What is Tiffany’s photographic style?
Tiffany style is fresh, playful, fun and whimsical. Tiffany strives to show the connections between children and their families in a relaxed way and works hard to connect with the children she photographs to really bring out their little personalities and let them shine in their portraits.
When should I schedule my session?
In order to provide the best experience for each and every client, Tiffany limits the number of sessions available on a monthly basis. It is recommended to schedule your session three to four weeks in advance and two to three months in advance for the popular fall season. If you are an expectant mother, although Tiffany tries to leave times open for newborns, it is best to contact her before your baby is born to guarantee that a session will be available.
What is the Portrait Consultation?
The best way to make each session personal and unique to you is to plan every detail of it. During the portrait consultation Tiffany will help determine the best location and time of day for you session, then get in to the details, such as clothes, the style and vision, and determine the needs of the session to assure the final portraits are exactly what you want.
What is the best time of day for our session?
Ideally, Tiffany prefers to schedule outdoor sessions 1 – 2 hours before sunset because the light is soft and beautiful. But, she understands that bed times and nap schedules don’t always work around the sun so during the consultation the best times will be discussed and determined. For indoor sessions, Tiffany usually schedules sessions for 11 am or 1 pm.
What should we wear for our session?
Clothing is such an important part of planning for your portrait session. Clothing will be discussed during the portrait consultation and Tiffany will send you a detailed guide to help make your clothing selection a little more fun. Tiffany will gladly help you style your session if you need additional assistance.
What is a session like?
Sessions are always fun! Forget those stressful portrait sittings of the past! Tiffany likes to make sure everyone stays relaxed during the session to keep everyone in good spirits. You’ll often see her rolling around on the ground, making funny faces and sounds, telling jokes, running around playing peek-a-boo, and being an all around goof ball! Tiffany will do everything she can to make sure your session is fun, but that means you’ve got to be prepared to have fun and be silly too … yes, even the dads!
What happens after the session?
Approximately 2 weeks after your session, you’ll come in to the studio for a personal design and ordering appointment where Tiffany will show you your gorgeous images as a slideshow set to music. This appointment is customized for you. Tiffany knows it’s a difficult process to choose your final portraits so she will take the time and care that is needed to help you select what is best for your needs. Your order is to be placed during this time, so please be certain that all decision-makers are present.
Typically, clients plan to invest at least $850. The average investment ranges from $1,800 to $3,700, a budget that allows you to furnish your home with beautiful portraits that your family will cherish forever – stunning wall portraits, custom albums, gift portraits and your custom musical slideshow.
