A.I have been known to travel out of state for clients and that is always a special treat. Sessions outside the area of Sandpoint, Coeur d'Alene and Post Falls, will be an added travel fee which will be discussed during your consultation.

A.Of course! When you book your session, you will receive a client email that contains a questionnaire to start the creative process of your session.
We will talk and discuss ideas and locations that are best fitted to your needs and vision.

A.Selecting your clothing for your session can seem to be overwhelming. I am here to help you in any way. It is best to avoid anything with graphics, logos or very bright colors. Earth tones, textures, and layers are great for a session. All that information as well as ideas and suggestions will be discussed during your consultation.

A.I work best with clients that do not care as much about getting absolutely perfect shots of their family sitting on a blanket smiling as they do about letting the session flow and trusting me to capture great images and emotions of their kids playing, all of you snuggling and having fun. Yes- we always aim to come away from the session with some (very few) nice shots of everyone looking at the camera but I also want you to come away with a good memory. I want you to remember that you had fun! If you are looking all perfectly posed shots, feel free to email me for a referral

A.I have photographed MANY families and I have never had an inconsolable, grumpy kid at a sunset session to the point where we did not get a nice gallery full of personality and connection. I try keep my sessions pretty short, about 45 minutes. When kids arrive at the lake, field or other location where we are shooting, to them this is not the same as you keeping them awake at home. The spot is fun and new, I am a new person and I make the whole thing very playful. It is ALWAYS worth shooting late to get pretty light. If you feel you cannot shoot into the evening, you can opt for an in-home session earlier in the day. However, in order to stick to my creative vision and so you can get the types of shots and light you hired me for, I like to stick to the golden glow time frame.

A.Stop stressing momma. I am a mom of 5 kids and I know exactly how you are feeling. My sessions are very play-based and designed to be about them and their comfort. While we aim to get a few (very few) nice posed, family shots I also give kids a chance to play and be silly. If your kid is shy, I will meet them where they are. Outgoing? I’ll be there too Instead of telling your child they are going to get pictures taken, say they get to go the beach or park and a fun lady will be there with a camera.
