From planning to the session itself, I aim to make the process stress-free and enjoyable. Your session will be tailored to reflect your unique story and personality. I take the time to ensure you feel comfortable and at ease, allowing your true self to shine. We’ll laugh, explore, and create beautiful memories together!
After the session, the excitement continues as you get to see your photos. I’ll carefully edit each image to bring out its best qualities, and then provide you with a gallery where you can relive every moment. Take your time to savor these memories, share them with loved ones, and cherish them for years to come.
On the day of your session, it’s all about enjoying the moment. Let the littles explore, dance in the rain—do your thing! I’ll provide guidance to help you feel comfortable (no need to worry about what to do with your hands), but mostly, we’ll just hang out and let the magic happen.
After you reach out, we’ll have a chat to get to know your story and craft the experience around your vision. We'll discuss your ideas, preferences, and any specific moments you want to capture. If we’re a good fit, we’ll secure the date with a contract.
“MiKalla did a fantastic job of capturing our girls and their individual personalities! She was great at communicating with us and making sure she understood what we were wanting. We received beautiful photographs I will forever treasure! She was so kind and great with our girls! Professional and caring. Talented, artistic and yet diligent to give her client what they want in their photographs. I would highly recommend her to any and everyone!”
“MiKalla's work on our engagement pictures is amazing and we can't wait to have her be our wedding photographer! I loved the planning process with MiKalla - she made it so easy and included lots of details and questions I hadn't even considered. And the actual photo shoot was so much fun!! I really appreciated all the prompts and directions she gave - it put my fiancé and me at ease and resulted in really beautiful pictures! We couldn't have asked for a better experience.”
“We had a phenomenal time with MiKalla! She sent us a fun questionnaire before our session to hear out our vision for what we wanted specifically, and she remembered all of those details at the session! She made us feel so seen and heard. We loved getting to work with her and are obsessed with the photos! Highly recommend MiKalla Fertig Photo!”
“I cannot describe how incredibly amazing MiKalla Fertig is! My son's senior portrait session was amazing - everything I had hoped for ... AND MORE! From the questionnaire beforehand, to the phone call a few days before (where she really listened to the personality of my son and what he wanted) to getting him to pose, smile, and even laugh...it was a dream! I am more than happy with how our photos turned out. HIGHLY recommend using her for ANY photos your family needs.”
"I love Mikalla’s eye for detail. She did our gender reveal and captured so many details that I would have otherwise forgotten in the midst of the excitement. She also helped to make sure our timeline for the event was running smoothly. I loved the little bit of guidance so I could relax and not worry about when to do what. She’s the best."
“As a friend of MiKalla's, I was already expecting greatness from our session. However, she blew my expectations out of the water! MiKalla makes you feel so calm and relaxed, it truly wasn't hard to feel or "look" joyful in the pictures. She cares so much about every little detail, which made me feel so seen and cared for. She truly wants the best for YOU! If you want a stress free, warm, and inviting photo session, MiKalla is your girl!”
"I was a little worried about taking newborn family pictures just a few short weeks after having our daughter. I really wasn’t sure if I’d be up for it and did not want to add extra stress to our plate. But Mikalla made the process so easy and smooth! She made us feel so natural, calm, and confident. And the pictures came out GORGEOUS! We received a sneak peek of photos shortly after our session and I couldn’t stop looking at them. Mikalla captured our girl and family so well! She is so gifted at her art and a true a joy to work with! I highly recommend using her for all your photos because you’ll walk away with memories captured so beautifully!"
I don't put a number on or ever limit the photos you receive because I believe you deserve every acceptable image from your session. You can trust that your gallery will have a variety of options! Generally, you can expect at least 100 images for every hour of coverage.
