It is very important we are on the same page from the beginning, and we connect on a level that allows me to be vulnerable in telling your story. I will not replicate images or create mood boards to pre plan a session in an exact way. I am a very free spirit who enjoys watching a session unfold organically and effortlessly. I will embrace the tantrums and chaotic natures of children, their free spirits and wander is what excited me the most. No need for stress or guilt if the session doesnβt run according to plan because the good news is- there is no plan. It always unfolds exactly how it is meant to.

I open my books in 3-month blocks. I generally book 3 to 6 months in advance so please be mindful when hoping to book for a session to touch base early to find out when I plan to release my next block of dates. I suggest Newborn sessions to be taken within the first 10 days of babies arrival and Maternity sessions to be taken between 28-35 weeks.

I am very much for embracing the weather conditions, and we know it can be very unpredictable. I will not move our session date for cold or overcast conditions.I will move it if it is unsafe.

If the weather is extreme and we are not able to move ahead, please understand there may be a wait to rebook in your session.
