Choosing Your Heirloom OUtfit
You’ve convinced your hubby to let you invest in this one time experience. A huge selling point for the dads is that you don't have to purchase an outfit because I have an entire Heirloom Collection for you to borrow from completely free of charge! I have outfits for both boys and girls ranging from size 6 months to size 6! I will send you my Heirloom Collection Guide for you to pick out your heirloom outfit.
TIME FOR
Your Session
My hope is that every session with me feels easy and STRESS FREE. My desire is to document the true personality of your little one. The true smiles and laughter. Every second of your experience should feel comfortable and easy. Have a toddler that's a little uncooperative for pictures? Phew, so do I! Wild little ones are my specialty!
SNEAK PEEK DELIVERY
You can expect a sneak peek in 2 weeks. I will edit the portrait in my signature heirloom edit that I think is best. You will receive a gallery with several lifestyIe portraits for you to choose from. Don't like the one I edited? No problem! I will re-edit your favorite one at no extra charge! Once you've chosen your favorite one, it's time to decide if you want to print and/or frame the portrait through me!
PRINTS, DIGITALS, AND FRAMES
The beauty of this experience is that you can choose to invest as little or as much as you’d like into your heirloom portraits. The entire purpose behind having your child's heirloom portraits done is: TO FRAME THEM! Let me take all of the pressure off of you and walk you through my custom framing experience. Printed on fine art paper and in museum glass, this portrait is meant to last generations. You can choose to purchase loose prints, digitals, OR have everything printed and framed with me.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best age for heirlooms?
YOU're PROBABLY WONDERING
There is NO such thing! You get to decide when you want to do them for your little one. The only qualification is that your little one can sit up unassisted!
can i only book a session on a mini session day?
Not at all! Heirloom mini session days are the best way to snag a spot on a weekend. You can set up your own private session on any MWF morning or afternoon! Just let me know that when you inquire! This is at no additional cost to you!
does my little one have to wear one of your heirlooms?
I realize that a big thing with an heirloom portrait session is putting your little one in a family heirloom outfit! They can wear whatever you'd like for them to. The heirloom collection was created to take the stress of finding an outfit off of you!
what's the average heirloom investment?
The sitting fee is $250 for the first child and $125 for each additional child. The overall investment varies from family to family. Some choose to only purchase the digital image and then print and frame it themselves. Some choose to purchase loose prints and frame it themselves. Most choose to allow me to take care of ALL of it for them and let me print and frame it for them. My hope is that this format allows everyone of all budgets to invest in this experience! You can read all about the investments in my Heirloom Portrait Experience Guide when you inquire.
Where will this session take place?
Your little one's heirloom session will take place in my studio. I am located in Dothan, Alabama. If you would like for me to travel to you, I can certainly do that for a small travel fee!
How often do you have heirloom mini session days?
I aim to do them every quarter! This is the best way to guarantee a weekend date if week days don't work for you.
The term you get what you pay for is so true with her and it's a total investment...
Josie made our heirloom session such a smooth and easy experience with my busy little 9 month old boy. She has so many outfits you are able to choose from in all sizes and will even help you pick what she thinks looks best. The term you get what you pay for is so true with her and it's a total investment to capture these precious pictures to pass down with your little one. My family is so thankful we made this investment with Josie and to have it hanging in our home to remember our little boy by at this age will always be worth it! Josie and her experience is a major bonus!
