FAQ

An additional $20.00 per person will be assessed in groups over five (up to 12). For groups of 12 or more, quotes will be based on group size and various factors. Contact for an exact quote.

Pets are an additional $20.00 per pet. Sessions that include pets must either be well leashed trained and/or please bring someone to assist with the pet during the session.

-Last minute bookings (less than 7 days notice) are subject to a $25 fee. I encourage you to book in advance so that I can better serve you and your requested session time.

*Parking fees with be invoiced during Peak Season (April 15-Sept 15) if your session falls during paid parking hours at a public access point.

Rescheduling / Cancellation

A contract is required to be signed by all clients. Your session deposit is non-refundable in the event of cancellation by the client. If cancelled by the photographer, it is refundable.

If your session is rescheduling less than 14 days prior to the shoot, there is a $75 rescheduling fee. If the photographer needs to reschedule the shoot due to weather, you will not be charged that fee.

All of this is covered in detail in the contract.

What is your turnaround time?

Digital images purchased for studio sessions are typically returned same day or within 24 hours.

Outdoor sessions - it may take up to 5 business days during peak season (May-September) to receive your family session images depending upon scheduling of your in person viewing.

Retainer / Balance Due

A 50% retainer is due at booking. The balance of your invoice is due 7 days prior to your shoot. If the window of scheduling is smaller, the full amount will be due at booking.
