THANK YOU!

 I will send you a Style Guide with tips and tricks for how to prepare for your session, including what to wear. I know that choosing outfits can be tricky. I love it when clients send me photos of their outfits if they need extra help deciding. 

What do we wear?

I watch the weather forecast closely. We will reschedule if it rains.

What if it rains?

In my experience, beautiful light is what makes a beautiful photo, even more than a beautiful location. We will schedule our session at the time of day when the light is most beautiful, and then you can choose a location from a list of locations I love (although I'm always open to new suggestions.)   A travel fee will be applied if outside of a 25-minute driving time radius from my home.

Do we get to choose the location?

 Please fill out the contact form on my website. I will send you my Scheduler to make scheduling easy-peasy.

How do I schedule a session?

 I will post a sneak peek within a week of your session to Instagram (instagram.com/emilysommerphotography) and to Facebook (Facebook.com/emilysommerphotography)

Will I get a sneak peek?

During my non-busy season (January through April), my typical turn-around time is 2 two weeks. During my busy season (May through December), my typical turn-around time is 4 weeks, although I will rush, rush, rush to get images for Christmas cards.

What is the turn-around time?

 I will address any issues that I believe need attention. I will choose 10 images to fully edit if a lot of re-touching is necessary. Please pick out your 5 favorite images you’d like addressed in addition to the ones I already edited. If you would like additional images re-touched, there is a fee of $10/image.

Do you address issues such as acne and stray hairs?

 Nope! No judgment from me. I am a mom of 4, and I know what it’s like to have kids that aren’t feeling it that day, don’t want to listen and make everything a little more challenging. I get it and have experienced those same things. I’ll do my best to help, but sometimes life is life. This is your family and documenting the crazy might be the best way to capture life right now. 

What if my kids act up and don’t cooperate? Are you going to judge me?

 Please contact me if you need to change your date. I am a human too, so I get that things happen.

What if I need to change my date?

 You will not get every single image from our time because sometimes I can tell the smile isn’t genuine or the background wasn’t working. I choose the best images from our session that represent the formal and candid images. 

Do I get every pose and background from our session?

 I do not give clients raw images from our session. 

Can I have the raw images from the session?

Your fee includes our session and a gallery full of beautiful, edited, high-resolution images. 

What is included in the fee?

I love to see your prints off your computer and on your walls and displayed throughout your home. Your gallery is connected to a store that makes beautiful, archival prints.

Do you offer prints?

While I am an outdoor and in-home lifestyle photographer, there are certain times when a studio is necessary. I have access to a beautiful studio that we can use if your situation calls for it. 

Do you have a studio?
