Contract Summary
Just a few important reminders from your contract! If you're late, we'll just use the time we have left, sessions don't run over. Reschedules are okay with 7+ days’ notice. If it's within 6 days, the retainer is non-refundable. Cooperation is key, especially with little ones. I’ll guide gently, but your help is always appreciated! You've hired me for my artistic style, so I'll select the best images with care and edit them in a consistent style to the rest of my portfolio. Photos are for your personal use only. Feel free to print them and share them online but please tag me, don't put filters or edits on them, and download them instead of screenshotting. I will be using my favorites from the session for my website, portfolio, and social media. If something big happens (illness, emergency, tech failure), we’ll reschedule or I’ll refund you. Everything else is written out in detail in the full agreement, but this is the heart of it!
Follow along on Facebook and Instagram so I can tag you in your photos, and stay in the loop for future updates and exciting news!
The Goal
This session is a chance to slow down and really enjoy each other. I will pose, prompt, and adjust as needed, but you're free to move around and interact as you normally would. lean into each other, talk about life, tell jokes, laugh, kiss, hold hands, be close. Some of the most beautiful moments come from simply being together. The session will be relaxed, fun, and pressure-free. We can keep in simple - walking through a park and exploring, cuddling; or you can turn it into something more personal: a pizza picnic, a card game, a dance party. We can meet at the playground, the beach, the bookstore, your favorite spot. The goal is for you to spend intentional time together and create beautiful memories that showcase your unique story.

For Big Siblings
Kids don't need to sit still or smile in every photo. The aim is to capture connection, not perfection. We want to show the beauty of your family as you are. Some of the most beautiful moments come from simply being together. The way you look at them, hold them, talk, joke, and love. Your only job is to be present and enjoy your people.
What to Bring
To help everything run smoothly and comfortably, please bring/wear:
Nude seamless underwear and a nude bra (strapless if needed), a comb and your makeup for quick touchups, a bottle of water and a light snack if you'll need one (we'll be shooting for about an hour), Comfortable, neutral shoes (even if we don’t shoot them, they’re helpful in between)
Posing
You don't need to know how to pose, just come ready to feel beautiful and have fun. I’ll guide you into the right light and give you direction for the most flattering poses, and then let you move naturally within that space. If you're in your third trimester, I recommend a gentle stretch earlier in the day and lots of hydration. I prioritize communication and will always check in to make sure you’re comfortable.
