What do you charge for your session fee?

How long does a session usually take?
A session can last anywhere from 1-2 hours, depending mainly on the kids! If they are happy we will take pictures for as long as possible, but if we have a not so happy kiddo, it may be quicker. Please note, if the session is in your home I will need extra time for set-up and tear-down of my equipment. If we are having the session at an outdoor location, we may need extra time to walk around and find several “locations” for pictures. Newborn sessions typically take a little longer. We work around their schedule!
