BEFORE THE SESSION
Soon after booking your session, you'll receive an invoice for the non refundable deposit, and a contract. The $100 non refundable deposit will be applied to your session fee.
Closer to your session date you'll receive your questionnaire. Champagne and confetti are provided for each grad who requests it on their questionnaire.
You'll receive a few emails leading up to your session, these will have helpful tips on what to wear, and how to best prepare.
DURING THE SESSION
Aim to show up 5-10 minutes before your session start time. A lot of times I'll be wrapping up another session at our starting point. This will give you time to change shoes or do last minute hair brushing etc.
I will have a wagon with me to transport our belongings with us. I will also supply the champagne and confetti if you request.
We will walk around your requested area(s) and I will pose you and give you prompts to grab those easy candid shots.
AFTER YOUR SESSION
After your session I will be deep into editing for awhile. Sessions take 3-4 weeks to complete. If you would like to pay for the rush editing, you can have your session ready in 1 week.
Your session will come with X number of photos, depending on which you book. Your completed gallery will likely have at least double the number of photos to choose from. This year will be a little different. I will not send out proofing galleries and wait for your selections. I will complete final edits on all image options and upload the full gallery for your immediate selections.
Final images will have people removed from the background, skin touch ups, and color/ lighting edits.

I have 3 different levels for my portrait sessions. With each level you increase the number of locations, outfits, and digital images included with your package.
Professional hair and make up for sessions is not a requirement, but it is highly recommended. I'm happy to put you in contact with professionals if you'd like.
The mini session includes a half hour of shoot time, 15 high resolution digital images and 1 general location for your session.

Purdue sessions are fully booked for May 2023! I'm so thankful for all of the people who booked with me and those still inquiring. Unfortunately I cannot take on any more grad sessions. I know it can be challenging to find photographers, so I linked a few referrals for you. Good luck and congrats to the grad!
