What area of Connecticut does Inspired Photography photograph in?
I am strictly in the New Haven County area.
When is the best time to book maternity and newborn photos?
Maternity photos should be booked between 28-33 weeks.

When is it best to book Holiday photos or any photos that I may need by a certain date?
My average turn around time is two weeks, however around the holidays I tend to be a little more busy than normal, so it is best to book your shoot 3 weeks prior to needing your photos.

A typical sessions last about an hour. This can be longer or shorter depending on a variety of factors.

With Inspired Photography there is no need to be worried about rushing. Relax and take an easy as we get the best photos possible.
Do you have a studio?
As of right now, I do not have a studio. Sessions are done in-home and on location
Where will the session take place?
Newborn sessions always take place in the comfort of your own home, if it is warm out we may decide to do a couple of shots in an area nearby as well.
Other sessions take place in parks, fields, urban areas, or any other location of your choice including your own home and yard. For toddlers and kids on the shy side, it is best to pick a place that is familiar to them.
What are some of your favorite locations?
Some of my personal favorite places to photograph in include beaches, meadows, in the client's home, and any place new and exciting.
What should I expect in the session?
I try to keep you and your family as comfortable as possible. We will chit-chat for a few minutes before getting started and I will introduce myself to the kids. It is important that they feel comfortable with me before we get started. After that, we will do a mixture of posed and candid shots. I will take family shots, sibling shots, and everyone by themselves. Breaks are fine and so are outfit changes.
Do you bring props?
I prefer to focus on emotions and connections rather than props, You are more than welcome to bring a child's favorite toy, book, and an item that hold special meaning to you and your family.
What should we wear?
Comfort and style is the number 1 priority, you can find some suggestions here.
Do you offer payment plans?
The deposit must be paid before you book your shoot, However, the balance can be paid off within a month of your session. Photos will not be delivered to you until you are fully paid up.
