Frequently asked questions
How soon should I book?
The sooner the better! To give my clients the best experience, I only offer 2 family session dates a month and those book up quickly—especially during busy seasons like spring and fall. Booking early not only guarantees your spot but also allows you to maximize our payment plan option.
How Do I Book?
Booking your session is simple! To secure your date, we require a signed contract and a retainer of $250. Once that’s taken care of, you can break the remaining balance into 1 or 2 payments. This flexibility allows you to tailor your investment in capturing your family’s precious moments.
What happens if the weather is poor for my session?
If the weather is poor on the day of your session, don’t worry! When scheduling your session, we’ll also set a backup date on the calendar. This ensures we have a plan in place to capture your beautiful moments without any stress.
I'm worried about my kids cooperating for photos?
Can we bring our pet?
I don't know what we should wear. Can you help?
It’s completely normal to feel concerned about how your older children will behave during the photo session. As a mom of two myself, I understand the challenges and joys that come with capturing family moments! My approach is all about making the experience fun and relaxed, ensuring your kids feel comfortable and engaged.
Upon booking, you'll receive access to our family session guide which includes the best tips and tricks for selecting outfits for your family. I'll even tell you what stores work well for each member of your family. I'm always happy to hop on a quick Zoom to review outfit options with you as well!
Absolutely! We love capturing the whole family, including your furry friends. Just let us know in advance, and we can discuss the best way to incorporate them into the shoot. If your pet has specific needs or behaviors, sharing that information will help us create a smooth and fun experience for all!
INVESTMENT
Family sessions begin at $650. We'd begin by scheduling a consultation call to ensure we're a good fit!

“Tierney made us feel at ease.”
We hired Tierney for a newborn family session after seeing the beautiful work she did for a friends wedding. No surprise the photos she took for us were beyond amazing. She was a delight to work with and very professional. She made us feel at ease while our son was crying during the photo session. Her bright colors and natural poses were exactly what we were looking for. Thank you so much Tierney for photos we will forever treasure.
