Q&A with Kacie
1 What does a session with you feel like?
A session with me feels relaxed, warm, and genuinely fun whether we are capturing a family day, an engagement, or your wedding. I guide with light, prompt based direction so you can move, laugh, and connect without feeling posed. I am your hype person, encouraging real reactions while watching for the quiet in between moments that tell your story. Kids are welcome to be kids and I work with their rhythm, and for couples I create space for intimacy, emotion, and celebration. Expect gentle prompts, easy pacing, playful moments, and plenty of time to simply be together so your images feel honest, timeless, and true to you.
2 Where do sessions usually take place?
Most clients choose either an outdoor location or to take photos in their home and backyard, where everyone feels comfortable. I’m always happy to help choose a spot based on the kind of atmosphere you’re drawn to and what feels most natural for your family. I also have access to multiple studios around the state of CT and RI for us to use if a studio is your preferred vibe.
Interested in a studio session? Our studio is located right in Newton, CT.
A la carte studio add ons are $150 per hour or $200 for two hours.
3 How do you guide us during the session?
I use individualized prompt based posing and gentle direction to spark real reactions rather than stiff smiles. I offer playful prompts like walk toward me, whisper something sweet, or give a quick tickle to invite movement and genuine laughter. I give simple positioning for hands and feet, then step back and watch for the in between moments. With kids I keep things short, give choices, and follow their lead so moments stay natural. I also pause for quiet connection when it appears and give clear, encouraging cues for couples and families who want a little more guidance. The result is relaxed, emotive images that feel like you.
4 When will we receive our photos?
I edit and deliver the full set of edited images from your session within one week. I do not limit you to a quoted number of files; instead I guarantee you will receive every thoughtfully edited image that represents your session. For weddings I take 2 to 4 weeks to deliver the complete gallery.
All galleries are high resolution, downloadable, and print ready, and I am happy to assist with ordering prints or designing albums.
