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!

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.

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.

Wardrobe access is included with every collection and allows the client to use clothing from the Photographer’s collections. The luxury Couture wardrobe includes the use of the photographer’s couture gowns, dresses, and tuxedos for your session. You have access to any clothing, shoes, and accessories the photographer has to offer. The gowns and dresses offered for these sessions range from $600-$2000 per dress.  This allows you to enjoy all the finest accommodations for your session with ease.

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.

Luxury Couture sessions are typically done within 30-40 minutes depending on the age of the child. As we all know, young children do NOT want to be taking photos forever so I work swiftly and efficiently while their interest and attention are at their peak. I want genuine emotions from children and those cant come when we are forcing them to be photographed.

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.

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

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.

*If you decide to include an animal during your luxury couture session please make sure they are calm in nature and won’t be jumping or inclined to damage dresses. Overly rambunctious animals are probably best to be kept at home.
