FAQ

Two ways:
1 - Send me a message and we can talk over what you are looking for. Once you are ready, I'll send you a link to book your session.
2 - Book directly at https://maribellephotography.pixieset.com/booking/ (if you are expecting, select a date within 1-2 weeks after your due date and we can adjust as needed once baby arrives).

It depends on which package you select when booking! I always offer the ability to purchase additional photos to be edited when you review your proofs.

I have a studio in Buckley, Washington!

I do not currently book sessions outside of my immediate area.

I aim to get proofs to you within a week, and then full edits back within two weeks from when you make your selections and pay any outstanding balances.

Yes, I do! In the "referral" tab I outline the two referral programs I offer to help you get a discount on your session.

I take cash, debit/credit cards, paypal, stripe, venmo - pretty much every method of payment except Cryptocurrency.

I also offer payment plans - if you need to set one up I can either do that with you directly or I accept Klarna or Affirm.

I do! I can either set you up with a payment plan directly, or I accept Klarna or Affirm payment plans.

General Sessions - I try to schedule sessions at least two weeks in advance, though I can occasionally do last-minute bookings.

Newborn Sessions - usually done within the first 1 to 2 weeks after baby is born. Schedule your session based on your due date, and we can adjust as needed if baby comes significantly early or late. I do not have a "cut off" for babies that have missed this two-week window, but sleepy babies tend to be the exception as babies exit their freshly born phase, and we usually can fit fewer setups in during the time for your session.

If baby has already been born, I recommend visiting the "book now" page to see what my immediate openings are. If none are available, send me a message to see if I can move things around in my schedule to free up a session for you.

Common-touch surfaces will be wiped down prior to your session, and all props/backdrops are sanitized and cleaned between sessions. Any items that cannot be thouroughly sanitized go into a two-week "quarantine" and therefore not every prop may be available for every session. If you have a must-have prop, please let me know so I can reserve it for your session.

I do not have a rescheduling fee - If you or your child is feeling unwell, please let me know and we will reschedule your session. Children aren't their usual selves when they are feeling sick, I'd much rather we reschedule. (I also try my best to avoid contact with people who are sick, because I will not photograph a newborn if I'm potentially contagious).

I've received the COVID vaccine, and can provide my vaccine card if you would like to see it.
You are not required to be vaccinated, though I do ask if you are feeling unwell that you reach out so we can re-schedule.
