FAQ’s

WHAT KIND OF PHOTOGRAPHER ARE YOU?

I’m a lifestyle family photographer, motherhood photographer and couple’s photographer.

Lifestyle photography has everything to do with capturing the emotion behind an image. I want you to feel it, not just see it.

Gone are the days where we look straight into the camera lens and pose perfectly for family portraits. It's time to embrace a relatable approach that celebrates a family's perfectly imperfect magical moments. It's the snuggles, the laughter, the candid moments, and sometimes even a meltdowns that needs to be captured.

I am an outdoor onsite photographer. On occasion, I’ll do indoor photo sessions that has an abundance of natural light. I don’t do studio photography. When you organically connect to who you are authentically, that is where the trust blossoms between you and the client.

WHERE WILL MY SESSION BE HELD?

I am an outdoor, on location photographer. I serve the greater Tampa Bay area, including Pinellas County, Hillsborough County and Pasco County. Together we will pick the perfect location.

For out of the area clients (including out of state), please reach out to me in the contact tab above to get a custom quote.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

Wear something that’s you and that you’re comfortable in. I have a full guide in this blog post with helpful tips to coordinate your outfits (if that applies) and recommended styles, colors, and ways to add in simple accessories.

WHAT IS A DIGITAL FILE?

Digital files are the digital versions of your photos. You can post them on social media, have them printed, make an album, even put them on a t-shirt. You’re only limited by your imagination. Your digital files are given to you in high-resolution (recommended for printing) and reduced resolution (recommended for websites and social platforms) and comes with a print release. We recommend backing up digital files purchased to an external hard drive, flash drive and/or to the cloud.

WILL I GET MY DIGITAL PHOTOS AFTER THE SHOOT?

Yes! High resolution digital files are included in pricing, minimum of 45 edited images but often there are more. Photos are presented in a private gallery for viewing and sharing with a print release. Additional prints, fine art, and custom gifts available.

WHEN, HOW, AND WHERE CAN I GET ADDITIONAL PHOTOS AND PRODUCTS?

Within 2-3 week of your session you’ll receive a link to a private online gallery. Inside your gallery is a full store where you can purchase additional prints, fine art, and custom gifts. No purchase is required, but it’s there for you if you want it.

HOW DO YOU CHOOSE WHICH IMAGES ARE IN MY GALLERY FROM OUR SHOOT?

I carefully take my time to go through each image and hand select the best ones that reflect my style and your and/or your family’s story. You will get a minimum of 45 edited digital images. Often there are many more that I include, lucky you!

HOW FAR OUT ARE YOU BOOKED?

I’m usually booked out a month or two but often open up more of my schedule when demand is high.

DO YOU OFFER MINI-SESSIONS?

Around the holidays I might do a mini session or two. I like to spend more intimate time getting to know my families and each individual and mini sessions don’t allow me to do that, so I try to not do them often.

HOW MUCH DOES ALL OF THIS COST?

My pricing is all inclusive pricing because we don’t think you should have to choose from all of your amazing photos! You pay one time for all of the digital images included in your package. Total cost for family and branding sessions are $475. A $100 deposit and signed contract is due at booking to secure your session date.

HOW DO I BOOK A SESSION WITH YOU, HALLE?
