Questions
What should we wear for our family photo session?
We recommend coordinating colors rather than matching exactly, choosing soft neutrals or earth tones that complement your home decor. Bring multiple outfit options to find what photographs best during your session.
How early should we arrive for a newborn photography session?
Please arrive 15 minutes early to allow time for baby to adjust to the studio environment. We schedule newborn sessions when babies are typically most sleepy for optimal posing opportunities.
Do you offer outdoor photography options?
Yes, we have multiple scenic locations throughout the Denver Metro area including parks, gardens, and urban settings that provide beautiful natural backdrops for your portraits.
How long does a typical maternity session last?
Maternity sessions typically take 60-90 minutes, allowing time for outfit changes and multiple setup options. We recommend scheduling during morning hours when lighting conditions are most favorable.
What is your cancellation policy?
We require 48 hours notice for session rescheduling to avoid losing your deposit. Special arrangements can be made for emergencies or unexpected medical situations.
How many photos will we receive from our session?
Clients typically receive 30-50 fully edited images from standard sessions, with options to purchase additional edited photos or full session galleries if desired.
