Frequently Asked Questions

Because you want to work with someone who understands the importance of family, who is passionate about what she does, has the skill and experience to capture beautiful, flattering images and believes in having fun and making people feel like they are truly valued. Most importantly it will be because, like me, you value a long-lasting, tangible representation of these moments in time, NOT digital files (though a matching digital photo comes any photo purchase).

Whether it is a beautiful canvas, framed print or an exquisite album treasury of photos on your coffee table, my clients appreciate knowing that those physical heirlooms will last beyond their lifetime to be passed on to their children and beyond. If you are only looking for a few digital files on a USB then I am honestly not the photographer for you, and I wish you all the best in your hunt for your perfect photographer.

WHY CHOOSE TS GALLANT PHOTOGRAPHY?

WHAT IS YOUR EXPERIENCE?

I have over 40 years of experience with newborns and children, beginning with my very first weekly-paid job at age 10, daily babysitting a toddler (yes, that was allowed, way back when). I’m a mother of three children, myself (including a spectrum child), an aunt, and a grandmother. In my life, I have also been an “auntie” to many friend’s children, a babysitting neighbor, have been employed as a full-time nanny and am a former nurse and EMT. I have been photographing babies and children for over 15 years, passed newborn posing safety courses from the world renouned Kelly Brown and have completed the in-person, intensive Baby Academy with the most famous and highly sought-after newborn photographer in the country, Ana Brandt.

The safety of ALL children is my biggest priority, so little ones are never left unattended or unsupported. Even before this new outbreak of the Coronavirus and Covid-19, I practiced rigorous sanitation of props, materials, outfits and my own hands and equipment.

Let me walk you through the steps, below.

  1. An in-person consultation to discuss what image style most appeals to you, what color scheme best fits into your home decor, what type of art you desire for display in your home and to answer any questions you may have. We will discuss props, posing, backdrop sets and wardrobe options, as well as answer any pricing questions you may still have so you are ready at your separate Reveal & Ordering appointment where your photos from the session are ordered separately (nothing is included in session fee).

  2. Non-refundable booking retainer (applied toward your session fee), go over and sign the contract and firmly schedule both your photo session and Reveal & Ordering appointment in my calendar. I can not book your session without the non-refundable booking retainer.

  3. Access to my entire client closet of couture maternity gowns, children’s clothing, newborn outfits and wraps and various accessories and a complimentary wardrobe fitting, so you can choose your options. This service is offered as a convenience to you and is included in the session fee (using your own wardrobe does not discount the session fee).

  4. Instructional information emailed to you to help prepare you for the best session possible

  5. Session day. You will be photographed in as many outfits and background sets as can be fit into 2 hours. Most people it’s 3 but I have done as many as 7. Family is everything so a session can include mom, dad, baby, siblings and well behaved pets.

  6. Reveal & Ordering appointment will usually take place within a few days of your session. This is done at the studio, in the reception area. At this session, you will view approximately 25 wonderful unedited images to choose from and place your order (remember, no photos or digitals are included in the session fee), which will then be edited. I can accept credit or debit card payments, Venmo, Paypal or cash.
    ALL IMAGES FROM THE SESSION, WHETHER PHYSICAL OR DIGITAL, ARE SEPARATELY PURCHASED. NONE ARE INCLUDED IN THE SESSION FEE.

  7. Editing may take anywhere from 5-30 days, depending on how many photos have been ordered (expect delays from Oct-Dec). Album design and creation takes 3-4 weeks. You may choose to wait for all of your images to be delivered together or the album to be delivered separately, when it arrives, as prints always arrive first.

  8. Your order will be personally delivered to your home within 14-30 days of our reveal and ordering session (up to 40 days if ordering a custom leather album), depending on the number of items purchased and any album upgrades that add to production time. No order refunds will be made after money is paid. No editing changes or order substitutions can be made after order is submitted (you can add to your order).

  9. Digital images will be initially trickled in via email as I edit, so you can approve the edits before I place the order. The “Digital Collection” will be delivered on custom USB, after edits have been approved.
