The FAQs

Film photography brings something special to your photos—timeless tones, a soft, dreamlike quality, and a depth that simply can’t be replicated with digital photography. It captures light beautifully, with true-to-life colors and a painterly feel that turns your images into lasting works of art.

For me, shooting film is about slowing down and being fully present. Each frame is intentional, which means I’m more focused on the quiet, meaningful moments that matter most—real connection, honest emotion, and the beauty of your everyday. It’s one of the things that sets me apart as an Oklahoma City family photographer.

You’ll receive your images in a beautiful private online gallery, where you can view everything and choose a collection that best suits your needs. Whether you're looking for just a few favorites or the full set, you’ll have the flexibility to purchase what feels right—making it easy to enjoy and preserve your images however you choose. You’ll also have access to professional photo prints, albums, and wall art so you can bring your photos off the screen and into your home.

You will receive your fully edited photography gallery within 3–4 weeks of your session.

I don’t! And here’s why—fashion is incredibly personal. I want you to look and feel like yourself in your photos, not like you’re imitating a trend that won’t feel authentic to your family down the road. These images should reflect you—your personality, your style, and what makes your family feel like your family. I’m happy to provide personalized wardrobe recommendations, but at the end of the day, the best choice is one that feels natural and comfortable for you.

The most important thing? Wear something that makes you feel like you. I recommend neutral, earthy tones and soft textures that photograph beautifully and keep the focus on your family’s connection. Avoid bold logos or distracting patterns, and dress for movement—because we’ll be playing, snuggling, and capturing all the in-between moments! If you’d like more guidance, I have a style guide for photoshoots to help you feel confident in your choices.

We’ll start with a quick phone call to get to know each other, go over the details, and chat about what you’re envisioning for your session. Once you’re ready to move forward, you’ll secure your date by signing a photography contract and paying the session fee. From there, we’ll plan a session that’s relaxed & fun.

About 3–4 weeks after your session, you’ll receive a slideshow of your images. From there, you can choose from three collections, each including a set number of digital image files and a print credit to use in your gallery store—making it easy to bring your images into your home and enjoy them every day.

I don’t typically offer mini photography sessions because they just don’t allow the time and space needed to truly connect with your family and capture the love, personality, and connection that make your photos meaningful. That said, I do offer Personality Portraits a couple of times a year—these are shorter sessions designed specifically for kids—and you can join my email list to be the first to hear about them. I will occasionally open a limited number of spring mini sessions, but only to those on my email list. You can sign up here!

If you’re worried your child can’t handle a full session, I get it—but I promise, they can. My sessions are rooted in play and movement—not stiff poses or forced smiles. This relaxed approach is what allows me to create the most natural and beautiful images of your family.
