Common Questions
-
Most sessions are booked 2 to 8 weeks in advance. Proposals often come together more quickly, so don’t hesitate to reach out even if your date is soon—I’ll always try to accommodate if I can.
-
For sure! I’ll hop on a planning call with you to coordinate timing and logistics, and I’ll do my best to make sure you feel totally supported (even if you’re nervous).
-
You can! Just bear in mind the length of your photo session (changing too many times within a short session may take away from your experience) and the location (are you comfortable changing in your car/outdoors if there isn’t an available restroom?).
-
I primarily schedule engagement and proposal sessions on Mondays through Thursdays because I reserve weekends for weddings, but I do offer some limited weekend availability as an optional add-on. Just ask when you inquire.
