"Brittany was such a pleasure to work with for our family's pictures! She offered great suggestions on locations and was so sweet to our toddlers (1 and 3.5 years old)! There were quite a few times that the kiddos weren't cooperating and Brittany didn't miss a beat! She had them smiling, giggling and captured some wonderful family moments! I plan to continue to have Brittany capture our family in photos for years to come!" - Becky

FAQs

What should we wear?

Ahead of your session I’ll provide you a guide that includes tips on what to wear. You’ll also receive access to my client closet which includes maternity and non-maternity dresses.

When will we receive the exact location of the session?

Some locations are pre-set, while others are determined closer to the session to guarantee the best setting. E.g. In the fall I'll scout where has the best/most vibrant foliage within the general area provided.

I have no idea what to do with my hands, will you help me?

Don’t worry, I’ve got you! I’ll guide you through the entire session and I promise you’ll leave with a smile on your face!

My kids can’t sit still - what do we do?

I love the energy that kids bring! I’m well versed in working with children and will work some magic to get them engaged in a fun way.

Can I share my images on social media?

Absolutely! Be sure to print your photos, too! 

Can I bring m y dog to include in the photos?

Absolutely! Unless otherwise noted, dogs are allowed. Please bring treats to help keep their attention.
