For a Family + Lifestyle session it usually takes about 2-3 weeks for the full gallery to be delivered. For a newborn session I try and send a sneak peek gallery so you can post and then send the full gallery 3-4 weeks later. For a wedding I send a sneak peek gallery within the first week of the wedding and then it usually takes about 8-10 weeks give or take to deliver the full gallery.

When will we see our photos?

You can share any and all of your photographs! These are your photographs to enjoy and print however you want or whenever you wish. However, I retain the copyright to your images. This just means you may not alter the photos or enter them in competitions, etc. without my consent. 

Can I print, email, and share my photographs with family + friends? Do I own the copyright?

I recommend sticking to neutral, muted tones which goes best with my style of photography and editing - cream, white, mauve, tan, sage/olive green, lavender, light blue, mustard yellow etc. Try to stay away from really bright colored outfits. You are more then welcome to have different patterns such as florals for example and adding some texture helps as well such as: lace, corduroy ruffles etc. Be sure to coordinate your colors but don’t match too much. Khaki pants for dad or little boys is great or jeans are a good option as well, I just don’t prefer more then two people in jeans or if you do, be sure to have them in different shades of blue and not all dark. Some of my favorite brands for the kiddos is Zara, Quincymae, Fin and vince, Wild Ivy, Mebie Baby and much more. And then some brands I would recommend for Mama or an expecting Mama is Free people, ShopDoen, Fillyboo or Fillyboo Maternity, Mama Bump Rentals etc. I am always happy to help you coordinate or I can send you any inspo as well prior to your session, just send me a text or email!

Yes I love traveling and experiencing new places! I am based in SoCal but love to experience more of the world around me whether that but in a different part of California, out of state or even out of the country. Travel fees may apply so make sure to communicate where you are dreaming of going!

Do you travel for a portrait session or wedding?

I love the “golden hour” look and feel. It is the best way to get those dreamy images especially at a beach location. Any location with fields or mountains I usually like to shoot an hour or more before sunset since the sun sets at least 30 min before actual sunset in the valley compared to the beaches.

For a portrait/lifestyle session when is your favorite time to shoot?

Yes, after you read through and sign the contract, I ask for 50% for the Family and Lifestyle Sessions and then the rest of the payment is due on the session day. For weddings I ask for a deposit of $1,000 to save your wedding date. And then the rest of the payment is due one month before your wedding. If you are struggling financially and need to make a few payments then I can offer a payment plan for you to make a payment a couple months after you pay your deposit and then the rest of the payment would be due a month before your wedding date. If you have questions about this, feel free to reach out via email and I can explain more in depth. 

Do you ask for a deposit to book?
