Why do I love to photograph children?

Every family is unique, and so is every child. Capturing the precious moments through photography is a wonderful way to remember these fleeting stages of childhood while they are young. I was inspired to photograph children because of my nephew Gavin and my nieces Jolie and Rosalie. My first love is photographing children and I have the patience to work with young clients. I always try to capture a genuine reaction that doesn’t feel forced so you get a natural expression with a landscape that compliments their beautiful smiles. Let's create some magical memories for you and your child!

Collection balance must be paid in full before any images are taken on the date of your session.

Why does Alicia Marie Photography put it's focus on quality versus quantity?

For me, the way I prefer to be creative is by providing families with images they will be able to see every day. My goal is to not give you fifty edited images that are only slightly different and look almost the same. I encourage you to focus on why you wanted professional photos taken in the first place. More often than not, everybody wants those few stunning images to display and treasure. I don’t want your money to be put towards thirty or more images that sit on your computer and you never acknowledge or see. Let’s focus more creatively and purposefully on a few photos rather than an overwhelming gallery. Let me create for you!

Will I receive a preview of my images online?

Yes! Your first preview is typically posted within twenty-four hours from the time your session ends! I know how eager you and your family are to see a preview after all the time, investing, and planning you put into making this possible. I appreciate it so much so I always make sure to have a preview up for you right away. Keep in mind that every single image from your session is hand-edited and finely retouched to create a showstopping photograph.

Why are digitals not included?

Alicia Marie Photography doesn’t include digital images for many different reasons. For me personally, handing my clients a USB or link to their images that I have poured my heart and soul into is as far from personable as I can get. That is simply not the experience I want you to have. The emotion and feelings that happen when each family receives a gorgeous, luxurious, tangible portrait of their family, child, or pet is what makes everything worth it for me.  Photographs that you are investing in are not meant to sit in a folder on your computer. You invested in your images, let’s make it worth your while and present you with timeless art for your home and family to enjoy for many years to come.

What is Wardrobe Access?

Wardrobe access is included with every collection and allows the client to use clothing from the Photographer’s collections. Classic wardrobe includes everything except luxury couture dresses. You have access to any clothing, shoes, and accessories the photographer has to offer. Most of the outfits range from $200-$800 each, so you are able to enjoy all the finest accommodations for your session.

Can multiple locations be used for my session?

Alicia prefers to utilize one location for every session. Driving and transitioning clients from location to location interrupts the flow of a session, especially with young children. To keep a client’s session running as smoothly as possible, we will make the most out of one location for your images.

How long is a typical session?

Children’s sessions are typically done within 30 minutes. As we all know, young children do NOT want to be taking photos forever.  I work swiftly and efficiently while their interest and attention are at their peak. I want genuine emotions from children and those aren’t possible when we are forcing them to be photographed.

What is an online ordering gallery?

An online ordering gallery is where the client will be able to preview their images and order loose prints from their session a la carte style. Every client will get their own login password which can be given to friends and family if they would like to order their own prints from your session.

What happens if weather is an issue on the day of my session?

If anything weather-related happens on your original date we will move your session to the earliest convenience.

Are pets welcome at my child's session?

Absolutely! Pet’s are important members of every family and are more than welcome to accompany you to your child’s session. Please keep in mind heat and humidity when including your pets in your sessions. As we all know extreme heat can be dangerous for animals. Please make sure you have a leash for your animals as most public locations require animals to remain on a leash.

The bronze collection is catered to those who aren’t looking for a large gallery of photos.

In this collection, you will receive two final images which will both be printed for you. The images you will receive will be printed on the highest quality paper and mounted on sturdy backing to preserve the image. They can be set on a flat surface and leaned against a wall or they are ready to be placed into a frame for easy hanging. After your session, you can select which images you would like to be printed and you will not only leave with updated photos but treasured, tangible images for your home or gifts.

The silver collection is the right option for you if you are looking for a little bit more of a selection than you would receive in the Bronze collection.

This is an ideal option if you have more than one child and would like a couple more options for each of them as well as some grouping shots. In addition to the higher selection of photos, you will make a statement with a luxury-sized statement portrait on your wall! The deluxe-sized wall canvas will not disappoint and will leave you and your guests in awe!

The gold portrait collection is here for the ones who want the entire experience from start to finish. The Gold collection offers the largest number of images available.

No two images will be exactly the same and that is so important to me as not only a creative, but also as somebody who wants to give you the best. Each image that comes out of my camera is treated as its own work of art and nothing less. Along with those eight images come two luxury-sized wall portraits that will be unlike anything you have ever seen before. You will be able to proudly display something in your home that is unique, and fully customizable to fit your personality and your decor style.
