Here are the current sessions that are available. It's easy to book a session. Just give me a call (218-289-1320) or send me an email (nicole@joyfulheartphoto.com) to set up a session. We'll discuss the best options for you and get you on my calendar. All sessions must be pre-paid to reserve the time.
Please show up 5-10 minutes before your appointment time. If you will
be late, a phone call or text message informing of the delay is
appreciated. If you will be more than 15 minutes late to your
appointment, you may be required to reschedule. Please give me a call to
see if it's best to reschedule or see if I can still fit you in that
day. People who do not show up or call will forfeit their session fee. Cancellations
or reschedules with less than 24 hour notice will incur a $50
reschedule charge, regardless of the type of session. (Some exceptions may be made, and will be evaluated on a case by case basis.
Unless otherwise arranged, after the photos we will set up a time for you to come back (usually within a week) to the studio for your Viewing and Order Session. It's a fun time to see the images from your photo session and place your order. Because of this, I request that we make the Viewing and Order Session at a time when all decision-makers will be able to be present. One Viewing and Order Session is included in the price of the photo session. Additional ones may be set up later for $15. Online galleries are an option and we can discuss this at the time of your photo session. Some sessions do have a minimum order requirement. I will go over that with you when you book your session.
Please do not hesitate to call and reschedule your appointment if you are feeling unwell or running a temperature. Rescheduled appointments will be at least one week out for safety reasons.

Newborns
Newborns are so amazing. They only have that "newborn look" for a few
short weeks! Newborn sessions are scheduled for up to 3 hours because I
like to take my time with them to get the best images I can. No worries
about needing to take a break from photos for a feeding or diaper
change. In order to concentrate on the baby, the session is limited to
just the newborn and parents. If you would like to include an image or
two with siblings, please contact me directly for details.
