FAQ

How far in advance should I book?

Weddings and elopements are typically booked 6-12 months in advance. Portrait sessions can be booked 1-3 months ahead. If you have a last-minute date, still reach out! I may have availability!

What is your turn around time?

You'll recieve your full edited gallery with 2-3 weeks for most sessions, and up to 4-6 weeks for weddings. I always aim for quality and speed!

Do you help with posing?

Absolutely! I'll gently guide you throughout the session so it feels natural, not stiff. My style is all about real connection, not forced smiles.

Do you offer albums and prints?

At the moment, I offer high-resolution digital photos only. I'm working on offering professional prints and custom albums in the future so your memories can live beautifully beyond the screen. Stay tuned- exciting things are coming!

What happens if the weather is bad?

We'll keep an eye on the forecast. For portrait sessions, I offer flexible rescheduling. For weddings and elopements, I'll roll with whatever the sky gives us- and often, those moody skies create the most magical moments!

Can I book a session with a studio rental?

Absolutely! If you'd rather not shoot outdoors- whether it's for a newborn session, branding portraits, or just to avoid whether worries- I offer the option to book a beautiful, natural-light studio. These spaces give us the same warm, soft feel you see in my work, just in a controlled environment.


Studio rental fees are separate from your session and typically range from $50-$100 per hour. I'll guide you through the best studio options and handle the booking so everything is seamless on your end.

"We felt like professional models"


"We recently did our engagement session with Vanessa. The pictures are GORGEOUS!! She made sure that we felt comfortable and ended up with beautiful pictures. Even though neither my fiance nor I had ever had professional pictures taken, she was so good that we felt like professional models. We had sneak peeks within a week and the full album by 2 and a half weeks. So fast!!"

"Highly recommend her 1,000%"


"Vanessa is absolutely incredible!! She’s beyond amazing, super talented. My husband and I had less than a month to plan our wedding and we were on a budget. Vanessa met with us and worked around our budget without hesitation. Highly recommend her 1,000%"
