This is covered in more detail in my contract (which you'll receive after booking) but to keep it brief, sometimes sh*t happens, and that's okay! If you need to reschedule due to illness or some other unforeseen incident, all I ask is for some common decency and as much notice given as possible.
If it looks like we can't go ahead with the session due to the weather, I will contact you on the day and we can work out a plan b!

what happens if we need to reschedule?

The first and most important thing to remember is; BE COMFORTABLE!!
Show up as yourself so we can capture this time of your life in all its glory!
Favourite jeans and a t-shirt? Perfect! Something a bit fancier? Also perfect!
As long as you feel like you!
If you're still not sure and nothing comes to mind, aim for neutral, earthy tones and metallics. These colours look beautiful in almost every setting. Think burnt orange, sky blue, mustard...
Pick fabrics that move and flow with you, and avoid any large logos and text or busy patterns and prints if possible. Feel free to accessories with belts, hats, scarves etc.
For families, try to keep your colour-scheme limited to four complimentary colours.
And unless you're going for the matchy matchy look, try to avoid wearing the same colours as everyone else. This can sometimes make it hard to see where one person starts and the other finishes!

If you're still stuck, reach out and I can give you some ideas!

What do we wear?

Timings will vary depending on what you book (see my packages) however I usually start with a bit of a chat so we can get to know each other more.
From there, we'll just see where the session takes us!
I'm very flexible and can usually work around uncooperative children, bursts of rain, unruly clothing etc.!
It will all be very relaxed and unstructured... I'll give you a few prompts, you'll look fabulous. Done!

FAQs

In my contract, it says you'll have your online gallery within 14 days, however I'm usually pretty excited to take a closer look and get editing done, so in most cases it will be well before this!
You'll receive a link to an online gallery where you can check out the photos, 'favourite' them (so I know which ones you like the most and which ones you'd like in your package) and share the link with friends or family. You'll be able to download full sized images and web images for social media sharing.

When do we get our photos?
