Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a session typically last?
Sessions typically last from 1 to 2 hours depending on the type of session, though I don't watch the clock! These sessions are typically scheduled at golden hour, which is just after sunrise or just before sunset. If the sun isn't shining, cloudy and rainy days are awesome too.
How many photos will I receive?
This depends on the type of session. For a full hour session you will typically get 40- 80 pictures. A few factors come into play, I go through your photos and delete the eyes closed, blurry, blinking pictures. For mini session you will get 10-15 edited pictures depending on the type of mini session I am offering at that time.
Do you charge for travel?
If the location is over 30 miles from my home in Birdsboro, PA, there will be an extra mileage fee.
Unsure about locations?
If you have a special location in mind, location requests are welcome. I am always up for an adventure. Choosing a location can be difficult, so don't be afraid to ask for help. I can give you lots of location ideas.
What should I wear?
Wear something comfortable, fun, funky, glamorous; whatever feels right for you! Props and outfit changes are welcomed and encouraged. I have a changing tent so no need to worry.

How long does it take to get photos back?
You will get your photos back with in 4 weeks. Depending on my work load, I typically get your photos back to you sooner than 4 weeks. Within 24/48 hours I will give you a sneak peak of your edited photos that you can share with your family and friends.
What is included in a boudoir session ?
The session includes a $150 studio rental fee. You do not have to have your session at the studio. You can rent an Airbnb for your session. If you would like your session to take place somewhere else please notify me and we can discuss a fee change. You will receive a private album full of your photos to view and download as you please. The gallery will be password protected.
How do I know what to do or wear during the boudoir session?
During your session I will pose you from head to toe so no need to worry about that. I do not provide your wardrobe, if you are unsure what to wear please tell me I will gladly help you! If you are unsure where to purchase your wardrobe I will send you some places. You are welcome to take a look at my Pinterest for some ideas as well.
When should newborn photos take place?
Newborn photos typically take place around 7-20 days old. It truly depends on your comfort level. If you are not ready to have company that soon, that is completely fine. Some get newborn photos done around 1 month. It just depends on how you are adjusting.
How long are newborn sessions?
Newborn sessions are 1 hour long. BUT time may vary depending on the cooperation of the baby. Some babies are awake or fussy the entire session. THAT IS NORMAL. Please don’t stress. I do not watch the time, I will stay until I feel that we have captured enough photos of your baby that you will be happy with.
Can I gift someone a session?
Absolutely. Just fill out my contact form and specify that you would like to gift a session to someone. I will also make you a gift certificate if requested.
