III. Are the travel expenses included in your packages or covered additionally?

For mini session, travel fee is included within 15 miles from Walnut Creek, CA. $5/mile travel fee might apply after the first 15 miles.
I also travel to other cities for photo sessions.
IV. Where and when should we schedule our photo session?
Where: Anywhere that is special to you! I can photograph in your home or document your family having good time at the fields or woods, playing in the creek or at the beach, or exploring the downtown area... I’m inspired by the locations, and always down for an adventure.
When: For outdoor sessions, lighting is usually best in the early morning hours right after sunrise or 1-2 hours before the sunset if you want warm glowing “golden light” look. I’m inspired by the light and comfortable to work with any light at any time of the day. We will have absolutely great time if you want to embrace different light with me, as long as you are aware of light affects the tones of photos.
V. What should we wear?
While providing general tips on what to wear, I encourage you to wear comfortable and reflect who you are. Colors are better coordinating and complementing with each other than matching matchy; play with textures and materials and add layers and accessories. I love to help with styling, and encourage you to send me pictures of your outfits so I can help to look at colors.
VI. We want to include our dog/cat/other pet into the session and photos, is that okay?
Of course! Apart from how much we love these fur babies, they are also the best props:)
VII. How long does it take to recieve the photos after the photo session and how will those be delivered?
You'll get your photos delivered in 3-4 weeks, depends on the session you choose. 1 week speed turnaround service available for a fee of $100.
VIII. Do you offer installment plan?
Yes!
This is a hard time for all of us, and often families feel like photography is out of their budget. Professional Photography is an investment worth making, and I believe that everyone deserves to have their journey documented. Imagine 10 or 20 years from now, opening your storybook album & being able to not only re-live your story again, but you will be able to share the story of this journey with your children. I’m happy to creat a payment plan that is customized to each client.
