got questions?
What is the investment?
My senior experiences start at $700. I offer a handful of Collections which can include select products like high-resolution images for download, heirloom portrait albums, and framed prints. Unlimited options and fun Senior products.
How long is the turnaround?
Your full, hand-edited gallery is typically delivered within 2 weeks.
Where exactly in Tahoe do we shoot?
I have my "Signature" spots in Truckee and at the Lake. We’ll choose a location that fits your "Vision." Whether it’s the granite textures of Truckee, the deep blue of the Lake, or a hidden forest trail, we’ll find the perfect Tahoe backdrop or even a Downtown Truckee session.
Can I bring a friend or a pet?
Yes! If your dog is your best friend, bring them. If you want a few shots with your bestie, let’s do it for a few frames. It keeps the energy high and the smiles real.
What happens if the Tahoe weather doesn't cooperate?
Wind and light snow can actually look iconic, but if we’re hit with a true Sierra storm or heavy smoke, we’ll move to my backup dates. I keep a few days clear every month just for reschedules.
When should we book?
Ideally, 3–6 months in advance. Fall dates in Tahoe (September/October) fill up the fastest, followed by July for those classic lake vibes. Now booking for 2026 and 2027.
Can we customize my collection?
Absolutely. While my curated collections cover what most families need, we can always tailor the deliverables to make sure you're getting exactly the "pretty things" you want—whether that's more film frames or a specific size for wall art.
What if I’m not comfortable in front of the camera?
Most people aren't don't worry. I’m here to guide you with intention. I’ll give you enough direction so you never feel "stuck," but enough space so the photos feel like you, not a pose. We keep it natural, candid, and elevated.
Do you offer albums or wall art?
Yes. I believe these images deserve to live somewhere better than a phone screen. I offer custom-designed albums, fine art prints, and museum-quality wall art—all crafted to showcase your story beautifully and last for generations.
Do I need to order prints through you?
It’s not required, but it is highly recommended. My images are calibrated specifically to my pro lab, so albums, prints, and wall art will look exactly as intended—sharp, vibrant, and true to life. Consumer labs often shift colors and lose that "editorial" quality we worked hard to capture.
How do I prepare for my session?
Don't worry—I won’t leave you hanging. Once you’re officially on the calendar, I’ll send over my exclusive Senior Prep Guide. It’s packed with tips on what to wear, how to get ready, and exactly what to bring. Beyond that? A good attitude and a little trust are your best attributes—I’ll handle the rest.
