Q.   What are your prices and packages?
A.   We have a different idea for our packages, we let you build your own! You can spend as much or as little as you want, but most of our seniors spend between $300 and $500.
 
Q.   Will I get a yearbook photo?
A.   Your yearbook photo is free if you book a sitting with us, even if you choose not to purchase any other photos.
 
Q.   What should I wear?
A.   You will want photos that reflect your personality so wear what you think you look best in, especially for outdoor location shots. Your traditional studio portraits will look best if you wear what your parents think you look best in! Enough said. If you're in sports, uniforms are great ideas too!
 
Q.   Can I have photos done with my car? Friends? Pets?
A.   Certainly! Remember to wash and wax that car, group photos are nice but try and coordinate your outfits so that your faces stand out and not your outfits, bring along your pet but remember if I get bit, your prices go up! (just kidding)
 
Q.   Can I have photos done with my horse?
A.   Yes! We encourage equestrians here, we have plenty of room for horse trailers, we have a pasture and plenty of beautiful backgrounds to choose from here.
 
Q.   Should I wear makeup?
A.   We encourage girls to wear slightly more makeup than they usually do and for guys if you have to wear a little cover-up, go for it. Remember, they wear a lot of makeup on ESPN. Slight retouching of photos is free, but extensive removal of breakouts may cost a little more. Bring a hairbrush and makeup along for touchups during the shoot as well.
 
Q.   How many photos will you take?
A.   I will treat your session as if it's the only thing I have to do that day, and I will take as many photos as it takes to get a large number to choose from.
 
Q.   When should I book my session?
A.   Please book as early as possible, outdoor sessions are best done in late spring and early summer, and those sessions fill up quickly. You will need to pre-pay your session fee to reserve a time slot for the session.
 
Q.   What if I don't like my pictures?
A.   If you don't love your pictures we will gladly shoot more photos or refund your money. Once you take your proof book out of our studio there will be no refunds for any reason.
 
Q.   Who should I bring with me?
A.   " You should bring along a parent, or legal guardian, as they will be able to help you feel comfortable, and they may have suggestions for your hair and clothing to make your images more personal.
 
Q.   When will I get my pictures?
A.   Your completed proof book will be available to you in 1 - 2 weeks. These are yours to keep! Your final print order will take up to 5 weeks from the time you place an order.
 
 
 
Q.   Do you have wedding packages?
A.   We really only offer one service for weddings, but it can be tweaked to meet your needs. We offer you an optional engagement session, which consists of a studio session and/or a location session. For each of these sessions you will receive four 4x6 photos in an attractive folder. We reserve the right to pick the best photos for the folders. Our wedding session is an all-day time slot on our calendar and when you book with us we will arrive at the location of the wedding at least one hour prior to the ceremony. If you choose to, you can have your formal pictures done prior to the ceremony, and we will adjust our arrival time accordingly.
 
Q.   What photos will we receive after the ceremony?
A.   Our wedding session includes at no extra cost a 4x6 wedding proof book. This will be available to you 3 weeks after the date of the ceremony and is yours to keep. When you have had enough time to view the proof book you may then choose to buy an optional wedding album of 8x10 photos. The album, pages and mats are provided to you at our cost, and you may pick as many 8x10's to fill the album as you like. The 8x10's for the album may be purchased at our current prices. You may also choose to buy any additional reprints or enlargements from us at any time.
 
Q.   How do you do the wedding session?
A.   We have what is currently called a photojournalistic style when we shoot a wedding but what that really means is that we shoot both the important shots prior to, during, and after the ceremony as well as candid shots that occur that photographers must keep their eyes open for. These are sometimes the most favored photos of a wedding album.
 
Q.   Do you also photograph the reception?
A.   We treat this as an option for you as well, this is because some couples need to keep their costs low. However, if you choose to have us shoot the reception, we will either provide our own transportation to the reception or you may choose to have us ride with you in your limo and we can take advantage of the beautiful natural backdrops in the area for more photos of the wedding party, bride and groom, etc.
 
Q.   How can we be sure that all of our important photographs will be taken?
A.   We like to meet in advance of the wedding with you at least once but preferably twice to make sure that I have a good working knowledge of the flow of your ceremony and can then plan the event for lighting, backgrounds, and other considerations.
 
 
 
Q.   What other photographs do you do?
A.   We do a variety of studio and location shots. These include but are not limited to: Pet portraiture, Children's portraiture, Group portraits, Prom portraits, CD covers, Equestrian events, school sporting events and more!
 
Q.   Can I hire you to take photos of my child in a specific event i.e. sporting, equestrian, etc?
A.   Contact us and we'll talk about it; we would like to hear from you!
