QUESTIONS

NPS Photography’s style is best described as real life and most importantly YOU.

Every family is unique, and my job is to capture you and your personalities.

So, you can look back on the pictures and feel the way you did during this stage of your life.

What style is your photography?

Most of the houses I photograph in aren’t professionally decorated and it doesn’t make a bit of difference. I promise.

The focus is YOU, not your home.

I've even photographed families in homes with moving boxes everywhere!

What if my house isn't professionally decorated?

If you have windows and a front door, you have light!

It's my job to find the light.

When I arrive at your home, you'll give me a quick tour - I'm looking for the light, not your decor.

Light will dictate where we do your session in your home!

What if my house is really dark?

I do! And there are so many reasons why an in-home session is BEST!

It's where you and your family are most comfortable. You have everything you need for a perfect session - snacks, extra clothes, etc.

And you don't have to go anywhere! 

I can take pictures on a porch or yard if the light cooperates.

Do you only photograph in clients' homes?

frequently asked questions

Collections are a wonderful combination of digitals with a product credit.

I know you want digital images to share on social media and with family and friends, but the magic is having tangible products from your session to enjoy for years to come.

You don't have to use your product credit, but it's baked into my collections and a discount is not available.

Is it possible to only get the digitals?

I'll be honest, they might. They are kids and kids have meltdowns and don't listen and sometimes misbehave, but it's NO BIG DEAL!

I'm a mom of three and a former elementary school teacher, so leave handling the kids up to me! I have lots of tricks and games to keep things fun and your job? To laugh and smile and love on your kids throughout the session. Just let your kids be kids!

A word of advice – skip the bribes. I know it seems like a good idea, but it usually fails.  

What if my kids misbehave?

YES!

  • get up EARLY and take your time getting ready (yes, mom, I'm talking to you!)
  • turn electronics off at least 30 minutes before the session
  • turn on some of your favorite music
  • turn off all the lights and open the blinds
