the viewing/ordering session will be purged. High school senior files are kept all school year. For all other sessions, pictures that you have ordered will remain on file for 6 months. In order to maintain our level of quality and consistency, the entire order must be placed at the view/ordering appt. Don't worry, I'll walk you through the entire process.

One thing you can do to help it along is to have a list of family and friends you'd like to purchase gift prints for. Also taking some snap shots of some areas in your home that you'd like to put wall art. This is extremely helpful so I can get a visual of your spaces. Some suggestions are: Above a fireplace, over the sofa, hallways, in the foyer, the game room in the basement, your bedroom, the kids bedrooms.
Copyright: The images from all of our session are copyrighted. Prints and products are only available through our studio. The prints you receive are of professional quality and caliber. Please do not attempt to copy them in any way. They are very low resolution and will produce poor results. I ask that you respect my copyright and my art and order prints or digitals.
How long will my order take?: Once you place your order, your final prints will be ready in Approx. 3-6 weeks. Specialty items may take longer. This is the time I need to meticulously retouch all images you order, design your products, place order from 1 or more labs I use and have everything ship back to me. Then there's mounting and framing and packaging before they are ready to go it their forever home.
