HOW IT WORKS
“Richelle went out of her way to make sure the location was exactly what I had envisioned."
–Jennifer P.
"She was great with my two under two and knew how to distract them with little tricks and toys and interact with them which made us feel so much better about the shoot since babies are so unpredictable.”
No matter the session type, you can always expect:
I'm a little different, it's true...
Clear, prompt communication each step of the way
Just the right amount of in-session guidance
Clean, classic editing with natural colors
“Hands down, Richelle’s photos are absolutely stunning!
–Allison B.
"They are treasures that I will forever cherish. We had such a great time taking these and it’s been more than a pleasure working with her through the entire process from booking to album delivery.”
Reach out via my contact page and fill out my inquiry form. I'll confirm if your ideal date is available and then send you a set of contracts to sign and an invoice for the session fee. I do not hold dates unless the contract has been signed and the session fee has been paid.
A non-refundable retainer, or session fee, is due at the time of booking to hold your date. Retainers start at $275 for full sessions and vary based on your chosen session type.
Credit card, electronic check (ACH), Venmo, and Zelle. I do not accept cash or physical checks.
Yes, I offer multi-part payment plans.
Approximately 3 to 4 weeks. Within 10 business days of your session, you will get a proofing gallery. You'll have 7 days to look through your photos and select your favorites. Once that's done, you'll get a link to download your photos within 3 to 5 business days.
Absolutely! When it comes to designing your album, I can do all the work for you so you can relax and wait for it to arrive. Prints can be purchased directly through my only gallery store, giving you access to a number of professional print labs.
Of course! If all you want are digitals, that's an option for all my sessions except for Heirloom Portraits. For heirloom portraits, you will get a digital copy of your printed photos as these are meant to be displayed.
