The session

Q. Where does the session take place?

A. At your house, a local park, a playground, or another location of your choice.

Q. How long do the sessions last?

A. Most sessions last 30-60 minutes, or longer if needed.

Q. What time will you arrive for my session?

A. I will be there 15-30 minutes before your scheduled session time to set up.

Q. What time should I arrive to an on location session?

A. Plan on arriving 10 minutes early, Unexpected events can occur and that way you are on time.

Clothing

Q. What do you reccomend for my family to wear?

A. Simple clothing is best and keeps the focus on the subject. For more than one person in the image, solid colors are generally better than patterns, and definately stay away from logos, and other busy patterns. Casual clothing is best. If there is more than one person in the image, it is important the clothing co-ordinates with each other. Small children and babies tend to get fussy with more than one outfit change, so it is best to keep it to just one look.

Q.What colors are best for Black & White Portraits?

A. For Black & White images, darker colors are preferred and help draw attention to the face and the subjects of the images.
