Things I’ll Never Charge You For (Because C’mon, That’s Just Silly)

Let’s talk about hidden fees. You know the ones: surprise charges that sneak up on you like a toddler with a Sharpie.

Well, let me put your mind at ease. When you book a session with me—whether it’s to celebrate that sweet baby bump, your brand-new squish, or wrangle your giggly, barefoot kiddos in the mountains—I promise you won’t see extra charges for the following:

1. The Client Closet

You know that Pinterest-worthy flowy dress you saw on my Instagram? Yeah, you don’t need to buy it. I’ve got a curated client closet full of flattering, boho, photo-friendly pieces just waiting for you. Soft fabrics, forgiving fits, dreamy textures—it's all there, ready for you to slip into like a goddess. You can see all of the gorgeous outfits in my client closet here.

2. Location Fees

We live in one of the most magical places on Earth. Asheville and Black Mountain have gorgeous mountains, meadows, hidden creeks, and tall golden grass that practically begs to be frolicked in. I’ve spent years scouting the best spots with the best light—and no, I will not charge you for taking you there.

The world is our backdrop. Let’s go chase that sunset together, no extra fee required.

There are also several incredible shooting locations that I LOVE to use: The Biltmore and the NC Arboretum. I have passes to these locations so you never have to worry about an additional fee to take advantage of their beauty.

3. Studio Fees

If you’re coming to my cozy studio for a newborn session, there’s no “studio rental” fee waiting at the bottom of your invoice. The space is already included. Want to check out my natural light studio? Click here.

4. Baby Snuggles (My Favorite Perk)

This should go without saying, but just to be crystal clear: I will never charge you for baby snuggles. If I’m holding your sweet babe during a newborn session, it’s because I genuinely love babies (and maybe because it gives your arms a rest and your coffee a chance to get lukewarm).

Baby snuggles are a privilege, not a line item.

So What Do You Pay For?

You’re paying for a stress-free, love-filled experience. You’re paying for my eye, my editing, my time, and all the ways I help bring out the real, beautiful connection in your family.

No surprise fees. No “gotchas.” Just honest pricing, a laid-back vibe, and photos that will make you misty-eyed in the best way.

Ready to Book?

If you're a parent in Asheville or Black Mountain and you've been meaning to finally get family photos, maternity portraits, or that dreamy newborn session—you know, the one where no one’s crying and everyone's glowing—consider this your sign.

Let’s create something beautiful (and snuggle a baby or two along the way).
