Start by reaching out through my Contact page! Tell me what kind of session you have in mind, your preferred date, and who will be joining you. We’ll discuss the details and next steps.
Choose clothing you feel comfortable and confident in. Coordinating colors usually work better than matching outfits exactly. Soft neutrals, earthy tones, and subtle patterns photograph beautifully. Consider the setting and weather, and feel free to reach out if you’d like help choosing!
You don’t need to know how to pose! I’ll guide you throughout the session and help you feel comfortable. There’s room for movement, laughter, and simply being yourself.
Kids are welcome to be kids! A little movement and personality can make for some of the sweetest photos. Arrive with everyone rested and fed when possible, and bring along a favorite comfort item or a small, mess-free snack.
Absolutely—pets are part of the family! Let me know ahead of time so we can plan for them and choose an appropriate location. Bring a leash, treats, and anything that helps them stay comfortable.
If the weather could affect safety or the quality of your outdoor photos, we’ll connect before your session to discuss a backup plan or rescheduling. North Dakota weather can be unpredictable, so communication is key!
My typical turnaround time is about one week. Timing may vary by session type and season, and I’ll share your expected delivery timeframe when we book.
A $25 deposit is required to reserve your date, with the remaining balance due 48 hours before the session. I’ll share the payment details and booking terms before you confirm.
You’ll receive a link to your online gallery when your photos are ready. Your quote will explain how many images are included, your download options, and whether prints or additional images are available to purchase.
Please contact me as soon as possible if your plans change. Cancellation/rescheduling notice must be made 24 hours prior to scheduled session. Any session cancelled with less than 24 hours' notice is subject to not being rescheduled and non-repayment of deposit and session fees.
Yes! Let me know about important groupings, meaningful details, or ideas you’d love to include. Inspiration photos are welcome and help me understand what you’re drawn to, while we create images that feel like you.
What types of sessions do you offer?
From families, seniors, and milestones to sports, farm life, and special events, I love capturing the people and moments that matter to you. Visit my Sessions page to explore the options. Have something different in mind? Let’s chat!
How much does a session cost?
Pricing depends on the type of session, its length, and who’s participating. Reach out with your ideas, and I’ll provide a personalized quote so you know what to expect before booking.
Where will my session take place?
We’ll work together to choose a location that fits your vision—whether that’s a country setting, a favorite outdoor spot, or somewhere meaningful to you. I’m based in Fessenden, ND and serve Central North Dakota and surrounding areas. Ask about travel availability and any additional fees for locations farther away.
