Your remaining investment is due the day of your session by check or card with a small credit card processing fee.

I will travel up to 60-75 minutes away for newborn sessions. Anything 15 miles outside of the 46033 zip code is subject to $0.62/mile.

I will deliver approximately 75-100+ images, although this depends on how long and the type your session is.

My turnaround time is typically 3-5 weeks for your entire gallery depending on the season. I like to send out a preview before that time.
