I book one hour portrait sessions and often allow it to extend up to two hours, especially if we are working with kids, pets and other special situations. I find that, unless a person has some modeling experience (or these days, an extensive instagram account,) 20 minutes is not enough time to allow people to fully relax for the camera and I want my customer to have a variety of pictures to treasure.
These longer sessions allow plenty of time for kids who don't want to cooperate. I encourage Mom and Dad to relax and allow their kids to come smile for me on their time. They have freedom to play and I continue to capture those candid moments. Longer sessions allow for time for babies to be fed. Time to interact and be goofy. Time to change outfits or add props for fun. Time to make memories without feeling rushed.
And, I keep my pricing as simple as possible. No surprises. All sessions include copyright released images for you to print and post online as you wish.
