Hi! I'm Jane and will be your photographer. I like to keep the sessions fast-paced and fun to keep kids engaged. I like a mix of posed and candids that focus on connections with and between my subjects. I look forward to meeting you!
FAQs
What is included? The session fee includes a 25-minute photo shoot and an online gallery. Digital file packages are purchased separately after you see the proofs – 5 files for $395, 15 for $550, or all for $695.
When is the best light? The best light happens during the last couple time slots of the day. However, Elizabeth Park offers many shady pockets that have great light for shooting any time of day.
Where will the shoot be held? The shoot will be at Elizabeth Park located at 1561 Asylum Ave, Hartford, CT. We will meet at the Rose Garden Gazebo.
When are the sessions? We will be shooting Custom Sessions all summer at Elizabeth Park but these Simple Sessions coincide with Rose Week, when the roses are at their peak. They are offered Monday through Thursday, June 21st – 24th between 9-11am and 3-8pm.
What if it rains? We want great photos just as much as you do so if the weather is rainy, we’ll postpone and reschedule the session.
Do you retouch the photos? Simple Session digital files are exposure- and color-corrected and lightly edited but full retouching like stray hairs, skin perfection, weight, wrinkles, etc. is not available. Please email us about a Custom Session if you'd prefer your images retouched. You can learn more about the differences between Simple Sessions and Custom Sessions here.
Can I order prints from you too? We only sell digital files for Simple Sessions but they are printable up to 8x10. We do have an online consumer lab we can recommend to you for printing. If you'd like the option to order prints, wall art, albums and other physical products (all retouched) from us, we offer one-hour Custom Sessions for a $195 session fee with all products purchased a la carte. Please email us for a full price list or to schedule.
What if I want a different day or I'd like a longer photo shoot? Please email us to schedule on a different day or for information on our one hour Custom Sessions.
