Frequently Asked Questions

The Signature Story Session was intentionally designed with flexibility in mind, making it the perfect foundation for additional storytelling time. Its pace allows room for deeper connection, more creative exploration, and a beautifully relaxed experience without shifting the nature of the session itself.

Mini Fairy Sessions are crafted to be short, whimsical, and efficient, while Deluxe Enchanted Sessions already include an expanded experience with additional time, variety, and artistic detail built in from the start.

Because of this, Extended Storytime is offered exclusively with the Signature Story Session to create a balanced in-between option for clients who would love a little more time without committing to the full Deluxe experience.

The Complete Gallery enhancement is exclusively offered with the Signature Story and Deluxe Enchanted sessions because these longer experiences allow the time and creative flexibility needed to capture a wider variety of beautifully polished images, meaningful moments, and storytelling details. 

No. The Complete Gallery Collection enhancement does not mean that you will receive every photo taken. 

The Complete Gallery Collection is an optional enhancement that allows you to receive the full curated gallery from your session rather than selecting only your included images. Each session includes a thoughtfully edited collection of images chosen to tell your story beautifully and intentionally. With the Complete Gallery Collection enhancement, you’ll receive every hand-edited image selected for final delivery — including additional candid moments, gentle in-between expressions, storytelling details, and artistic variations that may not have made your original selection list. This enhancement is perfect for clients who fall in love with the full experience and never want to narrow down their favorites.

Please note that all galleries are artistically curated by Fairy Tails Furtography Studio to ensure every delivered image reflects the quality, emotion, and whimsical storytelling style of the studio. Raw or unedited images are not included.

Travel within a select local radius of Fairy Tails Furtography Studio is included with your session. Sessions taking place beyond the included travel area may require a small travel investment based on distance and location.

Travel fees help cover additional time, mileage, and preparation for locations farther from the studio’s local service area while still allowing the flexibility to create sessions in meaningful or beautifully unique settings.

If you have a specific location in mind — whether it’s a quiet field, woodland trail, charming small town, or sentimental family property — I’m always happy to discuss the details and help determine the best fit for your session vision.

Any applicable travel investment will always be discussed and approved prior to booking.

Your photographer will be in touch prior to your session to schedule an introductory call. Additionally, you will be asked to complete a questionnaire and are required to review and sign a client agreement. Your photographer will also provide you with a "client guide" to ensure all participants know what to expect on the day of the session.

Absolutely! Pets of any kind are welcome and often play a starring role in our portraits. Their comfort and safety are always a priority.

No worries! Children and pets rarely need to sit perfectly still to create beautiful images. Sessions are relaxed and designed to allow plenty of time for play, exploration, and genuine moments. 

If weather conditions would negatively impact your session, we'll work together to reschedule for the next available date at no additional cost. 

Absolutely. We understand that life happens, and we want your portrait experience to be as enjoyable and stress free as possible. 

Sessions may be rescheduled with at least 48 hours' notice and are subject to availability. If weather or an unforeseen circumstance affects your scheduled session, please reach out as soon as possible so that we can find a new date that works for everyone. 

Session dates are reserved exclusively for each client, so cancellations or rescheduling requests made with less than 48 hours' notice may result in the forfeiture of the session retainer. 

My goal is always to create a relaxed, magical experience, so I will do my best to accommodate reasonable scheduling changes whenever possible.
