child & family info
Custom portrait photography is an investment in what you cherish most… your loved ones. Childhood is fleeting and portraits help you remember your children exactly as they are…toothless grins and all! I encourage you to get in the shot for family memories you will always cherish. I hope to capture the tiny details and irreplaceable memories for your family to treasure for generations to come.
Each session begins with a creative session fee, due at the time of booking, to reserve your spot on the calendar and allows me to begin customizing your session.
**Please Note: The session fee does not include digital images, prints or products.**
All session fees, products & digitals are subject to sales tax.
Baby & Child
A baby & child session applies to any child over 5 weeks and children of any age are welcome. Studio sessions are typically in the morning, and outdoor sessions or studio/outdoor combos take place an hour before sunset, so this time varies throughout the year. You will receive an online proof gallery of 35+ images.
*Weekend sessions are available for an additional $75 fee.
session fee: $200+
PLEASE NOTE: Digital files are not included, please see below for package and a la carte pricing.
Cake Smash
First birthday cake smash sessions are one of our most popular sessions, and the perfect way to celebrate your baby turning one.
I have hundreds of props for cake smashes including banners, balloons, and outfits, but my set-ups tend to be simpler to keep the focus on the baby. We’ll discuss theme and/or color preferences upon booking. Sometimes a bath splash add-on is just the thing to clean icing off the face.
*I do ask that clients provide their own cake for liability reasons.
session fee: $250+

Family
Outdoor family sessions take place on my studio property and begin an hour before sunset. Family sessions include a combination of posed and candid images, family, sibling, and individual portraits. Sessions typically last about an hour.
session fee: $225+
PLEASE NOTE: Digital files are not included, please see below for package and a la carte pricing.
Mini Sessions
Each year I design specially themed mini sessions to offer on specific dates only. Sometimes they include unicorns, bluebonnets, Christmas, bath splash, and other fun ways to capture childhood. I typically offer outdoor family mini sessions in the fall.
All mini sessions are announced on the blog and the Chelsea Lietz Photography Facebook page. Mini sessions are only available on pre-set dates and are designed to keep your child’s attention for a short time for a smaller number of specialized images.

Packages & Products
Following your session, you will receive fully retouched proof images in an online gallery that makes it easy to choose favorites and plan for sharing and displaying your portraits. My goal is to create beautiful images that live in your home, not just on your hard drive.
I offer a variety of beautiful, professional quality products for displaying your images including albums, wall art, fine art canvas, prints, and gifts. Samples are displayed and available to view in the studio.
