Frequently Asked Questions

Weddings

  • Visit our contact page and fill out the inquiry form so I have some information about you, your guy and your wedding day! I will email you our wedding collection guide with all the specifics! We can chat and answer all your questions! Once your package is chosen, contract is signed and retainer is received, your wedding date is officially on my calendar too! Then, the real fun begins!

  • While it is not required, it is a gift I love giving to every couple! I have seen how it is a pivotal point in our experience with couples. You get to dress up, get beautiful pictures and have a fun date too! We highly encourage it! It helps us get to know each other and my camera gets to love you before your wedding day! Because it is a gift, choosing to opt out does not change the investment total on any wedding collection.

  • I am happy to help in any area I can! With years in the industry, I have recommendations ready for you for wedding vendors. I’ll happily send them over!

  • Every wedding gallery is different because each wedding is! Details, wedding party, family and guest size, are a few factors that go into affecting your total photo count, but please do not worry! My job is to document the day start to finish! My shutter clicks all day! For wedding galleries, it is typical for couples to receive between 600-1000 images. For engagement sessions, it ranges between 150-250 images. Quality and variety of your images matter most to me!

  • Engagement sessions are delivered 3 weeks after and weddings days are delivered 6-8 weeks after. Each photo is hand-edited and made sure to be just right for you. After this, we will explore designing your engagement or wedding album! I design them to tell the story in a visually appealing layout. That design is made into a custom heirloom album for you to cherish for years to come. This is delivered directly to you!

Portraits

  • It is all about the style! I shoot with a very interactive, natural style of shooting for families, especially parents with their new baby! Of course, I will be sure to get sweet individual images of your baby too, but we always include mama and daddy (and siblings or pets!) in these sessions.

  • It is up to you and your preference! I love coming into your home to capture your family authentically, as well as provide comfort for you in your own space. Some mamas love this option to feature rooms they make the most memories. Years from now as life moves fast, you will love looking back at images from that special home and room. This is also a great option if you want to have images in/of your baby’s sweet nursery! I will photograph details in the nursery as well! At your home, we can also go outdoors to use your yard or porch to give you a variety of images. The other option is our new indoor, natural light studio in downtown New Albany, Mississippi. If you do not want me to come to your home, this is what this space is for! We will achieve the same interactive, natural shooting style just at my studio.

  • We will take care of that! Our motherhood experience package options allow you to decide if you want to bundle sessions! We can do just a single lifestyle newborn session, or you can customize by adding maternity or milestone sessions (significant month shoots) to your experience.

  • Email me for more information! I will send you specifics. Once a retainer is completed, you are reserved! For newborn sessions, I will pencil in your due date in my calendar. Once your baby is born, we will be in touch to schedule things! I am here to help on any outfit or detail questions you have. We also have recommendations for local professional hair and makeup artists if you are interested!

  • All sessions include an online gallery with high-resolution images and printing rights. We have a print shop located in the gallery you can access to purchase prints for your home! All galleries include a print shop you can directly access and have high-quality prints shipped directly to you. If you are interested in canvases or an heirloom album featuring your baby’s newborn session or first year of life, please email me! I custom design these and ship them directly to you. My goal is to make this as easy, stress-free and enjoyable for you! I have learned just how well babies just do not keep.

  • Yes! Typically twice a year (in the spring and fall seasons) I offer family mini sessions!

    They are the perfect way to get a new framed portrait of your family. They are 15 minutes and it is truly the perfect amount of time to get pictures you love without stressing! We do not offer full family sessions at this time. Be sure to watch our Instagram and Facebook pages to see when these will be offered!

Entrepreneurs & Photographers

Small business owners, I see you! I am cheering you on! Owning a business is wonderful, but full of hard work too. I am here to help! As a professional photographer, I have the ability to create images for you that will increase your reputation online via website or social media. Having a reputable online space is so important these days. I want to help create images that show your clients and audience a few crucial things: who you are, what you do/sell, and why they should trust and invest in you.  That is what branding sessions are for! Let me take the  weight of image content off your shoulders! It would be a joy to help you and watch your business grow! Visit our For Photographers page for more information on branding imagery.

  • Similar to wedding photography, potential clients care WHO it is they are booking a service or buying a product from. Having high-quality images that show your face, your expertise and your personality help create trust and a relationship with your clients. When people trust you, they are more willing to trust your services. Even more, they will share about you to their circle, making your business grow! Our world is fueled by social media presence. Having these images is a perfect way to show that you are the expert and the real deal.

  • After inquiry, we will discuss exactly what your needs are, as every business owner is unique! From there, we will decide location- whether it’s at your place of business, home, outdoors, or in my studio. We can do a mix of locations as well. I will help you plan your outfits and what items/props you will need to truly communicate yourself, business and brand to your audience! We will have so much fun getting images you love and are excited to share. A branding session at its core is meant to give your prepared imagery content. You can expect to receive your gallery within 3 weeks of your session! Email me for more information or any further questions you have!

  • For full branding sessions, the turnaround is typically 2-4 weeks after your session! For recurring sessions for businesses that are more time sensitive (i.e. product launches, seasonal boutique photoshoots), they are delivered within 24-72 hours.

  • Truly anyone! We currently have interior design, real estate, florists, makeup artists and boutiques on our current client list! Whether it’s a one time session to gain online content or on a more recurring basis to update your website or portfolio, I am here to help!

  • Send me an email with information about you, where you are, and why you are interested in learning from me. Don’t be afraid to tell me your strong suits or pain points. The more I know, the better I can navigate your mentoring direction! I already cannot wait! It is a needs basis, so we can absolutely make a scheduled plan about the number of calls and the time in between each one. Topics will easily build on each other, but we can truly explore different areas of your business every time. Talking is the first and key step!

  • Email me for sure! Because the designs are so custom, we will talk about your client’s wishes, budget, and more to ensure their album is perfect. On your end as the photographer, you can be involved or have a hands-off approach. Once images are sent, I will select images for the album, create the preview and send it to you and your clients. Once the design is approved, custom options will be chosen and the album will be ordered! Album costs are set by the size and length of each book by the company we order through. My designing/logistics fee varies based on time acquired.

  • Absolutely! Remember that every single album design is unique and that is what makes this so fun and special! Here is a full wedding album as an example. We also offer these services for portraits, seniors and newborns, not just wedding albums!
