"CARA BLEW US AWAY WITH OUR FAMILY PHOTO SHOOT. SHE IS SO TALENTED! SHE DID SUCH A GOOD JOB DURING THE SESSION ITSELF WITH KEEPING OUR KIDS GOING WITH WHAT THEY NEEDED TO DO. SHE ROLLED WITH THE PUNCHES AND GUIDED THE WHOLE THING SO WELL. OUR PHOTOS ARE BREATHTAKING AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO USE HER FOR FUTURE SESSIONS."

AN IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT SCHEDULING
NEWBORN SESSIONS:
I book newborn sessions on Tuesday and Thursdays from around 11am based off mom's due date. Newborn sessions are best within the first 2 weeks of life.
Based off your due date we'll pick a date for your session on my calendar. Please book 8-10 days after your due date. While we will schedule your session date right away, there is always flexibility to reschedule if baby's arrival is early or late. Please email to confirm your due date with me before booking and I will confirm your session date.
MATERNITY SESSIONS:
I would love to save you a spot for your maternity session! Maternity sessions are suggested between 27-32 weeks and not past 35 weeks. Please email to confirm your due date and I will confirm your session date.
BUNDLE BOOKING:
To book maternity and newborn sessions together please use the scheduler to book your maternity session date and then email me your newborn due date. I will send you the proposal to complete the booking process for both sessions and will confirm a date for your newborn session. You will receive $50 off after booking when you bundle!

FAQ:
Still have questions...
WHERE ARE YOU BASED?
I live in outside of the Lehigh Valley in New Ringgold, PA.
DO YOU HAVE A STUDIO?
No but we can find a local studio to rent.
WHAT'S YOUR STYLE?
My focus is heavily lifestyle based. My goal is always to focus on raw emotion and to tell the story of YOUR life! Because of this, my sessions contain both posed and candid shots.
WHEN DO YOU SCHEDULE SESSIONS?
Outdoor sessions are scheduled 1-2 hours before the sunsets when the sun is low, soft and luminous. In-home and studio sessions are scheduled for late mornings around 10-11am when lighting is best indoors. Because I am a wedding photographer, I try my best to schedule studio and portrait sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays to save weekends for wedding work.
WHAT LOCATIONS DO YOU USE?
I suggest locations based on the style session you’re trying to achieve. Are you interested in studio, grassy field, lake view, city or woods? Once thats decided I have several spots to recommend.
DO YOU CHARGE A TRAVEL FEE?
Yes, I am based in New Ringgold, PA. Any travel further than a total of 50 miles is subject to $1.00 / per mile.
CAN I PRINT IMAGES MYSELF?
Yes. All my sessions include edited / retouched images + print release via digital download. You also have the ability to order professional prints directly from your online gallery.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
Follow me on Pinterest to get inspired for your sessions! I love long flowing dresses and skirts because they add beautiful movement and elegance to your sessions. For men I suggest neutral colors (white, grey, taupe, beige, ivory, white or black). You also cannot go wrong with a chambray/denim button up with khaki or sage pants or black jeans. These colors match well with just about anything. Here are some stores I love:
Women: Lulu's, Bohme, Ruelle, Free People, Altar'd State
Children: Shop James, Joyfolie, Bailey's Blossoms, Zara, Rylee and Cru, Fin and Vince
Men: Nordstrom Rack, Tilly's, H&M, Buckle, Banana Republic
SHOULD I GET MY HAIR AND MAKEUP DONE PROFESSIONALLY?
Yessss! I highly recommend professional hair and makeup.
WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE IS BAD WEATHER?
Cloudy weather is not a problem. However, if it rains, snows, hails, etc. I will contact you as soon as possible to postpone or reschedule.
WHEN WILL MY PHOTOS BE READY?
Your entire gallery will be completed within 3-4 weeks.
HOW DO I SELECT MY IMAGES?
If you choose a newborn session with select images you will receive a proof gallery of all the best unedited images to choose which images you'll keep. Then your photos will be edited and delivered to match my style.
I WANT TO WORK WITH YOU! HOW DO I BOOK?
Pick a date on my calendar and then complete the booking proposal sent over via email. You'll choose your collection, sign your contract and put down 50% retainer fee to save your date on my calendar. I cannot wait to get started!
