What to expect before the photoshoot:
After we get in contact and get something scheduled, I will get in touch so I can understand what you are looking for. Unpopular opinion, but I am a big fan of the voice message, so I likely will shoot you a message to figure out what you are looking for! We’ll discuss your style, what you have in mind, wardrobe choices, locations… that sort of thing!
If I feel nudged by the Holy Spirit, I also would love to take some time to pray over you and whatever we will be working on creating together — whether that is photos of your precious family, your child’s future after graduation from high school, or pictures of your cutie baby bump. I believe that the Lord has good plans in store for His children, so I would love to pray over and bless what He is doing in your life.
As I plan and prepare for your shoot on my own, I spend time praying over it so that I can better know how to support what is going on in your life.
At the photoshoot and after:
At the shoot, I like to take time to meet everyone who is present. I will take your phones so there are no lumps in pockets, and I like to make sure all apple watches, etc. are removed. I also want to make note that my amazing husband Jason is typically my assistant. If for some reason you are uncomfortable with a man being present at your shoot, that’s totally fine! Just let me know ahead of time, and we will make other arrangements!
Now, I know waiting for photos can be GRUELING so I always aim to get my edited photos to you within four weeks. Often, I can finish within the week — and that is my goal! But, I gotta give myself some wiggle room for busy seasons and life being life.
You should also know that it is VERY typical for me to over-deliver on the number of photos. I give a minimum, but usually there are so many precious ones I can’t narrow them down! I get a little emotionally attached to the sweetness. What can I say!
