Let's tell your story. Remember how it felt.

Photography gives us a view into the vulnerable pieces of life where love truly lies, naked and raw - allowing you to remember how it felt, for generations to come. Art, that’s full with love.

What memory do you want preserved? Easy answer, all of it.

After all, these are the good old days. When you look back, you’ll want to remember your life in motion, the milestones, and everything in between. We aim to make memories during our time together. So let us meet you where are you, where your love is the loudest.

What does our Session include?

Sessions typically can last between 30 minutes to 2 hours. You can expect to receive on average, 50 images per hour we’re together. You will receive a digital gallery with high resolution and social media friendly versions. You receive unlimited downloads for the lifetime of the gallery (6 months), full print rights and access to our print shop. Prior to your session, you can expect us to spend time getting to know you and the loves you’d like joining us. Our portrait sessions are aimed to encapsulate your life in motion, your everyday joys, milestones, and everything in between. Planning as a team with you as our holy grail of study material is our first step.

What should we wear?

We want you to feel like you when we’re together. Our best advice is to wear what you feel your best in, and are most comfortable. Past that, we do share our style guide to help with brainstorming ideas!

Do you travel?

Yes! Travel fees are location dependent and determined on a case by case basis. If you’re opting for an adventure (firstly, take us with you, please), additional travel fees may include, but are not limited to: mileage, fuel, hotel or accommodations, flights, rental vehicle, transportation, food, baggage fees, parking fees, travel stipend, and other related expenses, if applicable. We will let you know if your desired location requires travel fees!

What if it rains on our date or we need to cancel/reschedule?

Life happens & weather! If you need to cancel or reschedule, make sure to let us know early on. We try to be as flexible as possible and we can find a new time that works for all of us. Make sure to peek at your contract for full details on cancellations and reschedules. In terms of rain reschedules, rain dates are often pre-scheduled because it's the Midwest and sometimes we can observe what we like to call, 'whiplash weather'. Hello random unpredictable thunderstorms! We always try to lock in a scheduled date + a rain-date if we are currently in a rainy season at the time of booking.

What if my kids aren’t cooperating or feeling up for photos?

This is a big reason why we aim for a lifestyle approach in our sessions as well as why we say we want to make a memory, while we’re with you. Considering your families favorite things to do together (go to the outdoor theater, an ice cream date, swimming at the lake, a boat ride, etc.) - we want to meet you where you are. And most importantly - the kids run the show. We want your kids to take the wheel at our sessions, and find ways to steer the ship in a “this is us” direction, vs. “look at us”. If they want to hunt for ants, let’s do it! Or if they want to sit on dad’s lap and be the captain of the boat - we’re doing it!

When should we plan for maternity/newborn sessions?

Maternity & newborn sessions - run on babies schedule. We know the babes run the show. Our biggest suggestions for maternity sessions, are to aim between 6.5-7.5 months for a number of reasons: 1. we want you to be comfortable if you opt for a space that requires some walking or extended foot travel; 2. sometimes babes surprise us and show up earth-side when we least expect it ('hello' to Nicole's first born who graced us an entire month early). Newborn sessions run on babe's schedule - which we know can be different for everyone and change as the days go. Our top suggestion would be to schedule those after the first AM nap - typically between 10A-11A!

Do you have an off season for portraits?

We do not have an off season in full. Memories never stop - and we don’t want to miss them; however, we do have limited availability from November - February. This is our time with family to fill our cups so we can pour from a full cup when the busier season kicks in. We highly recommend locking in your session date at least 3 months in advance for this reason.

How do we lock in your calendar?

If it's us you want on your dream team for your best day ever, we require a non-refundable retainer and a signed contract to lock in your date. Portrait photography is on a 50/50 payment schedule. The 1st payment is a non-refundable retainer and is due at signing to lock in your date. The final payment is due 1 week prior to the session date.
