Whether it’s family fun, cozy couple shoots, or your kid showing off their Christmas pajamas — every shot tells a story you’ll want to frame.
Pull up 10 minutes early. That gives you time to breathe, fix that collar, and make sure the kids (or bae) are photo-ready. We roll on schedule, because when the lights come on, it’s showtime.
Have Fun with your outfit selection. Stick with coordinated colors, not identical outfits (unless you into that kind of thing ) — deep reds, golds, creams, and greens always hit right for Christmas. Avoid busy patterns and neon colors. If you’re not sure, text me a few outfit ideas before the shoot — I’ll help you pick what’ll pop best under the studio lights.
Life happens. If you’re running behind, hit me up ASAP. I’ll do my best to work with you, but sessions are booked back-to-back, so late arrivals might lose shoot time. (Still better to show up late than not at all!)
Turnaround time is usually 3 business days depending on your package. You’ll get an online gallery link. If you need them quicker, ask about the Rush Edit option (same day).
A non-refundable retainer is due at booking to lock in your spot, that’s what makes your session official. The remaining balance is due the day of your shoot, before we start snapping.
I accept cash, Venmo, Zelle, and debit/credit (5% fee) — whatever’s easiest for you.
Just remember: no payment, no session. It keeps everything fair and professional on both sides.
Things happen. If you need to reschedule, give me at least 48 hours’ notice so I can move things around. Cancellations with short notice may lose the deposit — not because I’m cold, but because studio time is limited and every slot matters.
Love the little ones and the fur babies, but this ain’t playtime.
Kids should stay close and calm while we shoot. No running, jumping, or touching the setups.
If you bring an animal, it must be part of the shoot. If not, please keep them safe in the car. The studio’s full of lights, cords, and fragile props, safety first, always.
I love good energy, but the studio isn’t the place for running, jumping, or roughhousing.
Between lights, cords, and backdrops, one wrong move can mess up a whole setup or hurt somebody.
Keep the vibe chill, stay respectful, and let’s create something beautiful together.
Weekends fill up quick, so please call or text before booking a Saturday or Sunday session.
I like to confirm availability personally to make sure your time is locked in and we’re not double-booked.
If you book online without checking first, your session may be moved to the next available slot.
’Twas the shoot before Christmas, and all through the set,
Not a wrinkle, not a filter, not one bad angle yet.
The lights were just right, the backdrop was clean,
And every pose looked straight out a magazine.
While folks online post their AI clones,
We’re out here capturing real love tones.
No fake smiles, no pixel-made cheer,
Just real moments that’ll still hit next year.
From babies in bows to couples in red,
I frame every laugh that your heart once said.
November 1st, yeah, we startin’ early,
So book your slot before the calendar’s surly.
Don’t wait ‘til December when I’m booked and gone,
Think ahead like wrapping gifts before dawn.
I’m talkin’ cozy, classy, merry, and bright,
The kind of portraits that glow in the night.
So grab your crew, your fits, your flair,
I’ll bring the magic, you just be there.
Because one thing’s for sure, I promise this truth,
No AI beats L.A. Alston in the booth.
