Frequently Asked Questions
When should I book my Colorado portrait session with you?
Depending on the time of year, I may be booked as far as 3 months in advance. This is especially true in the busy fall months (September - November). As soon as you are thinking about booking, please contact me. It is never too early!
For expecting mama’s, please do not wait until close to, or after your baby’s due date. Most mom’s book their newborn sessions in the second or beginning of their third trimester. Maternity sessions usually take place between 30-36 weeks.
Newborn sessions take place when baby is between 7-20 days old 💗
Which Colorado locations do you serve?
Currently, I serve the plains of Eastern Colorado. Some clients prefer to drive to me, while others prefer I drive to them so that we can complete their photo session at the location of their choice. Travel is complimentary within a 30 mile radius of Limon, Colorado. A small travel fee will apply for any location beyond that range.
Service locations include but are not limited to the following Colorado areas:
Limon, CO
Simla, CO - Calhan, CO - Peyton, CO
Falcon, CO - Colorado Springs, CO
Flagler, CO - Burlington, CO
Byers, CO - Strasburg, CO - Bennett, CO
Rush, CO - Hugo, CO - Kit Karson, CO
Colorado Springs, CO
How long will my portrait session last?
Family photo sessions last up to an hour, although I typically can provide you with a complete and diverse gallery in 30-45 minutes. I work fast!
Senior Portrait Sessions last between 90 minutes - 2 hours depending on outfit and location changes
Newborn sessions can last anywhere from 90 minutes to 3 hours. This completely depends on the temperament of baby and/or any siblings that may be participating. I will never allow a session to go beyond the three hours and rarely have a session that goes beyond 2 1/2 hours.
When will I receive my images?
I will have your images ready to view 1-2 weeks after our session date. At this point, we will schedule your preview and purchasing appointment. After your order is placed, your products will be packaged and delivered within 2-3 weeks.
So, from session day to delivery day, expect 3-5 weeks.
If you are on a deadline, please let me know, I may be able to work some magic!
How much should I expect to spend on my portrait session?
Investment varies depending on clients needs, but I pride myself on having options for a wide array of budgets. For more information on client investment, please visit the investment page by clicking your session type below.
What do we wear/bring to our portrait session?
Before your session, you will receive a welcome guide from me, full of helpful information about how to prepare for your photo session and what to expect before, during and after. I will be with you every step of the way so that you always feel fully prepared. I also have a wardrobe closet that clients have access to borrow from.
What if we need to cancel our photo session?
In the case of bad weather (determined by me), or having to cancel do to a single illness or emergency, you will be offered an immediate reschedule and your booking fee will be transferred to a future date. In the event of a cancellation for any other reason, the cancellation must be received 2 weeks prior to your session date to avoid forfeiting your booking fee. This will be waived if you are able to find someone to fill your session appointment.
