FAQ
How much does a session cost?
Investment starts at $690 for the Everyday Collection and $1,290 for the Editorial Experience, each including a product credit toward your final collection. Because every session is a little different, I go over exact pricing and what's included during your phone consultation, so we can match the right experience to your vision.

FAQ
How does it all work from booking to delivery?
It starts with a quick phone consultation to talk through your vision and find the right fit. From there, we lock in your date, and on session day we create your images together. About three weeks later, you'll come in for your ordering appointment to view your gallery and choose your collection. Once your order is paid in full, I place it with my print lab, and your products — along with your online gallery — are ready for pickup.

FAQ
When should I book my maternity or newborn session?
For maternity, the sweet spot is between 28–34 weeks. You've got that beautiful round belly, but you're still comfortable enough to move around and enjoy yourself.
For newborn, here's the thing—I only take a limited number of newborn sessions each month so I can give each family the time and attention they deserve. That means the best time to book is... before the baby comes. Like, while you're still pregnant. Reach out in your second trimester and we'll get you on the calendar. If baby comes early or late, no worries—we adjust. But if you wait until after birth, I may not have room for you.

FAQ
Where do sessions take place?
Editorial Experience sessions are fully brought to you — your home, a stunning Airbnb, or a historic venue — wherever you envision your images living. Everyday Collection sessions take place at a handful of my favorite golden-hour spots around Shelby, including fields, lakes, and mountain settings; I'll share the exact location that fits your vision best during booking.

FAQ
Do you offer albums, wall art, or digital files?
Yes, yes, and yes.
I believe your images deserve to be printed and held and passed down—not just living on a hard drive. So I offer heirloom albums, framed prints (including my signature circular frames), metal, acrylic, and more.
Digital files are available as an add-on or standalone, but I always encourage my mamas to get something tangible. You'll thank yourself in 20 years.

FAQ
What do I wear? Do you help with styling?
Absolutely I help.
Most mamas have no idea what to wear, and that's completely normal. Once you're booked, I'll send over my styling guide and we can chat through options. For maternity sessions, I also have a client closet full of gorgeous designer gowns—beads, jewels, the whole thing—that you're welcome to borrow.
For newborns, I've got wraps, bonnets, and custom setups. For families, I help you coordinate so everyone looks like they belong together without being matchy-matchy.

FAQ
I'm not photogenic / I'm camera shy. Can you still get good photos of me?
First of all, yes. Secondly, you're probably more photogenic than you think—you just haven't had the right person behind the camera.
My job is half photography, half therapy. I'll talk you through every pose, make you laugh when you're feeling awkward, and catch the in-between moments when you forget the camera is even there.
By the end, most mamas tell me they actually had fun. And they're always shocked at how beautiful they look.

FAQ
Can my partner and kids join?
Of course they can.
Maternity sessions are about you, but if you want your partner or little ones in a few shots, we'll absolutely make that happen. Just know that the focus is on you and that gorgeous bump.
For newborn sessions, siblings are welcome—and I'm really good at bribing them with snacks and patience to get at least one smile. No promises on the smile, but we'll try our best.

FAQ
Are travel expenses included in your packages or covered separately?
Sessions within Shelby and the immediate surrounding area are included in your session fee. For locations outside that range, a travel fee applies based on distance — just let me know where you're located and I'll give you that number during your consultation.

FAQ
Do you offer any type of credit for leaving my attire or outfit behind?
Yes! If you'd like to leave your maternity gown or newborn outfit with me afterward, I offer a credit toward an additional print or digital file as a thank-you — it also helps me build my client closet for future styling options. Just mention it during your consultation or ordering appointment.
