The KELSEY LAYMAN PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE


RESERVE YOUR DATE

Inquire about your desired date or timeframe. For sessions, I recommend reserving at least 4-6 weeks prior to your session to allow time for planning and styling.

For weddings and elopements, highly desired dates fill up quickly. I recommend scheduling 6-12 months in advance.

Fall dates go quickly, so additional planning may be needed to guarantee a date during this time.

COLLABORATION

Once your date is reserved, we will spend time getting to know each other and planning for your dream location or venue. For sessions, we will collaborate on styling and ensure your vision comes to life.

For elopements and weddings, I can give you recommendations for locations, and will help with timeline planning so the day runs smoothly and you get the coverage you desire.

DREAM DAY

The day is here and it’s all about you! You get to be in the moment and experience all of your dreams come to life. We will spend time playing and experiencing the location as you would if it were a family outing. I will give you direction that feels loose and flowy and allows for me to capitalize on the organic moments that arise themselves.

My goal for elopements and weddings is to document you experiencing your day and living in the moment as well as stylized portraits in the beautiful scenery of your day. I will provide you with images that make all the beautiful memories come flooding back time after time.

GALLERY DELIVERY

You will have access to your full session gallery within 3 weeks of your session. For elopements and weddings, your full gallery will be delivered within 6 weeks of your day.

From your gallery, you will have direct access to an online store where you can turn your gallery or favorite images into professionally printed images, canvases, and albums.
