Family Photography FAQ
Thinking about family photos and you're stressed out? You're not alone! Family photos, especially with toddlers, can be a stressful idea. I am here to, hopefully, ease you just a bit.
I do family photos in the studio located in the heart of the West Bottoms in downtown Kansas City. Or outdoors within Kansas City, city limits. There are so many gorgeous places in Kansas City to explore and I am always open to clients suggesting locations!
So, lets get started. Look below for some Q&A's that will answer some of your questions before your session.

How to schedule in studio or outdoor photography?
I have a easy online booking system, just go to the schedule tab. Don't see a time and date that works? Contact me and maybe we can find something that works! Want to see all the mini sessions in one spot, check them out HERE.
When is the best time for family photos?
Outdoor sessions are booked within two hours of sunset. Preferably the last hour of sunset to get that golden hour glow. In the studio my scheduled times reflect the best light too. I understand naps and bedtimes with littles. So, let's chat about that!
Outdoor photos are too late for my baby/toddler in the summer, what should I do?
There are a couple things that help. One being, put your baby/toddler down for a later nap to accommodate the later session time. Did that sound miserable? I understand! Other options would be to book an in studio photo session that works around your child's sleeping schedule. Last thing would be to wait until the sun sets earlier in the Fall or Spring.
Do you provide outfits for the family?
Not at this time, but I would love to one day have a fully stocked family closet for people to choose from.
What do we wear?
I always encourage lighter colors vs dark for spring/summer. Then darker for Fall/Winter. Black and darker colors are completely fine, though. Just stick to more mute colors than neon/bright colors. A healthy mix of patterns and textures with solids. Not too many patterns/textures and not too many solids, etc. Check the link below or check out my social media for past sessions for inspiration.

Can we do the session on my personal property?
Yes, when you book the full hour session! But please contact me about the date and time because more times than not I have multiple sessions on one day at a certain location.
What are some cities you photograph in?
Overland Park, Leawood, Shawnee, Mission, Roeland Park, Prairie Village, Stilwell, Louisburg, Raymore, Lee's Summit, Greenwood, Blue Springs, Olathe, Lenexa, KCMO, Harrisonville, Peculiar, Longview, Crossroads. Just to name a few.
How long does it take to get our photos back?
It takes anywhere from 7-14 days to receive your online gallery with edited images. Up to 3 weeks during Fall.
