Child Sessions typically last an hour but vary by the number of children and children's comfort level. A full Family Session may last up to 2 hours but is built around the needs of the family and number of family members being photographed. Girls sizes 2t through 14, women sizes S through XL, and boys under size 7 may be dressed from my Client Closet.
Newborn Family Session Retainer - $250
Newborn Sessions take place in studio and are intended as a Family Session. Parents, siblings, and even grandparents may be part of the session. Newborns are not posed alone, but are instead posed while lovingly held. Newborn sessions typically last 2 to 3 hours to allow for breaks, feeding, changing, etc. and are typically done within the first 10 days after birth. Moms are invited to select a gown from my Client Closet. The maternity friendly gowns I have are especially comfortable and fitting for post-partum.
Senior Family Session Retainer - $250
Graduating is a huge change in the lives of most families and it is important to capture that before children move into adulthood and out of their parents' homes. Therefore, Senior Family Sessions are broken into two sessions. One session creates the portraits needed for the yearbook with school specifications met. They may be outdoor or indoor depending on school expectations. A second session creates portraits of the senior with their family members. This Family Session is shot in studio only and needs to be scheduled within 3 weeks of the Senior Session.
On Location Session Retainer - $275
On Location Sessions take place in an outdoor location chosen by the family within the Rochester area. I have many gorgeous spots I can suggest! If there is a fee to use the location, that must be paid by the family in addition to the Session Retainer. Child Sessions typically last an hour and Family Sessions typically last about an hour to an hour and a half depending on breaks needed for children. Please note: Wardrobe from my Client Closet is not available for sessions outside of my studio.
