2023 Sunflower Field Sessions
Thank you so much for your interest in a Sunflower Field session!
Please read ALL the details below and fill out a form, which is at THE VERY BOTTOM of this page.
1) WHERE/WHEN: Sessions will take place from 5:45pm-7:15pm on Friday, September 8th (rain date Saturday the 9th) at a nearby field around Unionville, PA (exact address to be provided upon booking).
2) RAIN: I will be watching the weather forecast closely and make the decision for a rain cancellation by 4:30pm. I will send a text message and email out to everyone letting them know. If the rain looks like it is going to hold off, but then begins in the middle of the sessions, I will let everyone know AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
3) RAIN DATES: If it is going to rain on Friday, the rain date is scheduled for Saturday. If you cannot make BOTH dates, please do not sign up for a session.
4) HOW LONG: Sessions are 15 minutes long and scheduled back to back. Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early so you can park, get yourselves ready, and walk up the hill to the field. If you are late, your session will be cut short out of courtesy for others. Your money is non-refundable if you fail to show, or fail to get there on time as I have turned others away to reserve your time spot.
5) WHO: Each time slot is for 1 family, up to 5 people. Each additional person is $50+tax. These sessions are great for children, families, and maternity sessions. If for any reason you do not feel that we will be able to capture your family in that time frame, you are welcome to sign up for back-to-back time slots, but will need to pay booking fees for both.
6) BEES: Yes, there will be bumblebees and honeybees at the field. In 9 years of photographing in flower fields (both sunflowers and lavender), I have yet to have a client get stung during a session. The bees are much more interested in the flowers then us, and because I shoot in the evenings, they move slower and start to get sleepy. However, if you or anyone in your household is highly allergic to bee stings, please consider your safety first.
7) ONLINE PROOF GALLERY: Your images will available for you to see via an online proof gallery, which will be sent to you within 14 business days. All of the images will be unedited, the exception of 1 so you will be able to get an idea of the style (see images above as examples of what you can expect as a typical edit).
8) WHAT TO WEAR: I suggest white/cream, tan/beige, shades of blue, yellow, and gray/greige.. Avoid patterns and logos. See some examples of what to wear in the above images. Moms - if you are going to be in the pictures, it's always a good idea to start with your outfit, one that makes you feel your best! I love flowy dresses, maybe even a sun hat or flower crown. The same outfit idea applies to girls, although they also look adorable in shorter dresses or rompers. Dads and boys can be in a causal white/cream/pale blue polo or button up shirt with jeans or khakis.
9) COST: The cost is $299+tax. This reserves your spot, includes a 10-15 minute session, 3 digital images of your choice, and an online proof gallery. Additional digital images can be purchased for $50/ea. Because sessions are booked on a first-come-first-serve basis, as soon as I confirm your time, I will send you over a PayPal invoice. Payment is due within 24 hours or your spot will be reopened, no exceptions.
