Photo Sessions

Great photographs don't always need complicated packages, sitting fees and a calculator to figure out what you're going to spend.

Whether you're looking for creative portraits, headshots, family photos, graduation pictures, maternity portraits—or you simply have an idea you'd like to bring to life—Coldbrewed Creative offers relaxed photo sessions throughout the greater Phoenix area built around you and what you'd like to create.

Pick the session that fits what you're looking for, bring your personality, and let's make some photos.

Can't afford a session? Talk to me.

Packages help cover my time, printing and creative costs, but I don't want money to be the reason someone doesn't have a chance for a positive portrait session with meaningful photos. No promises and no awkward explanations required—just reach out and we'll see what we can figure out.

FAQs

Wait...a cup of coffee? Seriously?

Yep. Coffee makes me happy. Making photographs makes me happy. Sometimes things don't need to be more complicated than that.


What exactly counts as a cup of coffee?

Technically $10 to $15 is like 2 cups of coffee, but taxes are a thing. Ultimately, the cash value will go a lot further in helping me reach future goals for Coldbrewed Creative. However, I will also accept actual coffee. Seriously. A giftcard for coffee also works.


Where do sessions take place?

You tell me. I have a couple of spaces available for studio set ups at little to no cost, and we can also book an established photo studio space (the additional cost of the space will be added to the cost of the shoot in most cases). I’m also open to outdoor location shoots around the valley and surrounding areas. It mostly depends on the type of shoot you are looking for. A family photoshoot in your natural habitat can sometimes be the best kind of family photoshoot.


Can I bring someone?

Absolutely! I encourage you to bring someone along to the shoot. It can be a lot of fun to have friends and family around.


How long until I receive my photos?

Digital images are typically delivered within two weeks. Prints generally arrive within 2–3 weeks after selection, while photo books may take 3–4 weeks after selection.


Can I print the digital files?

Of course! Once you have received the final images, they’re yours to print and share to your heart’s content. My whole goal is for you to love and cherish the moments each image helps you relive and there is no better way to do so than to display them on your walls and share them with others. I’d be happy to make additional prints for you if needed, but I will also never get in the way of you and your preferred printer. 


What should I wear?

Wear something that feels like you. If we're planning something more creative, I'm happy to help brainstorm wardrobe, colors and ideas before the session.


Do I need to know how to pose?

Absolutely not. That's my job. I'll help with posing and direction throughout the session, and if something feels awkward, we'll change it. You don't need to practice your America's Next Top Model poses before showing up.

Still Not Sure Which Session?

That's okay. You don't have to figure everything out before reaching out.

Tell me what you're hoping to photograph, who you'd like to bring, or even just the weird idea that's been bouncing around in your head. We'll figure out which session makes the most sense from there.

Bring the idea. I'll bring the camera. Coffee optional.
