FAQs

What is your cancellation policy?

Mini‑session retainers are non‑refundable. Please make sure you are available at the date and time you choose. If you cannot make your session and cancel with at least 24 hours notice, you will receive a credit of the retainer toward a future session. The credit expires one year from your original session date.

What if it rains?

We watch the forecast and will email you options if rescheduling is needed. Overcast is great for photos, steady rain is a no. We are holding a rain date on Sunday, November 1st.

Can we bring grandparents or extended family?

Mini sessions are designed for immediate family, up to 6 people. For extended family sessions, please reach out to schedule a weekday full session.

Can we bring our dog?

Yes. We love dogs! Well‑behaved pups on leash are welcome at both parks. Let us know in advance so we can plan a few dog‑friendly shots.

What should we wear?

Keep it simple and comfortable. Think coordinating colors, textures, and layers that make sense for fall. Avoid heavy logos or busy patterns.
