FAQ
How do prints work?
I do not do prints. I will email you a digital gallery of edited images with an electronic print release to the comfort of your own home! You can download and print them as you please! :)
Can I bring my pets?
Yes! I shoot with animals often... Dogs, cats, horses, pigs (yep!)... As long as they are well behaved and not aggressive, please do!
Do you travel?
More often than not! The good spots are always so far away, aren't they? There is a travel fee of 54 cents/mile when travel exceeds 20 miles outside of Great Falls, Montana.
How many pictures am I going to get?
This varies from session to session depending on cooperation of children involved, size of family, distance between shooting spots. Typically 30 minutes gets you anywhere from 15-20, one hour sessions 25-45.
What if the session isn't enough time?
If you let me know ahead of time that you need extra time (i.e: 45 minutes instead of 30, or 1.5 hours instead of 1 hour), each 15 minute increment past session time will be $75. If we wait until the day of and we are going over allotted time, each increment will be $150.
What if I don't want studio newborns? Can you do lifestyle in my home?
Yes! That would fall under the half or full length sessions listed above! I can come into your home and take photos of babe and your family in the comfort of your nursery, living room, etc.
How soon will I get my pictures back?
My turn around time is typically 2 weeks or less but can be as long as 3-4 weeks during wedding season.

FAQ
Do you shoot destination weddings?
I can shoot anywhere you'd like! Travel and lodging fees will be added to the total package price.
Will there be a second shooter?
Yes, if you'd like a second shooter I have access to one! Any photos taken by the shooter will be edited in my style so they remain consistent. The cost of a second shooter adds $75/hour to the package price. If you do not want the second shooter there for the entire day, a second travel fee will be applied for them as well! Please keep in mind, if they are there for longer than 6 hours, a meal will be required for them in addition to myself.
Can I extend the session on the day of?
If you know in advance that the time will not be enough and want to add it by the hour, you can! It will be $325 ($75/hour still applies if there is a second shooter). If at the end of the night, time got away from us (although it shouldn't because I help you fill out a timeline before hand :) ), the cost is $500/hr and must be paid at the time of service, before the added time begins.
What if I don't need an engagement session?
The hour session can be used for anything you'd like: boudoir, bridal, one year anniversary, etc. If you choose not to use that hour for any coverage at all, that's fine too! It's just an added freebie if you want it!
