What can I expect from you as my photographer?
What is your turnaround time?
How will I receive my pictures?
Do you offer professional prints?
Do I have to order prints through you?
How long does a session last?
What happens if my child gets sick before our session?
What happens if it rains?

Do I choose the location for my outdoor session?
One of my top priorities is making sure you're thrilled with your gallery, and I give 120% of myself to every session. You can definitely expect to have fun! I’m down-to-earth, a little silly, and love creating a relaxed atmosphere where everyone feels at ease. I always leave sessions with new friends, and being a big kid at heart, I make sure the kids have a blast too. My secret weapon? A famous duck call that never fails to get laughs and smiles! There’s nothing I love more than hearing that your kids couldn’t stop talking about the session on the way home. I truly adore what I do, and I hope we get the chance to work together and create some lasting memories.
My turnaround time depends on the season and my current workload, but I always strive to be fair by editing sessions in the order they were shot. I typically let clients know to expect their gallery within 7-14 business days, allowing for any unforeseen delays. However, most of the time, you'll receive your beautifully edited images much sooner—often within the week! I prioritize delivering high-quality work while ensuring you get your photos as quickly as possible.
Once your gallery is fully edited, I will upload your images to a private online gallery and email you the link along with a pin for downloading your photos. If you prefer, I can also text the link to you for easier access.
After receiving your gallery, it’s important to download all your images and store them in a safe place. While I don’t delete your images, the online gallery won’t remain up indefinitely. Please note that after 3 months, there will be a small fee to re-upload the gallery if needed.
Absolutely! You can conveniently order prints directly from your gallery. Each image has small icons, and all you have to do is click the shopping cart icon, then select the prints or products you’d like to order. We also offer beautiful custom albums—just reach out to me for pricing and details, and I’ll be happy to help you create the perfect keepsake!
No, you don’t need to print through me, but I do recommend it for the best quality. Printing through your gallery ensures that your images are color-corrected and printed to the highest standards. If you choose to print elsewhere, such as at Walgreens or CVS, you might not get the same color accuracy and quality. For the best results, especially for larger prints, I suggest using professional printing services like MPIX Pro.
It really does depend on the session as well as so many other factors like rain or waiting on the clouds to cover the sun at just the right moment. Maybe your little one needs a break for a snack. Whatever the case may be, I do not like to rush my sessions so I will keep shooting until I know that I have got what I need.
Mini sessions do however have a strict time limit as they are booked back to back.
I completely understand that things come up, and it's very common for little ones to get sick. As a mom myself, I know how unpredictable things can be. I’m more than happy to be flexible and reschedule your session if your child isn’t feeling well. Your baby’s happiness is my top priority, and I want to ensure we have the best experience possible. Please just let me know as soon as you can, and we’ll find a new time that works for everyone.
I will worry about keeping an eye out on the weather. It's Miami and sometimes it pours for five minutes then its beautiful so I kinda like to play it by ear. If you feel more comfortable not doing that then I have no issues rescheduling for you.
I don’t set a specific number or limit on the images you’ll receive. I aim to deliver all the best shots from your session, and my clients often mention how many photos they get! On average, you can expect to receive over 50 images from a full session. For themed mini sessions (like Easter, Fall, Christmas, etc.), you’ll usually receive around 20-30 images. My goal is to provide you with a wonderful collection of memories to cherish!
If there is a particular location you prefer to use I am all for it. If you are unsure of where to go I have a variety of options for you to choose from.

"I have been using Candy since my daughter was born and she is now 7. Her pictures are beautiful. You can tell she enjoys what she does and has a way with kids. Even made my husband smile in pictures and he doesn't do that often. I highly recommend her."

She has captured my family's Christmas pictures, my daughter's first birthday with cake smash. She brought my vision to life. She will shortly capture my daughter's 2nd birthday as well as a mommy and me session for Mother's Day. Thank you for capturing all these treasured moments. I would highly recommend Modern Image."

"Candy is simply amazing! She goes above and beyond in every shoot. I toss her ideas and she brings them to life. I love her spunk, her trigger finger, & her edits! Never have I been disappointed in her work but I'm sure if I ever do she would do everything in her will to make me happy again. It's just her nature to do extra! Her turn-around time is decent but she has always provided the pics waaaaay ahead of the estimated time. Her way with kids is absolutely great!"

"Candy was amazing! She was able to accommodate the date and time on short notice. Her studio is gorgeous and lends itself to a wide range of photo opportunities. We did the Christmas Minis as well as my baby’s one year old pictures - the set looked like it came right out of the Toy Story movie. I even requested breast feeding pictures during the shoot, which she accommodated to without hesitation. I can’t recommend her enough - she’s sweet and friendly, professional, and her work speaks for itself! ♥️"
