Quick Takes
 
Hey there! I am so happy you're here!
 
Quick Takes are my version of a mini session. Short, sweet, but impactful. Each session lasts about 20–25 minutes and includes a curated set of beautifully edited images. They're a simple way to capture this season of life, whether you're updating family photos, celebrating a milestone, documenting your senior year, or just looking for fresh portraits.
If you’re envisioning something more custom, longer, or want the full experience with multiple looks and locations, head over to the Booking Page to explore full sessions and start planning your personalized experience.
 
Every Quick Take Includes:
- 20-minute portrait session
- 10 edited digital images
- Up to 5 people
- Private proofing gallery
- Print release included
- Save $100 when you pre-purchase your gallery upgrade during booking

FAQ
 
How do I book a Quick Take?
Once you choose an appointment time, it’s held in your cart for 15 minutes while you complete checkout.
Do I need to pay in full to book?
No. A small retainer reserves your spot. The remaining balance is due the week of your session.
Can I change my appointment after selecting a time?
Yes. Use Change or Cancel beneath the booking form. Avoid your browser’s back button after selecting a time—it can clear your hold.
Are waitlists available?
Yes—every Quick Take has a waitlist once it’s full.
What’s your weather plan?
I photograph outdoors in natural light. Each event lists a rain date in the booking details. If conditions look unsafe or unworkable (rain, high winds, extreme temps, etc.), I’ll make the call about 3 hours before your session and reschedule to the posted rain date (or the next available option if needed).
Can I include family or friends in my Quick Take?
Absolutely! Quick Takes are great for families, but they’re also a fun option for seniors who want to include a parent, sibling, or close friend for a few photos. Each session includes up to five people, and you can add up to two additional participants for $25 each (maximum of seven total).
Quick Takes are not ideal for extended family groups. If multiple families would like portraits together, each should book their own Quick Take or consider a full session for more time and flexibility.
Are pets allowed?
Some locations are pet-friendly and some aren’t. I note pet rules on each event. If pets are allowed, please bring a leash, waste bags, and, if possible, an extra handler so we can get a few great shots quickly and keep the session moving.
