Mini sessions are great for capturing quick photos. Mini family sessions are for immediate family only. These sessions typically only allow for one background with a few poses/shots. A mini session lasts around 25 minutes and produces 15+ images. Full sessions are best for larger families, families who have younger children, families who want more than just immediate family (grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles), or just families who want more variety and images. A full session allows for more poses and backgrounds or clothing changes as well as more candid moments. A full session is one hour and produces 30+ images.

Mini sessions are located between Haymarket and Aldie on a large private ranch unless otherwise specified. Full sessions do come with location options. If you want a location that is not on my list, there are travel fees and potentially additional fees based on the location.

I am just as excited for you to receive your photos as you are! I try to get everyone's photos to them as soon as I am done editing them. For most sessions, you will receive your photos within three week. For commercial photography, you will receive your photos within four weeks. For weddings and other events, you will receive your photos within two months.

When taking outdoor photos, we chance bad weather. If your photo session is scheduled for a bad weather day, I will give two options for rebooking. Notifications will be sent through your email.

Anything you feel comfortable in! Some people prefer to dress up while others prefer a laid back look. Please keep in mind that since we will be outside, kids may get a little dirty, you might sit on the ground, and we will walk around a little bit. I am more than happy to give recommendations based on which location we are going to and the time of year. My goal with every photo session is for everyone to feel happy and stress free, so please don't let your outfit stress you out! We can make anything work!

I love animals and love taking photos of the entire family including those with fur. Unfortunately some locations will not allow pets, so please ask before bringing your pet with you. Farm animal sessions have a strict no pet policy.

Both! I love to capture a natural moment, and I also love the posed photos that most people use to hang on the wall. During your session, I will try different poses while also snapping candid photos.

Life happens! If you need to cancel or reschedule you photo session, please notify us as soon as possible. You will receive your money back minus a $50 nonrefundable fee which can be used towards your next session if booked within 14 days of the day you notified us of your cancellation.
