Below you will find a list of questions that I frequently get asked. These questions can also better prepare you for your next session with me. If you do not see the answer to your question, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.

Sessions are approximately 60-90 minutes for a full session and 30 minutes for a mini session.
What is a mini session?
Mini sessions were created to allow you to get portraits taken at a lower price point with less images.

You can follow me on Facebook or join my newsletter to stay up to date on all the mini session opportunities.

It is the day of my wedding, and I have decided that I would like you to stay longer. Is that an option?
