I work during the week, do you offer weekend sessions?

I do not offer weekend sessions. I do offer evening sessions on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. I schedule morning sessions Monday-Friday.

How do I get to your studio?

My address is located on the contact page of this site. If you require further directions just email me and I will be happy to send them to you.

What should I bring?

I offer both traditional and contemporary styles so bring several changes of clothes for your child. If there are any toys/blankets that are special to you, feel free to bring those also.

Excessive clothing on babies is sometimes distracting. Babies also don’t like a lot of clothing changes so just keep it simple.

How long will it take to get my portraits?

I have a frame for a 4×6, is that an option?
