Frequently asked questions.

How far in advance should I book my shoot?

If you’d like a weekend session, reserve 2-3 months in advance. Weekdays, I shoot Tuesday-Thursdays and can possibly accommodate as soon as 2 weeks in advance. Book as early as possible to get the date you want.

For the holiday season (October & November sessions) the dates can be booked online and are launched in late August and sell out in days. Join my email list (at the bottom of this page) to be notified of my holiday launch.

The studio is closed each December.

When should I book my maternity & newborn session?

In your 2nd trimester. I recommend doing maternity photos during week 30-34. For newborn photos, I photograph those in studio (or in-home for an add’l fee) during baby’s 7th - 14th day of life. I only accept TWO newborn reservations per month, so its best to plan as far ahead as possible.

If you’re already delivered, it doesn’t hurt to see if we can squeeze you in, otherwise, we can do a milestone session for day 100 of baby’s life :).

Do you offer mini sessions?

Seasonally I do offer mini sessions, but mostly they are reserved for my VIP list members. Join my email list (below) so you can be one of the 1st to know on public release mini session days!

Do you offer in-home photo sessions?

Yes I do. I can travel to your home that is within 15 miles of Arcadia, CA. In addition, I’ll need to vet your home prior to the session via video call or images to ensure we have enough natural light/background options for the type of shoot we’re doing.

Can I bring my dog to my photo session?

Yes, they’re part of the family! For in-studio sessions, there is an additional sitting fee for your small/medium dog. For outdoor sessions I’ll share with you which locations on my list are dog friendly, and there is no add’l sitting fee for them to join us for outdoor sessions.

I’m plus size, do you have anything I can wear in your dress collection?

Yes, of course! No matter what size clients are, they usually bring a selection of pieces from their own closet for the shoot and we’ll feather in pieces from my dress collection to create 2-4 custom looks for you. We’ll walk you through everything on the styling consultation call for your shoot.

Do you offer financing options or pre-booking for pre-planning my child’s milestones?

Yes, I offer 90-day 3-pay financing on all 2 and 3 milestone prepaid plans. For financing your shoot package, I offer a multi-pay, interest-free option for all balances over $2k. Must be on auto-pay through my payment system.
