So what's the next step?
Let's meet and talk about how you've always dreamed of being photographed! Let's talk about what you envision for your look or event. I'd love to get to know you better. I'll also bring some of my products to share with you.
How exactly does your Session pricing work?
I require a deposit and a signed contract to reserve your time and date for your heirloom portrait session.
After our photo session, I will process your images, then we will meet for a viewing where you view your images and you can order all of the images that you love in the best way for you to share and/or display them.
Your deposit is applied to your final total for your purchases. It's my passion to ensure that you love your images and want to keep them to cherish forever.
I'd love to give you a complimentary consultation! Do not hesitate to email with all your questions, I'd be happy to answer any you have! melissa@mnfineartphoto.com
**Please note: If you have reserved a Digital Only Portrait Session, I require payment in full to reserve your time and date for your session. Upon completion of the photographs I will deliver them to you digitally.**

What should I wear?
Let's talk about the look you'd like to achieve and we can craft a plan to make your outfits fit that goal or theme.
A few simple tips when in doubt:
Pick neutral colors: black, white, tan, grey.
No logos, writing, stripes, or plaid.
Texture is a great alternative to add interest to your outfit without it taking the spotlight off of YOU.
For families, I recommend laying out all the clothes together prior to your session and making sure that the colors complement each other. You can get a good idea what they will look like that way! It's good to use the same color family, or use complementary colors and patterns without all wearing the exact same outfits.
I also have a Pinterest board with some great ideas here: Dress for your Session!

Do you offer hair or makeup?
At this time I do not offer hair or makeup services.
Can I reschedule in case of emergency or illness?
Yes. I totally understand that sometimes life just happens. Emergencies pop up. Children fall ill. These are totally understandable circumstances and I will try my best to work with you to reschedule your session.
How does your Wedding pricing work?
Weddings are a unique event because they combine event capturing and also portraiture.
I consider weddings a story, and I want to tell your story from start to finish in images. That means getting to know you as a couple and then tailoring specifically to encompass capturing your day within your event schedule.
I can never predict how many images you will receive from your special day; that depends on many factors including how long your wedding is and how long you've reserved my time, what types of events you have planned, decorations, and most importantly how large your wedding party is, and how long or short your ceremony is.
My pricing is tailored so that you will receive all of the finished and edited photos on a customized disc (or USB) with any package. You do not have to 'pick and choose'. You get everything professionally selected from your day.

Can you shoot my wedding or portraits like 'so & so'?
Yes and no. I love to have an open dialog and exchange of ideas and some of the best images and most rockin' photoshoots have come from a collaboration between clients and me! That's what I'd like to do. Bring your images and ideas and let's elevate them to an even higher level. In short, I photograph in my own style and I'm hoping that you already like my style - but I'd love to collaborate with you!
