Here are some thoughts on what to be prepared with for your photo session:

• Coordinated Outfit Changes – Bring an extra set of outfits for everyone, just in case of spills or messes. Opt for soft, neutral colors or complementary tones for a cohesive look.

• Snacks and Water – Keep everyone fueled and hydrated, especially for young children who may get hungry during the session.

• Favorite Toy or Comfort Item – To help soothe your children or smile naturally during the shoot.

• Hairbrush and Makeup Touch-up Kit – For any last-minute touch-ups to keep everyone photo-ready.

• Special Blanket or Shawl – For cozy family shots or a quick wrap in case of cooler weather.

• Comfortable Shoes – If you’re planning on wearing dressier shoes in the photos, bring a pair of comfy shoes for walking or standing between shots.

• Props or Special Items – If there’s a special family heirloom, sign, or meaningful item you want to include in a shot.

I know preparing for a photo session can be a bit overwhelming, but I'm here to help! Here are my tips for success:

• Coordinate Outfits, Don’t Match:
  Choose outfits for the family that complement each other rather than matching exactly. Soft, neutral tones or colors that blend well will look great in photos. Avoid busy patterns or large logos that can be distracting. If you'd like for me to take a look at what you are thinking ahead of time, don't hesitate to reach out.

• Plan for Breaks:
  With young children, breaks may be needed for snacks, water, or even a quick cuddle. Be flexible and don’t stress about time—some of the best shots happen during those in-between moments when everyone is relaxed.

• Get Plenty of Rest and Keep It Fun:
  Make sure everyone is well-rested before the session, especially young children. If the atmosphere feels fun and relaxed, it will come through in the photos, capturing those genuine smiles and connections!

Typically, clients receive teasers from their session within 24 hours. All photos are delivered to clients within two weeks.

Cancellations:

Makenzi Roberts Photography realizes that life takes twists and turns that are unpredictable and often out of Client’s control; thus, Client may have to cancel services for one reason or another. Regardless, the fiscal impact of a decision to cancel is on how far in advance prior to Clients wedding/event date. Makenzi Roberts Photography is owed a cancellation fee to be paid by Client:
- 60 days or more before your scheduled session: No fee
 - Between 59-30 days before your scheduled session: $50

  - 6 days or less before your scheduled session: $150

Rescheduling:

In the event that Client reschedules the 30 days or more before the scheduled session, all money paid to Makenzi Roberts Photography will be applied to the new date. Similar to a cancellation, rebooking Client's original date is not guaranteed. For any non-weather or illness related reschedules that occur within 30 days before the scheduled session, a $50 rescheduling fee will be applied to the Client's invoice. In the event of inclement weather, Makenzi Roberts Photography reserves the right to reschedule with no additional fee to the client. Makenzi Roberts Photography will alert the Client 24 hours prior to their scheduled session if weather is going to be a possible issue, but the final decision to reschedule is in the hands of the Client.
