when to book?

Certain times of year are particular busy for wedding and portrait photographers (summer and fall). Please contact me as early as possible to get the best availability. In the hustle and bustle of life (especially when welcoming a new baby) we can easily miss major milestones and wish we had more images from a certain period in time. Don’t forget to check out my packages that include several of the following suggestions!

wedding: book at least 6 months to 1 year before your desired date to ensure availability and time for an engagement session

maternity: 7 or 8 months, when the belly is very prominent

newborn: under 2 weeks, when they sleep more and will still ‘curl’

3 months: baby is smiling!

6 months: baby is rolling over and possibly sitting up

1 year: the first birthday is a momentous occasion!

toddler to teen: I highly recommend once a year because toddlers and children change so much from year to year! Why settle for cookie-cutter school photos?

high school senior year: a major turning point in a young adult’s life and a perfect time to take portraits that make them look and feel like a rock star!

family: I recommend a full portrait session every one or two years. Look for my Holiday family special for unique greeting cards.
