FAQs
When should I contact you to book my family session?
Typically, I recommend providing a few weeks' notice when booking family sessions, especially during peak seasons when demand is higher, and my schedule tends to fill up quickly. However, don't hesitate to reach out, even if you hope to book your session sooner. Occasionally, I can accommodate last-minute requests and would love to capture your family's moments whenever possible.
What time of day do you shoot?
I generally prefer shooting outdoors during the evening, about an hour before sunset when the sun is at its optimal position in the sky. However, I understand that this may not always be feasible, especially for families with younger children or during specific times of the year. In instances when shooting during the day is necessary and the sun is not in the ideal position, we will choose a location with ample shade and covering for the session. The specific location will be discussed and decided upon during the booking process.
can our fur baby join in during the shoot?
Absolutely! Your furry friends are more than welcome to be part of our outdoor sessions, provided the location allows pets. If you're bringing your fur baby, remember to bring a leash and some treats to ensure a smooth and enjoyable session for everyone involved.
Should I have my hair and makeup done for the session?
While not mandatory, booking a professional hair and makeup artist can enhance the quality of your photoshoot. They are trained to create camera-friendly looks that complement your features. Ultimately, the decision depends on your preferences and comfort level with doing your own hair and makeup. The goal is for you to feel confident and enjoy the experience, whether you choose professional assistance or opt to DIY.
do you charge extra for larger families?
Understanding the added expenses of having a larger family, as a parent myself of a large family, I want to make your photography experience stress-free. Hence, there's no additional fee for larger families or extra individuals during the session, ensuring you can capture precious moments without worrying about extra costs.
what should we wear for our session?
Let's begin with what not to wear. Avoid dressing the family uniformly in a single color, and steer clear of the cliché jeans-and-white-tee combination. Skip large labels, cartoon characters, and busy patterns, as these can divert attention from the real focus – you and your family. Instead, opt for colors within the same palette, incorporate layers and textures, and choose clothing that ensures everyone feels confident and comfortable.
