FAQ - S.M. photography

You've got questions, I have answers

Do you have a contract?

Yes, I sure do. Your contract will be sent to you through email. Once the contract is signed, and your booking fee is paid, your session with be officially booked. If one or the other is missing, your session is not considered booked.

What if I have to reschedule or cancel?

Sessions are allowed to be rescheduled once by client. If session needs to be rescheduled a second time there will be a $75 invoice sent to your email, to move the date. If session needs to be canceled, booking fee is non-refundable. Any payment that has been received for a package, will be refunded within 48-72 hours.

What if I am late?

There is a 20 minute grace period after session start time. If you are past 20 minutes, there will be a $5 fee for every 10 minutes late.

Can additional family come, that is not in the session?

Addition people are allowed to come, but personal photos are prohibited from being taken during the session. If personal photos are taken there will be a $50 fine sent to your email.

What to expect:

.01

As a lifestyle newborn photographer, my goal is to capture real, raw images of your first few days or weeks with your baby. The most helpful way to get those are by using natural light. I ask that all curtains are open and blinds up. When I arrive I would like a tour of your main living space, bedrooms, and nursery to evaluate the best lighting. I ask for clear nightstands or end tables and for neutral color or white/Ivory bedding. (please no prints) If you don't have that, I am able to bring one.

Setting

.02

With lifestyle sessions, I want you to feel as comfortable as possible. Soft neutral solid colors are recommended. Please avoid prints and any yellow hues. Lifestyle sessions are very relaxed. If you need some examples please feel free to contact me @ Smphotography1009@yahoo.com

What to wear:

.03

Since there will be moments where baby is undressed, please keep your house at a warm but comfortable temperature, they do not get cold and upset. You do not need to wait to feed your baby until before the session. Baby can be awake for the lifestyle portion. If you have chosen to have some posed images, we can take a break, baby can eat, and then we can resume. If at any time at all during your session, you need a break, please tell me!

I can't wait to capture these moments for you!
