Frequently Asked Questions

The Process
How it starts…
Yay! You found me—and we’re officially booked!
After a few emails, messages, or maybe even a quick phone call, we’ve picked the perfect date and time for your session. You’ve visited the Investment page, selected what works best for your schedule, and locked it in.
Woot woot! Cue the happy dance!
What is next…
How we communicate depends on the type of session you’ve booked.
Studio Collection:
We’ll start designing your custom set. Choosing the theme, wardrobe ideas, and all the details to make your portraits truly special. Before your session, you’ll receive a Welcome Email and Photography Client Contract. As the date approaches, I’ll send you a Client Guide with helpful tips and everything you need to know for your session.
Location Collection:
We’ll choose a location that fits the style you’re looking for, whether that’s a woodsy setting, flower field, urban backdrop, or something else. We’ll also talk about styling, including any props you want to include like blankets, wagons, or signage. Before your session, you’ll receive the Welcome Email and Photography Client Contract. Closer to the day, I’ll send a Client Guide with all the tips and details to help your shoot go smoothly.
Portrait day …
What a blast we had during your session, full of laughs, hugs, and plenty of giggles! Now that we’ve wrapped up, your portraits are safely in my creative hands.
I’ll spend the next 7–14 business days (often sooner) carefully editing your images. When they’re ready, I’ll send you a personalized gallery for you to view. From there, you get the fun (and sometimes tough!) job of selecting your final portraits included in your collection. And remember, there’s always the option to add extra images if you’d like ... most clients do!
Yay! …
You’ve finally chosen your favorite images ... no easy task, I know! Now, I’ll take up to four weeks (usually less) to prepare these beautiful portraits and get them ready to send your way, so they can find their special forever home.
The moment has arrived! Your heirloom portraits will be delivered through your password-protected private gallery. Along with your high-resolution, hand-edited digital images, you’ll receive a print release giving you full permission to print them wherever you like.
And just like that, our session journey comes to a pause, though not goodbye. We’ve shared messages, emails, maybe a call or two, and I can’t wait for your next session. Until then, big hugs and see you soon!
Hugs,
Kimberly (KC)
