How and when should I book my session?
As soon as you decide you are interested-book your session. To schedule a session, send me an email through the Contact page or call us at 561.213.2497. Newborns are best photographed within the first 10 days of life. If you are pregnant, please let me know your due date and I will “Save the Date.” If you already have your newborn, we’ll do our best to fit you in immediately.
What is included in the session pricing?
Your session fee covers Holly’s time and talent, including: a pre-session consultation, your photo shoot, time in the studio editing the “proofs”, an ordering appointment that will include a beautiful slideshow of your images, and a beautiful keepsake book of ALL of your images.
*Prints, digital files, books and more are available for additional purchase.
Where will my session take place?
Sessions may take place in your home, at the studio, or at a location of your choice. Working in a familiar/fun environment allows your child to relax and be his/herself.
How long will the session last?
They typically last from 30 minutes to 2 hours. We understand toddlers may have 30 minutes before their breaking point, while some adorable young ladies will strike a pose all day long. For newborns, usually plan for 2 hours, allowing time for feedings, changing and breaks as needed.
Back To TopWhat should we wear?
Simple clothes and solid colors work best for photographs. Try to focus on the location of the shoot, if we are skipping down the beach think bare feet and comfortable shirt rather than pin-striped pants and and a jacket. This is South Florida! Think fun, bright colors, tu-tus, hats and other fun accessories! Sometimes, even nothing at all! Changes of clothing are welcomed, but please avoid shirts with logos or characters, which can be distracting in photos.
Back To TopWhat if my child is sick and I need to reschedule?
If your child becomes sick - please contact us ASAP and we have no problem rescheduling. For all other cancellations/reschedules, please give at least 48 hours notice.

Back To TopHow do I hang Masonite Mounted Prints?
For typical residential walls with little or no texture, you can use Scotch Removable Foam Mounting Squares (available at Staples). Each package contains four sheets of four squares for a total of sixteen squares. For prints up to 8×10 only one square per corner is necessary, but for prints up to 11×14, you’ll need two squares per corner. These are removable, however every time you move it, the adhesive power is reduced, therefore take care in the initial positing to do it correctly. Repositioning them even three or four times can cause the adhesive to be weakened to the point that the prints may fall.
