What direction does your house face?* Time of day for the session is dependent on when your front porch is shaded.
Tell me a little about the graduating senior:* What kinds of things define you right now? What consumes your time when you aren't studying? Is there a certain place you ALWAYS eat? Do you always have a QT fountain Coke in your hand? Video games? Movies? Tik Tok? Skate Boarding? Reading? Painting? Your car? Whatever it is, tell me here!! If you prefer to do a more "traditional" portrait session with great photos of you smiling and looking awesome in a pretty place in great outfits and no actual props, let me know that too!
When would you like to schedule the session for?* Please let me know what days of the week are best, as well as time of day. Dates work great too! ***NOTE: Most children/toddlers/babies are happiest and most cooperative in the mornings. Mornings outside can be quite chilly and kids can’t hide their discomfort with the cold on their face. Anything under 60 degrees is a risk with children under 6. I am working with the best lighting from the sun and the later/warmer it gets, the harsher the light which is least advised.
You know your child best but wanted to share that "expert advice" with you. For children under 6, Studio or June/September outdoor mornings are best.
Please list the name, gender, age & characteristics of everyone to be photographed* If you aren't comfortable giving me your age, please list the children's ages (if applicable) and note "adult" for the adults. For characteristics, please let me know if the baby is sitting unassisted, standing or walking. Please also note if anyone has any physical limitations.
Preferred Colors, Styles, Locations, Backgrounds, Suggested Shots, Groupings, Props & other notes* Please tell me the desired poses/groupings you may like to try. Start with the most important shots you know you want. This is especially important to note for mini sessions with limited time/poses. Which Holiday background do you want?
Newborn & Baby Session Details...* Preferred Color Palette? Do you have a Nursery Theme or Pop Culture Theme or design you'd like to explore using? Let me know if you have any preferred props, blankets, outfits, in mind. And any other notes you have about the overall look & feel.
Birthday Session Details...* Preferred Color Palette? Do you have a Nursery Theme or Pop Culture Theme or design you'd like to explore using? Any props or Balloons or banners? Let me know if you have any outfits in mind. Are you doing a cake smash (cake provided by you)? And any other notes you have about the overall look & feel.
Do you know what you will be wearing? If so, please describe:* If you're not exactly sure, let me know if you're thinking casual or dressy and if you are leaning towards a color theme. Are you going for "dark & dramatic or elegant" or "light and airy"? Let me know if you wish to do any outfit changes too.
Do you have any other thoughts or ideas you'd like to share? Do you have pets? I have 2 Maltipoos. Do you read, love movies, play Pickleball or binge watch TikTok?
