Maternity Sessions
Nine months goes by in the blink of an eye! Maternity sessions capture a precious moment in time. A moment right before life changes forever. These sessions work for mama alone, both parents, or the whole family with kids (with a whole variety of poses).
30 minutes:
$275 (plus tax) for 30 edited digital images of my choosing (I edit all the best ones that turn out). One outfit. Weekday evenings and weekend mornings only within Gig Harbor. I include the client in the editing process by sending sneak peeks with my two signature style. Some people prefer natural some my muted modern style that is more Boho (click on my FAQ page or blog to find out more and to se the two styles side by side). I then edit the rest of the album with the clients' choice. You will receive your photos within 7 days of the shoot in an email with a gallery link and download instructions to print anywhere you like.
60 minutes:
$450 (plus tax) for a full 60-75 minute shoot with 60+ edited digital images and unlimited wardrobe changes. I include the client in the editing process by sending sneak peeks with my two signature style. Some people prefer natural some my muted modern style that is more Boho (click on my FAQ page or blog to find out more and to se the two styles side by side). I then edit the rest of the album with the clients' choice. You will receive your photos within 7 days of the shoot in an email with a gallery link and download instructions to print anywhere you like.
Video Reel Add-on: I recently got a mount for my camera to hold my iPhone14 Pro, because if a photo is worth a thousand words, a video is priceless! I will have a video going the whole time of your session, and I will edit the video footage in a reel with music, capturing all the cuddles and smiles. Because when else will you have video footage of you all looking your best and loving on each other? My guess is never! If you have a favorite song, send me the youtube link and I can extract the music to use in the video, otherwise I will use my discretion. You choose vertical or horizontal. 1-minute edited video of your 30 minute session: $75. 2-minute edited video of a 60 minute session: $125. Example of a reel from a 30 minute family session here.
Style: Most couples want basic poses, some want to get more artistic, creative, and "goddess-y". Let me know your vision and I'll help make it a reality!
FAQs: Wondering what to wear? How to pose? What about weather? My FAQ page has it all!
Location: My blog is dedicated to helping clients choose a spot! Each entry highlights a different location, with examples of photos I've taken there, pros/cons, the time of day it works best for light, and other details. Be sure to click on "older posts" to see them all!
