We will never share your information with anyone, and we’ll never spam you. Lets start a conversation!
Family Portrait Sessions always take place on-location. Depending on what style of images you like, we may shoot in your home, in a local park, a museum, or a downtown area. Any location that appeals to you, and we are legally allowed to photograph in, is a possible candidate.
Standard turn around time for family portraits is around 2-3 weeks, but not guaranteed. If the images need extra time to look their best, we'll give it to them, but will always do our best to keep you in the loop. Rush delivery is available at an additional cost.
Our family portrait package includes up to 12 people, and one pet. We can always include additional people with an extra fee.
Travel to locations within 35 miles of the 21054 zip code is included with your session. Travel beyond that will cost a little extra.
Family sessions may last up to an hour and a half. When deemed appropriate by your photographer, they may last longer than that, and under some circumstances may be finished more quickly.
Our packages are all-inclusive, but do not include tax. If you wish to schedule a session outside of our normal service area you will be required to pay for travel. You may also be required to pay for prints, advanced retouching, parking and event or location admissions during the session.
Depending on the context of the image, we will remove some non-permanent blemishes and may slightly soften skin where it looks unnaturally rough. On portraits, we generally do not perform major cosmetic adjustments.
We make every effort to accommodate changes in schedule, bearing in mind we can only reserve one date at a time per booking, so schedules will be based on current availability at the time of rescheduling.
You bet! All of our members who shoot child portraits either have lots of kids in their lives, or have chidren of their own. We believe it’s important to let children take the lead, and we base our sessions around playful interactions as much as possible.
As far as portrait sessions are concerned, children are people from the ages of 3 to 15 years old. Ages younger than that are considered babies, and ages older than that are considered adults
Sure, as long as the group totals fewer than 12 people, it's a great way to spend time with people you care about, and save a little money in the process. It should be noted, however, that we cannot segment the session for each family. The whole group must be present for the session at the same time.
We recommend choosing comfortable clothing that makes you feel good, and beyond that, it only depends on the formality of your session. When it comes to color coordination, we recommend choosing from a pallet of colors, rather than strictly “matching” colors. For example, shades of blue and green, rather than everyone wearing blue jeans with a green shirt.
You can, but it isn’t recommended in most cases. We are also unable to guarantee there will be a suitably private place to change clothes.
