Questions
Before you reach out
For weddings and elopements, 6–12 months out is ideal — peak season (June–September) books up fastest. Portrait sessions can usually be scheduled within a few weeks.
Yes — a 30% non-refundable deposit and a signed contract secure your date. The remaining balance is due two weeks before the session.
