I'll be the one with the camera
Megan is the Production Manager and photographer at Ivory House Photography. She specializes in newborn, senior, and family sessions.

As a newborn photographer, she has that special touch and knows just what to do to capture those sweet cheeks and tiny toes. As production manager, she plays a vital role in delivering images with the lightning fast turnaround time that Ivory House is known for.

When she isn’t behind the camera photographing or behind a desk, editing images, she enjoys fishing with the love of her life and playing with her niece and nephew.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a mini session right for my family?
Mini sessions are ideal for the annual family update, updated couple’s shots, or for a dynamic human/dog duo. These 15-minute sessions are held at designated family mini session days throughout the year. Mini sessions can accommodate up to 6 faces (pups count as a face) and come with all the images from the shoot with a light skin filter applied.

Looking for something more? We also offer legacy family sessions for those reunions or big family moments. This package includes an hour of shooting at the location of your choice and can accommodate an unlimited number of people and puppies. The session fee includes 20 polished images, selected by our team, plus the remainder of the images from the shoot with a light skin filter applied. Inquire HERE.
What should I wear?
COORDINATE WITH YOUR FAMILY, DON’T MATCH.
Plan your outfits around a color scheme. For spring I love seeing brighter colors - teal, green, blue, and pink. During Fall I suggest earth tones, hunter green, navy, maroon and grey. When picking out tops, it’s best to stick with solid colors with pops of pattern. If everyone is wearing pattern, the visuals get confusing. Small floral prints or stripes are great as the base layer, then add a solid jacket on top of it.

CONSIDER THE FIT
Fitted is better than baggy. We often try to hide our bodies under loose-fitting clothing, but with photos, you actually want to avoid that at all costs. Loose clothing adds dimension to the unwanted areas. I promise to pose everyone in flattering ways! Adding a jacket or a scarf are great ways to cover “problem” areas without wearing baggy clothing.
What about the weather?
We shoot pretty much no matter what the weather is. Overcast days make for some of the very best photos and wind makes for magical movement. If we are experiencing a downpour, heat advisory, or severe snow storm, Ivory House will make the reschedule call on the day of the shoot. You will not be charged another session fee when rescheduling for the weather.
What is the turn around time for photos? 
At Ivory House Photography, we aim for a speedy turnaround time and you can expect your photos within 7-10 business days of your shoot. You will receive a Playbook link with your images, lightly polished and in color and black and white. If you find you absolutely love an image, but would like a little additional polishing for your annual Christmas card, please reach out. We polish additional images for $50 each.
I have a question about accessibility. 
Please let me know if anyone has mobility issues, attention issues, or disabilities. I’m well equipped to accommodate all scenarios but would love advanced warning to put your concerns at ease and advise accordingly on the best locations and parking spots.
Can I change my time after I book?
We allow 1 reschedule, to another family mini session date, but a $50 reschedule fee will be applied.
