Can we bring props? pets?

Absolutely! Props can add personality and meaning to your photos, whether it's a favorite toy, a blanket, balloons, or anything special to you.

Just let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly and make sure everything is captured beautifully.

What if it rains or the weather isn't ideal?

Don't worry! We can reschedule outdoor sessions if the weather isn't cooperating but..... I'm happy to shoot in a variety of weather conditions, including light rain, because sometimes those sessions turn out to be the most magical. If the weather becomes unsafe or too extreme, we can always reschedule. My goal is to make sure your session is enjoyable and comfortable, no matter the forecast.
