Packages & Pricing

I am all about capturing authentic connections. This includes getting you interacting and focusing on those in-between moments, all while having fun together, that’s where the magic happens.


What is your photography style?

 Sessions are done at golden hour, 45 minutes before sunset or sunrise.

What time of day do you shoot?

That’s okay! Kids are kids. I use fun prompts, and act silly to lighten the mood which in turn gets them to relax. Remember we’re capturing natural moments.

What if my kids are having tough moments?

At a location in or around the Albuquerque area, mountains, foothills, bosque, etc. 

Where will my session take place?

You can book directly on our website under our “booking” tab. I will send you an invoice and contract. A $100 non-refundable deposit is due upon booking and your final payment is due 4 days before your session.


How do I book and pay?

WHAT IF THERE'S BAD WEATHER?

I have a 4-7 day turnaround time. Once your gallery is ready, you will receive a link to access your images through your online gallery.

"Lavel is incredible! She is truly the best of the best in the photography industry. She communicates very well, is professional, extremely talented, and wonderful to work with! She’s taken our family photos as well as my daughter’s Senior photos. Lavel always goes above and beyond our expectations. She is very quick to send a “sneak peek” of the photos after the session as well as a quick turnaround time in receiving the full gallery of gorgeous photos. She makes taking pictures a fun and enjoyable experience. I HIGHLY recommend her for all of your photography needs, you won’t be disappointed."
