Weather can be a bit unpredictable at times, and we gotta deal with it! If we planned on shooting outdoor and we're face rainy weather, we can reschedule for a better day.
I monitor the weather forecasts 2 to 3 days before our session. If it looks like the weather won't cooperate, I'll get in touch with you as soon as possible.
What happens if it rains on our session day?
Question 1 / 6
Life can be unpredictable, I get it! If someone falls ill or an emergency comes up, please let me know as soon as possible. I'll do my best to find a new date that works for us.
Remember that your retainer fee is non- refundable, but it can be transferred to a future session. However, if you cancel entirely, it will not be refunded.
What happens if we need to reschedule?
Question 2 / 6
Maternity sessions typically last around 1 to 1.5 hours. This allows us ample time to explore various locations, try different poses, and capture the special bond you share with your little one on the way, without feeling rushed.
My aim is to create a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere where you can relax, be yourself, and let the joy of this precious moment glow naturally.
How long does the maternity session last?
Question 3 / 6
Two should be the minimum amount of outfits you bring so you can get a little variety, but 3 is my sweet spot.
The golden rule here is to wear something that makes you feel comfortable and confident!
How many outfits do we need to bring?
Question 4 / 6
Yes, travel fees apply for locations beyond [X] miles from [your location]. The fee is calculated at $[X] per mile beyond this radius.
