FAQs

You’ve got questions…I’ve got answers.

Life happens, I get it. You can reschedule with 48 hours notice. Deposits are non-refundable, but they can be moved to your new date.
Yes, a 50% deposit saves your date. The remaining balance is due the day of your session.
I don’t offer discounts, but keep an eye out for mini sessions. They’re the most budget-friendly way to get some fresh photos.
Absolutely. Gift cards are available for any amount or any session. Just reach out and I’ll set it up.
You’ll get at least 50 edited photos per hour of shooting, and usually more.
Your gallery will be ready within 2–3 weeks. It may take a little longer during holidays and busy season, but I’ll always keep you in the loop.
You’ll get an email with a link to your private online gallery, where you can download everything and order prints.
I’ll remove temporary things like blemishes or scratches, but I never change bodies or natural features. The goal is always to capture you as you are.
I don’t share RAW files. Editing is a big part of my style, so every photo you get is finished and ready to print.

I’m based in Wilmington and photograph all over coastal North Carolina. Have somewhere else in mind? I’d love to make it happen. (Sessions more than 30 miles from Wilmington include a travel fee.)
I’m honestly a fan of a moody, cloudy day (and I’ll even shoot in a little rain). But if the weather isn’t cooperating, we can reschedule at no cost.
You can order prints, albums, and more right from your gallery. You’re welcome to print elsewhere too, but ordering through your gallery is the easiest way to get the best quality.
Then we’re right on track! I’m a big believer in letting kids be kids. Running, giggling, and even a little meltdown often make the best photos. No pressure for perfect smiles here.
Yes! Pets are part of the family. Just give me a heads-up so I can plan for it.
Don’t worry, I’ll send you a what-to-wear guide as soon as you book. And if you’re still stuck, send me a few options and I’ll help you pick.
Wherever feels like you! The beach, downtown, a field, your own backyard. I’ll send you some location ideas, and we’ll choose a spot that fits the vibe you want.
You’re in good hands. Most of my clients say they’re awkward in front of the camera, and they’re always surprised by how easy it ends up feeling. I’ll guide you the whole time, so all you have to do is show up and be yourself.
