FAMILY
Let's Explore
My NW Indiana sessions are all about warmth, connection, and having fun! While you're hanging out, being you, with your loved ones, I'll be there working my magic behind the lens, crafting photos that feel as easy and natural as a summer breeze. Whether it's a little adventure outdoors in Northwest Indiana / Chicagoland, or in the comfort of your home, I'm excited to document memories that will last a lifetime!

FAQS
HOW DO YOU TAKE PAYMENT?
I collect initial down payments for booking through my secure online system and accept all major credit cards. The balance is then due on the session day.
HOW DO I BOOK?
Click one of the booking links on this page or the contact tab. We'll discuss dates, your people, and location. Then pay your down payment invoice & receive a contract to sign to make it official! Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
WHAT IF I NEED TO CANCEL?
Life happens! If something comes up and you need to reschedule, just let me know as soon as possible. While the partial payment retainer is non-refundable, it'll happily roll it over to your new session date - so you won't lose a thing!
WHAT IF THE WEATHER IS BAD?
While I can't control the weather (wishing I could!), we can always reschedule if it's pouring rain or there's extreme cold. On the other hand, cloudy skies, gentle breezes, and mild temperatures are all good to go at my discrection.
