FAQ
Pricing?
$350 for an hour session with a gallery of 40+ high quality images. Mini sessions are offered several times a year- please join my mailing list for mini session details and updates!
What to wear?
I suggest coordinated but not matching outfits. Neutral colors always make for beautiful and timeless family pictures. I ask that neon or brightly colored clothing be avoided because they can transfer to skin tones. Most importantly, come dressed comfortably so you can relax and have a good time! Contact me if you would like specific guidance with styling.
Where will my session take place?
Salem and the greater Willamette Valley has many beautiful settings for family photos including Bush Park, Deepwood Estate Gardens, local nature preserves, and urban locations. We will discuss which location is right for your family prior to our session. I am willing to travel within one hour’s drive of Salem at no additional cost.
What if my child isn’t having it?
I always say that it’s not a good session without an epic meltdown. I’m a mom, I get it! I have lots of experience working with kids, and have never failed to get great photos even with reluctant kiddos. I offer additional tips for preparing your children in my client prep guide.
