Frequently Asked Questions
When should I reserve my session?
Do your sessions include wardrobe?
When and where do sessions take place?
How much do sessions cost?
What is the process of booking with you?
I recommend reserving your session as soon as you know you want to have one. Creative editing takes about two weeks, so if you are reserving a session for a specific date or holiday and want your photos returned to you by a certain date, please plan for that.
The best time to shoot if you want green backgrounds would be right after the rain, between April and June. After June our grass here in SoCal dries out and you will have dried backgrounds.
If you want holiday card photos and want to shoot closer to fall, I recommend shooting between August and September as sunset times are late and temperatures are still moderate.
During the months of October and November you can expect it to be very hot and shorter sunset times are we get closer to daylight savings. After November we typically experience quite a bit of rain and trees start shedding. If you could avoid scheduling your outdoor sessions between December and February, that would be recommended- however I am happy to work with you during any time of the year!

What is the process of booking with you?
Currently I do not have a client closet, but each session does come with a style guide that will be emailed to you after you book. The style guide has examples of clothing and color combinations as well as helpful tips about your session.
I am also more than happy to help you with styling should you need more guidance beyond the style guide.

What is the process of booking with you?
All sessions can take place in home or on location.
If in home, you and I will work together to figure out the best time to shoot in your home. Typically a week before your session I will be in touch with you to see when the rooms in your home are brightest. I will ask you to send me photos at specific times of day for us to nail down the time. What I look for is bright indirect light.
For on location sessions, I have a location guide which I will provide to you after booking. From the location guide you can select which location works best for you. All on location shoots take place about 30-45 minutes before sunset. The location guide includes photos of the location as well as helpful information to know (like how much walking is included).
If not shooting at the beach, generally between the months of March-May you can expect green grass/hills, and between the months of June-November dried yellow grass.

After you reach out to me via email, I will get back to you with my current availability.
Once you and I lock in a date I will send you my booking form which goes over my policies and covers expectations after the session.
You then will be required to pay the creative fee to lock in your date.
Once that is complete you are on my books!
