FAQ
How far in advance should I book?
4–6 weeks is ideal, especially for fall and holiday sessions which fill quickly.
What if my kids won't cooperate?
This is my specialty. I work at the kids' pace, make it a game, and catch the real moments in between. Some of the best family photos happen when kids are being themselves.
What should we wear?
I send every client a detailed what-to-wear guide after booking. The short version: coordinate without matching, stick to soft neutrals and earthy tones, and dress comfortably.
Do you travel to Claremont?
Yes — Claremont is one of my most requested locations. No travel fees.
