Frequently Asked Questions

Where are you located?

I am available for sessions throughout Minnesota. I live in Mankato so can easily work with you if you live in the Greater Mankato area. I am also happy to travel to Minneapolis, Northern Minnesota, and even to Chicago or Nashville, TN and definitely beyond!

What's your photography style?

I love lifestyle photography. My style is more of a natural and organic experience. I want you to be comfortable, be yourself, and enjoy your time. If needed, I can give you direction but then let you have fun and make it your own. I love capturing clients laughing, snuggling, walking hand-in-hand and just living in the moment and creating memories together.

What kind of sessions do you offer?

I offer couples, fresh 48, newborn, family, senior portraits, engagement, and maternity sessions. I also photograph weddings and anniversary events. 

Do you shoot in a studio or outdoors?

I love shooting outdoors! I am obsessed with natural light and truly believe you will love the look of natural light too. When photographing outdoors, sunrise and sunset give the most beautiful flattering light, so I prefer to shoot around those times of day. As a past nanny and a new mother, I understand nap schedules and the craziness of life, so I am flexible to shoot at other times of day! I’m also happy to do at home sessions for families where we can photograph indoors and outdoors. You can bake treats together, play in your backyard, or cuddle on the couch together.

How do you receive payment?

A $100 deposit is due upon booking and the remaining is due the day of our shoot.

How long will it take to receive my edited images?

I have a very quick turn-around time!  I love to edit the images and get them to you as quickly as possible.  I ask that you allow just a short 1-2 weeks to receive your final images. 

How will you deliver my images to me?

I will email you a link where you can view your images in your own personalized gallery.  You can download your images instantly and use them wherever you please! 

I would like to share my images on my social media sites, is that okay?

Yes! Absolutely!! I just ask that you give me photo credit by mentioning me or tagging me, @sarahkleephotography on Facebook and Instagram. And I do kindly request that you don't alter the images (cropping or using a filter.) If you would like any changes in photos for me to edit, please just shoot me an email and I’d be happy to change them up before you post!
