Frequently Asked Questions

When should I schedule my session?

For your Senior Portrait Experience, I recommend scheduling your session during the second half of your Junior year. Sessions are available starting in June for the next year's class. Summer and Fall sessions book very quickly.

What’s the best time of day to shoot?

I recommend starting the session about two hours before sunset. That gives us plenty of time to shoot with daylight and then with sunset light, which yields a different look.

Will you help with posing?

My goal is for your family and friends to see images that are ‘so you.’ To achieve that, I will put you in the right light and encourage you to act natural to start. From there, I will tell a few terrible jokes and we will see where to go from there. Still need posing help? I can help with that too.

Am I required to do hair and makeup?

You do not HAVE to but I cannot recommend it enough. Having your hair and makeup is not required, but having it professionally done is recommended as you will have an overall more polished look for in your photos. And there is a huge difference in doing your own makeup every day and being camera ready. Don’t have a hair or makeup person? I can help recommend a few to you.

How long will our session last?

You can expect the Full Senior Shoot to last 2-3 hours and the Mini-Shoot to last an hour.

When can I expect to see my images?

In most cases, a same day sneak peak will be available for view either on our blog or our Instagram. An in-person review of images will take place within two weeks of your shoot. Orders placed on the day of your in-person review will be placed immediately and can be expected within two weeks (for Prints & Canvas Prints) to three weeks (for Albums and Wood Prints).

How many final images will I see?

Your final preview will include approximately 40 images.

Will we get the Digital Images from our shoot?

Prints, Products and Digital Images are not included in your Session Fee, but can be purchased separately either a la carte or as part of a Collection.

Is there a Minimum Order Requirement?

Regardless of which Session Fee is right for you, there is a $350 minimum order requirement.

What forms of payment do you accept?

Session Fees and Product Orders can be paid by cash, check or credit card. Venmo and Paypal are also accepted.
