Why have your portraits taken as a family?
As all parents know, time goes by so fast! Your babies don’t stay babies for long.
While I do not have a way to slow time down, I do have a way to capture some of those moments forever for you and your family.
Family portraits are not just pictures on your wall or your computer. They are mementos for you and your children. Images that when you look at them, they take you back to that moment.
Portraits are more than just a physical representation of you all standing together and smiling at the camera. Of course we all want a good group photo. But a true portrait session will capture more than that. It will capture not just who you are as a family, but how you are as a family.
How To Book
I always like to speak to my clients before they book full custom sessions because these sessions require some planning.
Make sure to book a call with me so we can make sure your custom session covers everything you need.
Once you have chosen that date and time of our session you will receive a link to sign your contract and pay your sitting free/retainer of $200. Once you have completed both of these your session is scheduled.
On the day of your session you simply bring yourself and your wonderful family and enjoy our time together.
Sessions are 60 minutes and include one location. If you wish to add on more time or more locations please let me know so that we can work something out in advance.
Full sessions are great for adding grandparents, pets, and perfect for a lifestyle newborn session. We will have time to incorporate different ideas into your session.
You will receive an online gallery with all of your images and have the opportunity to purchase both digital images, prints and wall art.
Packages start at $699. If you would like to see the full pricing sheet please send me an email at: aovena@amandaovena.com
FAQ
Is the sitting fee refundable?
The sitting fee is fully refundable with 72 hours notice and transferable when notice is given via phone 24 hours in advance.
Of course we all know that sometimes kids get sick and suddenly throw up the morning of a big event. However, we also know that businesses need to stay in business. So if you miss your session or do not call to discuss options, you will lose your sitting fee.
What will we do if it rains?
I watch the weather report closely for all of my sessions that are outdoors. So you will receive communication from me if it looks like it may rain.
If it rains just a sprinkle we will probably continue with our plans even if it is an outdoor shoot. After all, this is the PNW and it rains here a lot!
If you are comfortable having the session in your home that can also be an option.
However, if there is a torrential downpour, thunder or lightening, or lots of snow and you scheduled an outdoor session, we will reschedule at no charge.
If our session is indoors we will only reschedule for weather in the case where it is unsafe to drive, like lots of snow, or flooding.
