FAQ
-
Parents are required to remain with their child throughout the session and then change clothing (if required), and drop them off for the day. This approach aims to prevent any disruptions to classroom activities, ensuring that children are not pulled from class and then required to return.
-
Yes. Especially if your little one likes to hold onto you. I can photograph your child in your arms without your face showing if you’re not camera-ready. So pick a top that coordinates with your child’s outfit and we’ll shoot the snuggle. Love a snuggle shot!
Keep in mind that the backdrop is only a few feet wide, so I’m not able to shoot more than two at a time. -
Yes, you may bring siblings to the session. Please keep in mind that I have a small space to shoot in, so they’ll need to snuggle up!

Book your child’s session.
Sessions are $25 and include a print. Each child will be photographed for about 10 minutes. Appointments allow five minutes of buffer time.
what to wear
While wardrobe is a part of preparing for picture day, a comfortable child who loves what they are wearing is likely to shine in front of the camera!
These session photographs are black and white only, so colours don’t matter as much as texture and fit. Avoid busy patterns and logos. Think classic and simple. A clean, wrinkle free white t-shirt looks great. Sessions will not be full body, so don’t worry about footwear.
Hair. As cute as bedhead is, try to resist putting your child to bed with wet hair the day before. You will be with your child at their session, so you will be able to ensure they look just right when it is time for their close up!
