FAQs

  • You can book directly through my contact form or email me at hellodmp@outlook.com. I’ll get back to you within 24-48 hours to confirm availability and start planning your session.

  • I don’t require a deposit - instead, sessions are paid in full at the time of booking to reserve your date. This helps keep scheduling simple and ensures your spot is secured on my calendar.

  • I specialize in maternity, newborn, family and motherhood photography. Sessions are available outdoors, in-home, or in studio depending on your vision. In addition, I also photograph couples, small events and large events on an ad hoc basis.

  • I recommend booking your session at least 30-60 days in advance to allow ample time for planning, styling, and securing your ideal date.

  • For maternity, the best time is between 28-34 weeks. For newborns, I recommend booking during pregnancy and scheduling the session within the first 5-14 days after birth.

  • Yes, I travel up to 45 minutes outside my home base at no additional cost. Sessions beyond may be subject a mileage fee. As this time, I do not offer out-of-state or international travel, but I’m happy to recommend trusted photographers in those areas if needed.

  • If you cancel at least 30 days before your session or event date, you’ll receive a full refund. If you cancel within 30 days, a $100 session fee (or $500 for event bookings) will be retained to cover the reserved time and planning already in motion.

  • Life happens - and I completely understand. I’m flexible with rescheduling due to weather and emergencies. You’re welcome to reschedule up to two times for extenuating circumstances. Just let me know as soon as possible so we can find a new date that works for both of us.

  • Yes, absolutely! Pets are family too, and I love when they’re a part of your story. Just let me know ahead of time so we can choose a location that’s pet friendly and plan accordingly.

  • Once you book, I’ll send over a detailed style guide to help you choose outfits that photography beautifully.

  • Locations are chosen collaboratively based on your preferences. I have a list of favorite local spots, or we can photograph at your home or a meaningful location to you.

  • Sessions typically last 45-90 minutes, depending on the type. Newborn and in-home sessions may run a bit longer to allow for feeding and breaks.

  • I provide a sneak peek gallery with 20-40 images within 48 hours of our session. Your fully edited gallery will be delivered via an online link within 4-6 weeks. A full session typically ranges from 100-200 images. From there, you can download high -resolution images, order prints, or share your favorites.

  • Film Photography

    Film photography is a complimentary add-on to digital sessions while I continue refining my craft. Film adds a nostalgic, artistic feel with beautiful tones and texture. If you’d love a few frames captured on film during your session, just let me know when booking - I’d be thrilled to include it.

    Drone Photography

    Drone photography is an add on rate of $150.00 for outdoor sessions where permitted. Drone photography offers a unique and cinematic perspective -perfect for showcasing scenic landscapes and storytelling from above. You can expect to receive a minimum of 5 images if you choose to add this service.
