Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely! Travel fees are waived for clients in North Idaho and Eastern Washington (or within a 1-hour radius of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, however, I'm more than happy to accommodate your session anywhere in the United States!

I closely monitor the weather leading up to your session to ensure we have the best possible conditions for beautiful light and a relaxed experience. If it looks like the weather won’t cooperate, you fall ill, or an emergency comes up, we’ll simply move your session to another day that works for both of us. Please note that session dates are reserved exclusively for you and can only be moved in extenuating circumstances. Outside of those cases, a new session fee is required to secure a new date and time.
Every session is completely custom, so your total investment will depend on what we create together.

I believe every image deserves to be seen and enjoyed in print - whether framed on your wall or preserved in a beautiful album, your images deserve more than being forgotten or lost on an old dusty thumb drive. Too often, digital files end up tucked away on devices, rarely to be seen again, however, I also understand the convenience of having digital copies which is why every printed product comes with a matching digital file. My clients find there to be significantly more value in choosing an artwork collection so that your memories can live both in your hands and at your fingertips!
Each digital file includes a limited personal print release up to 11x14 in size. Larger pieces are considered statement artwork, and I believe they should be printed exactly as envisioned - on professional materials with accurate color and a quality guarantee. Because consumer print labs (available to the public) are not calibrated to professional standards, I cannot guarantee their results and have seen far too many issues with the quality they produce. To preserve the integrity of your images, all large prints are produced through my private vendor labs, where every piece is calibrated individually, crafted with care and precision and come with a color and quality satisfaction guarantee.
Sessions often book several weeks to a few months in advance, especially during busy seasons. I recommend reaching out as soon as possible to secure your preferred date.
