hi loves! some important updates so please read:

for the past 14 years, it has been an absolute privilege to photograph your families & preserve so many meaningful moments. many of you have trusted me from your maternity sessions through your 8th grader’s graduation while also becoming good friends along the way.

as my business has grown, so has the demand for sessions. while I’m beyond incredibly grateful, I’ve reached a point where I’m booking more sessions than I can manage, often traveling to multiple locations (in multiple suburbs) all day, everyday.

to continue providing the level of care, creativity, and personal attention that you deserve, while also trying to give some time and dedication to our three teen girls before we are empty nesters, I need to make some small changes.

{are you thinking this is so weird, she hasn’t made a joke about double chins, spray tans, botox or mocked her teens/spouse yet, we good boo?}

what i’m trying to soften the blow of is this…my session rates will be increasing for all clients. this decision wasn’t made lightly as I have always tried to keep my pricing affordable and celebrate loyalty, but this will allow me to take on a more manageable number of sessions, spend more time creating a great experience for each family & continue delivering the quality you’ve come to expect over the past 14 years.

anything currently on the books for the rest of the year will be billed at the former pricing structure. i will still offer a friends, family & previous client loyalty discount from the new pricing. existing package rates will remain the same.

🍂 discounted fall mini sessions will be announced august 3rd via newsletter but I will be streamlining locations. please reach out asap if you’d like to book a fall session outside of these discounted sessions. 🍂

{I will hopefully now have more time to digitally tan & botox you all…see, I was able to work this in}

i remain grateful for your continued support, referrals, and trust over the years.

this small, family business exists because of wonderful families like yours, and i cant wait to create many more memories together.

in photoshop we forever trust,
michele
