FAQ’s
Answering Some Questions About Your Family Photography Session
How can I book a session?
Booking a session is easy! Simply fill out the form below to inquire about your desired date. Please note that during the busy wedding season (April-October), sessions will be booked on Sundays. Your appointment is guaranteed once the contract is signed and payment is received.
Where is the location?
The location for your session will depend on the season and the type of shoot. Most sessions take place in beautiful outdoor settings such as parks in Reno, public areas in San Luis Obispo, and the picturesque Lake Tahoe State Parks. I also offer sessions at my cozy home studio in Sparks, NV. Some venues, like farms, may require an admission fee, which is not included in the session price. For locations that require permits, such as certain public parks, there will be an additional fee to cover the permit costs.
Can I schedule more time?
Absolutely! A one-hour session is available starting at $400 and can accommodate up to 12 people.
What is a mini-session?
A mini-session is a 20-minute photography service starting at $200+ (prices vary based on the number of people and location) for up to 6 people. If you have a larger group, you’ll need to book a full one-hour session, as 20 minutes isn’t enough time for bigger groups.
How does the session work?
When we arrive at the chosen location, we’ll start with some pleasantries and pick the perfect spot for photos. Mini-sessions are fast-paced and fun, designed to capture natural, candid moments with easy poses that work for everyone. During the session, we’ll work as a team, chasing beautiful light and encouraging plenty of smiles and silliness. Depending on the season and setup, you can expect 5-8 different poses included in your session and gallery. After the session, I’ll edit the images to reflect my photography aesthetic. If you’re not familiar with my work, please check out my short videos and gallery below before booking.
How long will it take to get my photos?
Your edited images will be sent to your email of choice within 3 weeks after your session date.
How many photos do I receive?
Most sessions will result in a gallery of approximately 50-100 images. Mini-session clients will receive a set number of high-resolution digital downloads included in the price. Clients who book a one-hour session will receive 50 high-res digital downloads as part of their package.
Whether you’re looking for a quick mini-session or a comprehensive one-hour shoot, I’m here to help capture your family’s special moments in beautiful settings across Reno, Lake Tahoe, San Luis Obispo, and more. Let’s create lasting memories together!
(Mini-session inclusions may vary from season to season. Promotions are subject to change)
