The FAQ

The FAQ

Weather can be a bit unpredictable at times, and we gotta deal with it! If we planned on shooting outdoor and we're face rainy weather, we'll reschedule for a better day.

I monitor the weather forecasts 2 to 3 days before our session. If it looks like the weather won't cooperate, I'll get in touch with you as soon as possible.

Life happens, I get it! If someone falls ill or an emergency comes up, please let me know as soon as possible. I'll do my best to find a new date that works for us.

Remember that your retainer fee is non- refundable, but it can be transferred to a future session. However, if you cancel entirely, it will not be refunded.

Couple sessions typically last around 1 to 1.5 hours. This gives us enough time to explore different spots, try a variety of poses, and capture your unique connection without feeling rushed.

My goal is to create a comfortable and fun atmosphere where you can relax, be yourselves, and let your love shine through naturally.

Two should be the minimum amount of outfits you bring so you can get a little variety, but three outfits is my sweet spot.

The golden rule here is to wear something that makes you feel comfortable and confident!

The fee is calculated at $[X] per mile beyond this radius. If you’re unsure whether your location incurs a fee, feel free to ask!
