Planning your Session to Printing your Artwork

I'm dedicated to making your photography journey smooth and enjoyable.

From the initial planning stages to the delivery of your gallery, every detail is thoughtfully managed for a stress-free experience. You'll have access to a curated client wardrobe and the option to add professional hair and makeup services, so you don't have to wrestle with doing your makeup while wrangling small children. With a complimentary print credit, you can choose beautiful artwork for your home without worrying about what to do with digital files. My goal is to simplify your life, allowing you to focus on being an incredible mom. Leave the rest to me.

The Steps

01.: Explore Your Options

Are you considering a maternity, newborn, or baby milestone session? Perhaps a motherhood or full family session? Decide if you'd like to visit the studio, choose a picturesque location, or have me come to your home. There are plenty of options to consider. While most sessions are signature sessions, you might prefer a petite session or even a mini milestone. Reach out to discuss your needs, and I'll guide you to the perfect session type. Don't forget to ask about the Collective Membership for exclusive perks, savings, and a year's worth of photos. Contact me!
02.: Schedule your Session

Once we've determined the perfect session type for you, I'll send you a scheduling link to select your preferred day and time. You'll then receive an agreement and a brief questionnaire to finalize your booking. Before your session, I'll provide guides with FAQs, location details, and outfit tips to help you prepare. A non-refundable creative fee will secure your date. After your session, enjoy a slideshow of your images and select your desired collection. Ready to book? Let’s make it happen!
03.: The Session Day

A few days before your session, I'll confirm our time and location. If weather or health issues arise, we can reschedule. This is your chance to ask any last-minute questions. Signature sessions are not timed, allowing us to go with the flow. Your session might last 30 minutes or extend over an hour, but regardless of the duration, you'll receive plenty of stunning images to adorn your home and add to your legacy. Petite sessions have a 30-minute limit, while mini milestones are just 15 minutes, and both are available only in the studio. Please let me know if you're running late. Relax—this will be a smooth and enjoyable experience!
04.: Your Image Reveal and Artwork Selection

Within a couple of weeks after your session, you'll receive an email letting you know your photos are ready. Enjoy a 24-hour slideshow to marvel at your images and choose your collection. You'll have a full month to select your favorite digital files and spend your complimentary print credit in the gallery store—all from the comfort of your home, with no high-pressure sales meeting.

I offer a range of heirloom-quality products to preserve your precious memories. From fine art prints to beautifully crafted albums, each product is designed to last a lifetime. If you'd like to see product samples, feel free to schedule a visit to my studio anytime. I'm here to ensure you have a stress-free, enjoyable experience from start to finish!

Wardrobe Made Easy

As my client, you have complimentary access to the exclusive studio wardrobe. This ensures that you and your family will coordinate flawlessly, enhancing the beauty of your finished images. Plus, it’s one less thing for you to worry about for your session. The wardrobe is available for all photo sessions, whether we're meeting in the studio, at your home, or on location. The right wardrobe makes a significant difference in the outcome of your images.

Did you know that a typical family spends around $500 on wardrobe for their photo session? By using my studio wardrobe, I'm saving you both time and money.

I have over 100 dresses for moms, shirts for dads, and outfits for children under 5. Many of the dresses in the collection fit most body types, from pregnancy to postnatal. Each piece is carefully selected for its photographic appeal. While using the studio wardrobe is not mandatory, it is a wonderful option to consider for your session.

Enhance Your Session with Professional Hair and Makeup

Consider adding the touch of a professional hair and makeup artist to your session for an extra boost of confidence and stunning results. My recommended licensed artist, located just 15 minutes away in Fridley, knows how to create a naturally beautiful look that enhances your features and ensures you look your best.

This optional service allows you to relax and feel pampered on the day of your session, without the stress of getting ready on your own. It's a wonderful way to ensure your photos reflect your true beauty and leave you with images you'll love.
