Otherwise, please arrange childcare in advance as well as a backup option in case the original arrangement falls through. The session will need to be rescheduled if you cannot find childcare for unattended children. The session can be rescheduled once the $250 rescheduling fee is paid in full. This fee is to compensate my team for dedicating their time for your appointment and for the lost opportunity to book other clients. ​ Find a buddy to be your escort if desired Escorts are always welcome in our studio! It is industry standard for models and clients to bring an escort along for their safety and comfort. We are an all-female team and are LGBTQ+ friendly, but I still recommend bringing an escort as they help boost confidence and make the session even more fun. ​ ​Think about the look and mood you want There are many different themes, moods, looks, etc. that you can go for. Look up examples here on Artifex Imaging or elsewhere online. Save anything you like to your Pinterest, straight to your phone, etc. Be sure to forward the images or links to me so I can tailor your session for you. ​ Discuss y our hair and makeup needs with my team I will connect you with my team so that you can send images and discuss your overall look, specific requests, etc . if you booked a premium session. ​ Ask questions as they come u p Please ask questions as they think of them and I will answer as soon as I am able. No need to wait until business hours are open so you don't forget your question. This will help you be feel more comfortable and prepared for your session. ​ Try on different outfits at home and in stores Be sure to try on outfits to make sure they fit the way you want and they suit the look you are going for. You do not have to send outfit photos, but you are welcome to if you'd like our opinions. ​ Pick out items that will lend a personal flair There are many different items that represents parts of ourselves. Incorporating these items into your session will make the results more personal fo r you. Examples can be items from hobbies or activities that you and your loved ones enjoy or just adorable props that you'd love to use in your photos. ​ ​ The Day Prior ​ Pack anything you think you might want.

Session time begins as scheduled or upon early arrival and will not be extended due to late arrivals. You will be allowed one reschedule after paying a $250 reschedule fee if you do not arrive or will forfeit your session without refund if you do not reschedule or appear for your reschedule. This is to compensate my team for dedicating their time for your appointment and for the lost opportunity to book other clients. ​ Let loose and have fun!
