My Process
I'm all about capturing personality and love with a true-to-life editing style. That means your images will always feel like YOURS! Images will be delivered in a secure, online gallery with full print releases. Additional options for purchasing prints, albums or canvases will also be shared.
After your Session
I come from a big family and spend a lot of time around little ones, so I have plenty of practice helping kids feel confident and comfortable. I'm very laid back and will make our session fun for the whole family...plus we can always take breaks whenever they're needed!
During your Session
I'll send you a brief questionnaire to help me get to know your family and what your goals for your session are. I’ll also share location ideas based on where you live, tips for prepping your kids and choosing the best outfits!
Before your Session
I require a signed electronic contract along with a non-refundable $100 deposit at the time of your booking to secure your date. The remaining balance will be due up to 24 hours of your session
WHAT IS REQUIRED TO BOOK WITH YOU?
FAQ
WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY IMAGES?
You can expect your full gallery to be delivered via email within 2-3 weeks from your session date - but depending on your collection - you will recieve a sneak peek within 24 hours of our time together!
WHAT IF THERE IS BAD WEATHER ON THE DAY OF OUR SESSION?
I keep a careful eye on my Weather Channel App and in the event of inclement (extreme cold, snow, rain, high winds) weather, I will reach out to you to plan to reschedule your session for another date.
WHAT IF I NEED TO CANCEL/RESCHEDULE?
I totally understand that life happens and things come up! The $100 non-refundable deposit will remain on your account to use toward a rescheduled CSP session within 90 days.
For my newborn parents, I have you schedule your session within 2 weeks of your due date - but, if your little one arrives early/late, or if you just need a few extra days to get settled, we can absolutely move your date. Since i only schedule a certain amount of newborn sessions a week/month, I offer a lot more flexibility for reschedules for these in-home sessions.
WHAT DOES MY ONLINE ALBUM INCLUDE?
All online digital galleries include high-resolution images, a print release (meaning you don't have to get prints through just me) and unlimited shares/downloads. You can order any prints or albums you'd like directly through your gallery. Your online album will remain active for one year.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
If you follow me on Instagram, you know I LOVE neutral and pastel colors. I have spent hours creating my CSP Stress Free Portrait Guide as a tool for you that provides tips, location ideas and tons of outfit inspiration.
HOW DO I KNOW WHICH SESSION IS RIGHT FOR ME?
A Signature Session is best for those who may take a little while to warm up in front of the camera knowing if your family can be more themselves better with no limited time constraint. This collection is perfect for those wanting an in home lifestyle session, a one yea cake smash, multiple close outdoor locations or if you're wanting a wider range of emotion, personality and a more dynamic gallery.
My Petite Collection is best for those who have little ones or family members who may get restless after 15 minutes and you are okay with a limited gallery. These sessions are perfect if you plan on several sessions a year, are okay with a more fast paced experience or are just in need of an updated Holiday card.
The best time to book your maternity photos is for the 7-8 month mark in your pregnancy. This means you’ll want to reach out to secure a date right around the start of your second trimester. You’ll likely be showing a pretty decent-sized bump between 28-36 weeks, especially if this isn’t your first baby
For those tiny, fresh newborn moments, schedule your newborn session 7-14 days after your due date. Newborn session dates are flexible to change, as newborns arrive on their own time. If your little one arrives earlier or later than expected, please reach out to me and we can adjust your session date. If you are wanting more time to settle in at home, newborn sessions can be scheduled up to 3 months after arrival.
How far in advance should we book?
All of my sessions are relaxed, comfortable and fun! During our time, I will start by photographing you and your family in a couple of posed positions, then move into more candid and active shots! That's why I recommend to just let kids be kids during the session.! We'll play games, laugh, and capture their full personalities in photos that you'll treasure for years to come. I promise to make you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, have timeless photos to remember this time by, and an unforgettable and fun experience!
Lifestyle Newborn Sessions are relaxed and cozy, taken place in the comfort of your own home. During our time, I will photograph you and your family snuggling with your baby, as well as document all the little unposed details of your little one! I know this time can be crazy, so my goal is to make you feel as much at ease as possible. I come with all the necessary props - a basket, swaddles, bows, etc. so you don't have to worry about having anything prepared... but we can photograph your little one in any special outfits you have in mind!
