Short & Sweet
This is the perfect option for just about any type of session! Short & Sweet is especially popular for small groups and solo portraits, but it’s also great for fast-paced sessions with little ones or anyone looking for something a little more budget-friendly.
While 20 minutes might sound short, it’s actually a great amount of time for babies, antsy kids, or anyone who doesn’t want to spend a long time in front of the camera. We’ll keep things moving, get plenty of variety, and make the most of our time together!
Session Details:
20 minutes
1 outfit per person
Recommended: Less than 5 people
20 digitally edited images + personalized gallery
Locations: Valley Springs, Angels Camp, Murphy's, San Andreas, or any area that's within 20 miles of San Andreas.
Starts at $120.00
The Full Experience
This is for those who want to slow things down and really tell a story through their photos. With a full session, we have plenty of time to try different poses, locations, and ideas without feeling rushed. It’s perfect for families, expecting moms, couples, or anyone wanting a little more variety from their session. You’ll receive lots of photos, and if you’d like, we can even add some short videos! It’s a great option for capturing a special moment, a growing family, or simply this season of life.
Session Details:
45 minutes - 1 hour
1-2 outfits per person
Detail shots (props encouraged!)
40+ digitally edited images + personalized gallery + Up to 3 edited videos (if requested)
Locations: You can choose a local location or we can go somewhere a little farther out! I’m always up for exploring a new spot that fits your vision. A travel fee may apply for locations farther away.

FAQ
1. How would you describe your photography style?
My editing style stays true to color, keeping skies blue and grass green, with just a touch of warmth. The goal is simple: natural, timeless photos that still feel like you.
2. Do you require a deposit/retainer?
A nonrefundable retainer is required at the time of booking to officially secure your session date. This retainer goes toward the total cost of your session and is what saves your spot on my calendar. The remaining balance will be due before your session.
3. What should I wear?
You are encouraged to wear whatever makes you feel the most confident and comfortable. I recommend avoiding clothing with large logos, bold prints, or overly bright colors, as they can be distracting in photos. If multiple people will be photographed, coordinated outfits always photograph beautifully and help create a more cohesive look. For expecting moms, fitted dresses are a great option to help highlight your bump. If you need additional help with outfit planning, please message me directly and I’d be more than happy to help!
4. Do you give RAW/unedited images?
Taking your photos is not only my job, but also one of my artistic passions. Every part of your session, from planning, photographing, editing, and delivering your images is an important step in my creative process. Because of this, I do not send unedited photos, as they do not fully represent my work or reflect how your final images are intended to look. Unless we have agreed to it and it is stated in your contract. I ask that the final edited images do not be altered.
5. Do you have any location recommendations?
I have a handful of favorite locations!
- Hogan Lake - Valley Springs
- Murphy's Park & Creek - Murphys
- Calaveras Big Trees - Arnold
- Angels Creek - Angels Camp
- Micke Grove Park - Lodi
6. Do you help with posing? What if I feel awkward in front of the camera?
Absolutely! You don't have to know how to pose or be comfortable in front of the camera. I'll help guide you when needed, but I also like to let things happen naturally so your photos don't feel overly posed. My goal is for you to feel comfortable, have fun, and actually enjoy the experience! I always come prepared with a Pinterest board filled with different poses and ideas we can choose from.
The Process
Step 01
Inquire through my website, or by messaging me on social media, text message, or email. Please state the session type you're wanting and the package type you are interested in. As well as any other information you have and want to share: preferred locations, date(s), etc. I'll respond within 24 hours.
Step 02
Booking your session take only two things: confirming your session through an email I will send you and signing a session agreement. Some sessions require a nonrefundable retainer that must be paid prior to your session being officially booked. By doing these steps, your session will be officially booked and on my calendar.
Step 03
Show up at the session date, location, and time. Have the best session ever!
Step 04
The fun doesn't end when your session does! You'll receive 1–3 sneak peeks within 12 hours, giving you a first look at your memories while you wait. Full galleries for regular and mini sessions are almost always delivered within 3-10 days, with your exact delivery timeline detailed in your session agreement.
