"Jessica was not only super professional, she took amazing pictures! I have used a lot of photographers all over the country, and she got the pictures back faster than anyone I know. They were beautiful and she was a pleasure to work with. I will definitely use her again!"

What To Wear
Try to avoid bright reds, oranges and other neon-type colors, especially in natural settings. If one person is wearing a pattern, another person can wear a solid. You can follow this pattern with larger groups, or everyone can wear solids. Avoid large logos. Mixing and matching neutral tones works best. While jewelry is great, Apple watches don't look good in your photos. Leave your phones in the car or have one bag to tote around, bulky phones and keys in your pockets aren't a good look either. Feel free to bring things you'd like to incorporate in your session; for example, a neutral blanket that coordinates with your color scheme, champagne or beers for engaged couples, a favorite toy or chair for a child, animals if they are well behaved, etc.
Booking
To secure your spot, a $100 nonrefundable retainer is required. This is credited towards your total. Clients are permitted to have one rescheduled session if the request is at least 48 hours in advance, except for sudden severe weather. After one permitted rescheduling, any further rescheduling will require an additional non-refundable fee of $50 to hold your new spot. If there is no rescheduled date within 30 days of the cancellation, you forfeit all deposits, and it cannot be applied to any future sessions.
There will be a travel fee for portrait sessions outside of El Paso County, the fee varies based on the location.
For family sessions that will have multiple family units, there will be an additional $75 fee.
Session Info
Please be on time for your session. If you are running late, that will cut into your session time and we will still be done as originally planned. Arrive ready and have your things prepared. Showing up a few minutes before our scheduled start time will help you ease into the session without rushing. This is especially important for mini sessions. The 20 minutes will fly by and being late will affect your session.
Sessions are held at a location of your choice, or I can help recommend one based on the style you'd like. Almost all sessions are done outdoors, and the best time for outdoor lighting is either in the morning or 1-2 hours before sunset.
Please allow one week for your gallery to be ready.​
