What Will Our Session Be Like?
Spending an evening hanging out with your family! That’s exactly what a session with Modern Meg Photography is like. You can expect your session to be fun, relaxed, and casual. I’m interested in telling your family’s story. I want to capture your real expressions and real emotions. I DO NOT pose you or your little ones. Please browse my blog to get a feel for the lifestyle images that I like to create.
What’s Included In My Package?
Photographer’s time and talent, style guide, and high resolution digital images. I will deliver all edited images from your session via an online viewing gallery for you to download directly. Once your reservation fee is paid and an online contract is signed you are officially on the books! The remainder of your session fee is due on or before your scheduled session.
Where Do Sessions Take Place?
Location depends on the type of session…Fresh 48 Sessions are held at your place of birth, usually a hospital, birthing center or your home. Newborn Photos always take place in your home. Maternity, Family, and Children’s Sessions can be outdoors at a location of your choice. Once you’ve booked your session we’ll get together to decide on the best location for you. I have lots of suggestions and I’m always up for trying something new! I work in and around the Lubbock area.
When Do Sessions Take Place?
Fresh 48 Sessions are usually done the day after your baby is born, preferably mid morning. Indoor Newborn or Indoor Family Lifestyle Sessions are taken whenever your home has the best light, usually mid morning to early afternoon. Outdoor sessions start about an hour before sunset.
What Do I Wear?
Once you book your session I will send you a Getting Ready Style Guide as well as a What to Expect at Your Session Guide. I am always available to help out with choosing your outfits.
Will You Pose Us?
I do not like to pose my clients, I prefer natural expressions and interactions. I’ll ask you to look at each other and pretend you like each other, but for the most part you’ll pretend I’m not there. We will get at least one image where everyone is smiling and looking at the camera, but that will be on the only time I truly ask you to pose. Please don’t be afraid to move around, talk to each other, and act silly!
How Far In Advance Should A Session Be Booked?
Fresh 48 and Newborn Sessions should be booked as far in advance as possible. Plan on booking Family Sessions at least 4-6 weeks in advance, but I can definitely schedule something on short notice if I have an opening.
When Will I Get My Images?
You will receive an email link to your online images within two weeks of your session. You will also receive a print release and instructions. You will be able to download all of your images at that time.
Do You Have Props?
I do not have props. I am up for using any props that you own and would like to incorporate, but I will not bring any props to your session. Minimal props that you may want to include are a special blanket, accessories, or a special toy.
