What is the process for having photos done?

Do you suggest studio or outdoors for photo sessions?

The location depends on the ages of your children and the style you prefer. For children under one year old, or families seeking a classic or formal look, we recommend our studio. Our studio features beautiful lighting that helps us capture stunning images.

If you prefer a more relaxed, lifestyle feel, outdoor sessions are a great choice. The outdoors offers a natural setting, and many examples can be found in our gallery.

When are beach sessions scheduled?

Beach sessions take place approximately one hour before sunset to make the most of the soft, golden light that creates a warm and flattering atmosphere.
