Frequently Asked Questions

  • How far in advance should I Book?

    For portrait sessions, I recommend booking at least two months in advance to allow for proper planning and preparation.

  • How would you describe your editing style?

    There are a lot of popular editing styles that tend to go out of date quickly. I specialize in vivid and true-to-life editing so that your images will stand the test of time.

  • Do you offer packages?

    Everyone has different interests and budgets when it comes to photography products. I don’t want my clients to be forced to purchase anything they don’t want. That is why I offer everything as A La Carte so that you get exactly what you want.

  • Do you offer digital images?

    I am a big believer in the power of tangible prints. I also know how important sharing images are. That is why I provide the corresponding digital file with all product purchases.

  • What is your policy on rescheduling?

    Life gets busy and illnesses happen. I try to be as flexible as possible when given proper notice of the need to reschedule. Rescheduling due to weather is at the determination of Giftbox Creations. Failure to show up to a session results in the forfeiture of the session fee.

  • Do you offer retouching?

    All photos are edited to be consisten with my true-to-life style. I work with Clients to understand the level of detailed edits desired. Removal of acne, bruises, scrapes are considered standard. More detailed edits may involve additional fees. All additional fees are discussed and agreed to ahead of time.

  • When do you schedule sessions?

    Senior portrait sessions are scheduled Monday through Thursday and Weddings are scheduled Friday through Sunday unless alternative arrangements are made.

  • Where are you located?

    I am located in Coon Rapids, MN. I travel all over the Twin Cities for on-location sessions. Travel beyond the Twin Cities may involve travel fees.
