The process is exactly the same as if you were booking your session with me!  I am building a team of hand-picked photographers that I feel match my shooting style very closely, and that I feel are fun and sweet to be around!  You will book your session through me, and I will take care of all the preparation and communication ahead of time.  I usually send out a few emails before your session, and will include your photographer's phone number so you can touch base and communicate about meeting up and any other specifics about the day.  


how does it work?

Once the session is over, your photographer will deliver the images to me to complete the editing process - this ensures that your photos will match the style you have seen on my website and throughout my portfolio.  

I am so excited to partner with some of the sweetest photographers in Knoxville, and I'm so thankful for their commitment to beautiful work and capturing the most precious memories! I know you will love them too! :)

meet  the photographers

Stacey is one of the sweetest souls I've ever met, and I just love her! She is a kind, gentle spirit, and will make you feel at ease at your session! She's young and full of life! Stacey shares my love of newborn photography and she is just who you want to capture those first days with your little one! Her style is light, natural, and sweet!

Locations

01

before your session

Once you've booked your session, you will receive a few different reminder emails from Karen, along with how to best prepare for your session and ways to style your family!

It's best to determine your family's outfits at least a couple of weeks before your session in case you need to shop and try things on!  

As we get closer to your session date, we'll keep an eye on the weather and touch base if anything changes!


02

during your session

Yay!  The day is finally here!  Just remember - your family photos should be relaxed, not stressful!  We promise to take good care of you!

Your photographer will get a few of the "posed" images for your mantle, but the magic happens when you're having fun!  She will guide you into "poses" and where to look, but then she will give you some prompts to help the interactions be genuine and sweet and beautiful! Lots of snuggling and tickling and happy things!


03

after your session

Karen will be the one editing your images!  It will take about 2 weeks to finish the edits on your images.  Once they are done, Karen will email you a link to your online gallery for you to download your photos!  We recommend to double back-up your photos to your computer and a cloud service, just to be safe!

You may print anywhere you'd like, or if you'd like the convenience of ordering them straight from your gallery, we've partnered with some fantastic print labs that will take really great care of you!
