Life is about all the moments that stitch our lives together. From a new family member, to a lovely union, to a senior getting ready to take on their next step; I am here to capture each of these moments.
Tips From Albina
Whether it’s a senior graduation, our a couple renewing their vows, I want to document it all! Read on for FAQs.
When to Book
For us to accommodate the best experience, please reach out a few months before your ideal date. Weekends fill up quickly for me, so the earlier the better!
Note: Occasionally there is availability for last-minute bookings. While I have several annual clients booking family and special occasion sessions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
What to Expect
Everything else!
My services are not limited to these events. I am ready to capture any special occasion in your life. Including but not limited to:
- At home-lifestyle
- First birthday
- Birth/Hospital newborn
- Weddings/Engagement Parties
- Parties of all sorts
- and much more.
How to Prepare
It’s always helpful to do some photography research! Anything on my Facebook page is available to incorporate. Backdrops, props, poses, it’s all here for your use.
What Comes After?
Your photo-viewing appointment will be scheduled a few weeks after your photoshoot. This usually takes an hour and this is the time to select your favorites and package options.
Capturing the image is only half of the experience. While the images may look great on your phone or desktop, there is just no comparison between a digital image and a beautifully-framed wall portrait.
We’ll also explore my recommendation of prints, canvases, wall art and albums.
Let me use my experience and expertise to create classic portraits of family that can be looked back on for generations to come!
Packages & Pricing
Shooting locations can occur anywhere from my studio, or a beautiful and meaningful outdoor location. New England is full of treasured parks, beaches and scenic areas. It’s not uncommon to travel for the picturesque location.
While we don’t ask you to commit to package type before seeing the photos, we kindly ask to pay the sitting fee in full on the day of the photoshoot.
