Are you wondering what a session with Gayle is like? Or would you like more information about what you’ll most likely invest for a session with Gayle? Then read on!

WHAT IS A SESSION LIKE?

Before a family or child portrait session, we will talk and figure out what type of session you’d like and what will best represent your style.  Sessions are comfortable and relaxed.  We might spend a few minutes chatting and getting to know each other.  If you are wanting family shots, then we will probably start with those.  I’ll give you some suggestions and ask you to be yourself and pretend that I am not there (as much as possible!)  We might do something silly and we might not.  I will NOT ask you to say “cheese” or any other silly words.  We will definitely talk and begin to feel comfortable around one another.   I always hope to capture a variety of posed and candid shots.  My favorite images tend to be the more non-traditional shots that capture a moment or show personality.  These will probably be your most treasured images as well.
If you are hiring me to shoot your wedding, we will meet early on to communicate about the flow of your day, what you have planned, and your vision for your photographs.  Hopefully, we will plan a time to take some engagement shots.  Not only are engagement photos great for announcements and to display at your reception, but they are also a great way for us to get to know one another–an important aspect to  wonderful images on your wedding day.
