4. WHY DO SESSIONS START SO LATE IN THE DAY?

   Golden Hour: In photography, the golden hour is the period of daytime shortly after sunrise or before sunset, during which daylight is redder and softer than when the Sun is higher in the sky, allowing for photographs to be the most beautiful in the least harshest light. Photographs taken of people during golden hour contribute to more flattering aesthetics.

   
   

5. WHAT IF MY CHILD(REN) ARE SLEEPING BY THIS TIME? CAN I DO A SESSION IN THE MORNING OR EARLIER AFTERNOON?

   The short answer: we can you do your session any time of day, as long as it is not storming, raining and there is no stay at home order. Also considering this will be a south Florida summer, it will also be much hotter and less windy outside of golden hour times, which can contribute to more squinted eyes by all family members and more sweating, and less comfortability. But it can be done and it can come out beautifully, so long as the family is flexible and laid back.

6. WHAT IF I NEED TO CANCEL?

   If you or your child are severly ill with cold or fever on the day of your session, you can reschedule once.

7. WHAT HAPPENS IF A PAULINA SPLECHTA PHOTOGRAPHY BIRTH CLIENT GOES INTO LABOR?

   First and foremost I am a birth photographer. I am on-call 24 hours per day, 7 days a week for my birth client pregnancies. Babies come when they want. Even with scheduled inductions and scheduled c/sections, babies still come when they want. So when the babies are coming, so am I. Keep in mind, I only work with 2 birth clients each month. So the chances that one of my birth clients is in labor the day of your family’s lifestyle session is 2 days out of the 30 days of the month This is why I have each of my LIFESTYLE FAMILY SESSION clients select 1 main date followed by 2 back up dates.

8. WHAT ARE OTHER REASONS WHY YOUR SESSION MAY GET RESCHEDULED?

   1. Rain!
