~ Family Chronicle ~

  • 60-90 mins. photo session in your home

  • all-inclusive storytelling gallery of all good edited images

  • just like it’s called, family chronicle, this is a heartwarming session to capture your families in the most authentic way at the comfort of your home

  • can be great for families that just had a baby, or want a session that will capture many variety of shots, that can be put nicely in the family album

  • I highly recommend doing 1-2 looks, but in general we will get huge variety of photographs taking photos from front porch to inside the house in different spaces that will represent your story best

  • I shoot natural light photography, so I don’t work with extra lightening equipment or props, if you feel like your house might be too dark, or just not in the season of life you feel like you wanting to take family photographs, then I highly encourage doing those in studio or outdoors

 

~ Studio Session ~

from $600 + tax

 

  • 45-60 mins. session in the studio of your choice

  • can be upgraded to 90 mins. for $750+tax

  • studio rental is already included in the price

  • all-inclusive storytelling gallery of all good edited images

  • ideal for maternity, newborn, family, or female portrait session (pretty much for everything :), you just know when you want studio session) craving that simple naked, natural light space vibe in their sessions

  • I do provide option for both, shorter and longer session, which basically depends more if you want more than 1 look, you would want to go with longer session

  • also, for lifestyle newborns, I do highly encourage longer session as well

  • and last but not the least, if you want to shoot studio session with extended or big family, then longer sessions are encouraged

 

~ Outdoor Stroll ~

from $500 + tax

 

  • 30-45 mins. photo session outdoors

  • this is your version of quick, mini session, just few shots, but in reality you still gonna get pretty big gallery, because I just can never deliver small galleries!

  • can be upgraded to 60-90 mins. for $600+tax

  • all-inclusive storytelling gallery of all good edited images

  • ideal once again for everything and anything:)

  • I do encourage longer sessions if you want to do female portrait session, or few looks, that way we can have more time to get creative, try more locations, and have more time to warm up with each other for you to get even more comfortable and relaxed in your session

 

~ Birthday Cheer ~

from $450 + tax

 

  • 60 mins. photo session at the location of birthday celebration of your child

  • I recently fell in love with shooting those!

  • all-inclusive storytelling gallery of all good edited images

  • only this type of session I deliver edited gallery within 48-72 hours, as I know it can be time sensitive, without extra cost of expedited fee!

  • this session is great because it’s like getting 2 in 1 - family shots, and candid shots of the birthday party celebration

  • to top it off - you already going to be dressed up, have the cake, and theme set for the session at the venue or your house

  • you might have guests and family, but my main focus will be capturing your family photographs, of course, that can be adjusted per your request and liking

  • most parties do last 2 hours, so if you want me to stay for the whole time, this session can be extended for $600+tax

 

Some more general info:

  • To book a session 50% deposit is required with the remainder of the payment no later than 72 hours prior to the session.

  • Standard delivery timeframe is 1-2 weeks.

  • Kids getting sick, and emergencies happen! In case of those we would reschedule within 3 month period. I ask You to let me know ASAP. For studio sessions, where we rent a space, there might be studio fee cancelation/rescheduling policy, which if canceled too close to the session might be lost.

  • Travel fee of $100 will be applied to sessions driving 40 mins out of 75206 zip code.

  • Inquire about Family Packages discount, when you book more than 2 sessions per one calendar year. Ideal for maternity and newborn, baby’s 1st year, and for families in general. I do believe, You should aim capture 2-3 family sessions per year, therefore for the ones feeling the same way, I want to be able to provide more affordable sessions.

  • I deliver all good images per my own selection, I do deliver BIG GALLERIES, in which even smallest sessions you should expect 60+ images.

  • Even though I deliver big galleries, and mini sessions of 15 mins could never work for me, as I will always overdeliver, still over the years, I grew to focus not particularly on the amount of images, but rather the variety of the shots, the story we get to create capturing your images.

  • No, I don’t do mini sessions, I just simply never managed to capture few shots, as I want to see and tell You the whole story with the images I get to capture. If You want smaller sessions though, I highly encourage, to book ~ Outdoor Stroll ~ or ~ Birthday Cheer ~ sessions. Maybe, per certain seasons, I might offer some promotional shorter sessions, for those just make sure to follow my Instagram page to see most recent works and current other offerings.

  • Fur buds are welcome to photography sessions. I have huge experience of working with all - babies, toddlers, kids and dogs, and at times cats. I do recommend, You bring a friend or relative, to help out! I let you decide on that part though, since You know your fur bud(s) best!

  • I do mix in black and white images in editing of the sessions as well, per my own creativity and feels, if You are not fan of those - completely fine, I can limit mixing those, just give heads up prior in our consultation.

  • Also, at times, I shoot intimate weddings, and small ceremony celebrations. Inquire directly for those custom pricing info.

  • So glad You made reading all the way down to here! I look forward to hearing from You shortly and getting to start planing Our photo session together :)
