FAQ
Do you release the images for printing?
Yes, all edited files are sent over electronically within one week of the session and are released for you to print as you wish.
Where are the sessions done?
My home studio is in New Lenox, IL. I am indoors for sessions from Nov-March and then move back to outdoor sessions April-October. I use a variety of location in joliet, new lenox, manhattan, mokena and frankfort, IL.
What time of day are sessions? Is there a charge for weekends?
All outdoor sessions are done around sunset time during the week. Indoor sessions are daytime during the week. I have limited weekends available throughout the year and there is an additional $50.
What kind of gear do you use?
I use a canon mark IV. For most sessions I use a 50mm 1.2 and will rotate through a 35mm or 100mm if needed.
Who do you recommend I order prints through?
I always refer clients to mpix.com.
When is the best time to book my newborn session?
Newborn sessions are best booked in your 2nd trimester. I will hold your due date and then we schedule as soon as you deliver within the first 14 days. If you have already delivered, please reach out since I may have open spots that week to add you onto. Newborn sessions are Monday through Friday daytime hours.
